For those of you who are not on Facebook I will add what I can to this post. It isn't the best day for me to write about my first week, because I am utterly exhausted from a a long and delightful day traveling to Chaibassa. Today I am in Jamshedpur, the huge industrial city named after the first Tata industrialist. Quite a big contrast, and another day full of activities, as the church of 50 years here dedicates its new church. To say the least I am running on a thread of energy. However, I am taking advantage of the better internet here. Luckily in Ranchi It has been easy to load pictures onto Facebook and to write emails, but I couldn't even get my blog to open until now. So to take yo will share just a few photos for now. If you can get onto my Facebook page you will see so much more

NOV 2 Mission Day, celebrating the past and continuing the good work that was started. What is remarkable is how self sufficient they are. Yes support is helpful from outside, but they do not want to start anything they themselves cannot sustain.

Not much more time. But here are pictures of Chaibassa where Ferdinand and Doris Hahn lived for a year or two.
