Arriving in India
February 05, 2009
Early this morning we arrived at the airport in New Dehli. It was warm inside the terminal. We came from real winter weather in Bergen and snow was pouring down. Our flight was cancelled. The next flight we were put on was delayed. But praise God for the good service of SAS at Copenhagen, they took us by car through the entire airport to the departing gate. The gate were about to close, but we was able to reach in time.
In New Dehli airport lots of construction work is going on. We went by bus to the domestic terminal and flew by Kingfisher Airlines to Jaipur. Here we were welcomed by our longstanding friend Zephry. He took us to the hotel and updated us on the situation for the covenant community here. It is always such a joy to be with Zephry. God has joined us together by heart and spirit and just being together is pure pleasure.
We will stay in India for two weeks before we move on to Nepal for two weeks. Håkon Pettersen, the youth pastor from Kristent Fellesskap in Bergen will join us for the trip to Nepal as well as Zephry. From Nepal we go back to India for one more week before we return to Norway the 10th of March.
