The purpose of our Journey is to introduce us to the Church(s) in India and the context that it finds itself in. We will be studying the distinct and complex socio-cultural, political, and religious landscapes of South India. We will be exposed to three large Church traditions: Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox as we struggle to understand our place and our contribution in the complex soci-cultural, political and religious landscape. *Taken from the Class Syllabus*
We are scheduled to visit three major cities in India: Chennai, Madurai and Kottayam.
I hope that you stay tuned in to see and hear about what we are experiencing...and trust me when I say that you will be hearing much more than just about the food we are eating or how nice the people are. We are embarking on a "Journey Through India" and I believe that it will be life changing not only for us but for the people that we will meet.
Namaste - God's Peace Go With Us

Fellow Traveler
p.s. The weather is not to bad there either...
Dear God, preserve your servants as they travel across the world with all our friends from Eden Semnary; surround them with your loving care; protect them from every danger; and bring them safely to their journey's end, and after being there in your presence, return them safely to us, with renewed knowledge and understanding of your love for all peoples. Amen
