Letter from the Neyyar Dam

With Tom being in Australia, we have the opportunity to work more with some other partners in India. One of these is Pastor Wilson, who lives in an idyllic spot on the shores of the Neyyar Dam. Like Tom, a number of people come to him for help, and he does what he can. We recently sent him some money for various purposes, and he has given us this report of how he used that money (a Rupee is just over a penny – so as you can see a little money goes a long way in India):
