A night in Bangledash

Friday night our friends the Parshals came over for an evening with us and our RUF students. Julie cooked a delicious and authentic Indian feast. They served in Bangledash for 21 years as missionaries and had some amazing stories to tell us as we sat shoeless on our living room floor eating fine cuisine with our fingers. Phil shared his testimony and spoke of the Lords work in his and Julie's life, and as one student put it, it was such an "edifying" night. You can't help but be inspired by this couple as you hear about the Lord's work in and through them both. Julie dressed me in a Sari and she wore one throughout the evening, I felt just like Jasmine and I am contemplating starting a sari wearing trend in Uptown.


And if you're thinking man is Carrie pregnant here, allow me to calm your fears, no I am not. The sari is more than six yards long and tucked into my pants in the front, so no that is not a baby bump.
