This is my favorite photo that I took during our time serving in India a few years ago. We are seated in a boat on the Ganges River. In the background you can see the holy Hindu city of Varanasi, where we lived for four months. The boat driver's name is Manooj. I'm certain that he is a Hindu. The sad thing is that despite taking western tourists for boat trips on the river, he probably rarely if ever hears the good news of Jesus Christ. This photo reminds me of the desperate need for many more missionaries to places like Varanasi where the gospel is unknown to most people. Let's do all we can to support international missions.
