New Mission Endeavor

Imagine traveling 10,500 miles to the other side of Earth. Arriving after 40 hours of exhausting and exciting travels you step off the airplane in Hyderabad, India. Everything is different - not strange, weird or wrong - just different.
Loading into a small, cramped vehicle your driver begins making his way through the corridors of heavy traffic (cars, trucks, people, goats, 'holy' cows, chickens and babies) at breakneck speeds.
In time you find yourself one and a half hours outside this city of 8 million people (almost all Hindu or Muslim). You've arrived... It is the place where we, Living Stones, has been (January 2005, August 2006, and January 2007).
It is not a place of fame. As a matter of fact only a few know of it. It is a precious orphange moved outside the city due to persecution. It sits on a piece of land purchased by one of our sister churches. It is not a usual orphange. It is a special needs place. A place where precious children battling various mental and physical issues live - 33 children to be exact.
It is here that Living Stones is now prayerfully considering to adopt. While we cannot bring the children home with us, we just may partner with
Manna Worldwide in funding this place as well as blessing it with the Love of God.
Pray with us as we seek the Lord's leading... This is a blessed time.
