I want to express my deep gratitude to the Lord for allowing me to come to India these past 16 years. It has been a wonderful experience to be welcomed into so many homes and churches in Orissa. I came to love the leaders here and have a deep respect for their faithfulness and dedication to the Lord. I always leave with sense of wonder at what the Lord has done over these past few years, pouring out His Spirit and His grace upon us again and again. The tribal people are especially dear to me. They are a good a noble people who have been touched by God. People see their poverty by we see how rich they really are. God has blessed them in so many ways, causing me to give thanks that He has allowed me to be part of what He had planned for this country from the beginning of time. We are seeing His hand at work even now, raising up the next generation who will take the Kingdom of God even further than we have seen it grow. May God richly bless India with every spiritual blessing! Penn Clark
