Bangalore
I'm in Bangalore, with a mild diarrhea.
BUT I MET some fantastic people BECAUSE OF IT!
I was in adoration at the St. Patricks Church, when I heard mass starting, so I went, carrying my bags... but when I got to church, I started having stomach pain, so I left. A young gentleman, saw my discomfort and came out to see if I needed any medicines or help.
I just needed a bathroom at the time, but after mass I decided to give him my contact information. That's when we started talking and I found out about his family and he found about my pilgrimage/mission. And he introduced me to his brother and coworkers. WHO WERE AT MASS!
He then invited me to come to eat with him, and thinking we were going to a restaurant, I said sure! But instead I came to his work, where I got to meet a whole workplace full of CATHOLICS! Catholics who were striving to be Catholic, even!
He and one brother run half of the workplace as a software firm and his other two brothers are architects/interior designers.
All of whom are good Catholics... so I got the low down on local Catholic sites/shrines.
He has been so hospitable, that I can only thank God for answering my prayer. I prayed earlier today for Him to prepare a place of rest for me while in Bangalore, and due to several "God incidences". We connected and now I'm about to meet a local lay missionary.
Oh and the Chai here is GOOD!
Okay, and I have alot of pictures and blogs to post from the last few days, but I don't think I have time right now.
I'll see what I can do.
