Training of Trainers (and Doers)

We are in the middle of an amazing experience of training folks from all over North India in basic Home-Care for HIV through local churches. Its heady stuff to be sharing our experiences with folks from the field. From many different fields.

We have church-planters from Sikkim, folks from a big mission hospital in Gujarat, small house-fellowship promoters from Bihar, people running an NGO in Madhya Pradesh. In short the complex and varied set of folks that God is using in various ways across our wonderful country.

All this to say: what a great opportunity to see God's love reach out to areas where people with HIV do not have care. Want a tremendous potential God has placed in each of us - each one so capable of making a huge difference if we take the path of loving obedience to what our Master desires of us.

The basic command is so simple. Love God. Love Neighbour. The basic set of humanity at our disposal is so flawed. But yet from the very beginning God has specialised in using very flawed, very simple 'salt of the earth' to make huge changes. Its a privilege to be part of this process, and to see people excited about helping others. May our inputs in training be translated into a lot of doing!
