About Us:

In February 2008, two mission teams from St Stephen’s Church, Twickenham, will travel to New Delhi, India, to each spend over a week serving the poor in the slums of this vast city. Once again, working with the Indian NGO ‘Asha’, the aim of the mission is to demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ to just some of the three million people who struggle daily to live in one of the worst environments in the world. Each group will undertake some manual work to help improve the community clinics at the centre of two slum colonies in West Delhi. We will also spend time with individuals and groups from within the slums, listening to their stories, encouraging them in all they do, performing workshops with the children and generally working with the Asha team in whatever way is helpful to bring hope into these seemingly hopeless situations.

Last day!

Hey guys, this is going to be a quick one today as we are going to leave the YWCA in about 3 hours!
Todays events was a really nice way to finish such an amazing week, we got to have a lie in (which we were all glad to have) we then went to the humayun tombs, this is where the inspiration for the taj mahal was taken (not the lodi gardens as we previously said, sorry.)
Then we came back to have lunch and get all glammed up for the big do at Kanak Durga with the opening of the clinic, was a great time yet sad to say goodbye and i'm sure that the whole team will hold this experience close to their hearts!
We'd like to say a final thank you for all of your support! we were saying earlier that even though things might be tough or we may be feeling under the weather we know we have support back home which did help brighten our spirits!
Please pray for Sarah and Chelsey as they have come down with the viral bug that seems to be coming round and that they have a comfortable journey home. Also pray for libby as she's still not top notch but is feeling slightly better. Before we forget please pray for a safe journey home.
Thanks again! God bless team two!
