Thought I would just throw up some pictures of life here in Bangalore. We seem to be staying in one of the better "middle class" areas of the city. Indian society has a very rigid class system which I find I difficult to cope with sometimes. The people at the bottom seem to be existing on a few pence a day while at the other end, shops are stacked with the very latest high technology, mobile phones, cameras and HD televisions costing hundreds and thousands of pounds.
Have met a Christian guy here from Northern Ireland, Deane Lappin, who has been here for a number of weeks. He's a schoolteacher and has been helping out at Asha Kiran school and doing some travelling around India. He's from Aughnacloy. He's moving on to Dubai on Sunday.
I'm preaching again on Sunday and then going to a wedding on Sunday evening.
Lilian has been helping in the school and has been introducing some people to "Precept" Bible studies.
Still hot here. Tomorrow is a day off, and Prem comes back from a conference up in North India. Rita is holding the fort, cooking for everyone and making sure we don't get "ripped off" in the shops!
