2 Churchs

Today I was woken up by loud music from outside. Apparently today and tomorrow are Hindu festival days. They will sacrifice animals in belief that doing this will take way their sins for the year.
After breakfast we went to a big church for a Sunday service. They had communion and I gave my testimony after they prayer over me. After me Prakash got up and gave his testimony. When the pastor got up to speak he spoke about how the church will be celebrating 25 years and that they will have a celebration on August 9 (I was later invited to go).  It is anticipated that there will be 10,000 people there come from all over.
After the service we sat down for lunch. They had made me pepper mutton, pepper goat, which was very good. After eating I sat down with the pastor for a short time.
Next we went to another church. This one was much smaller. I once again gave my testimony and Prakash spoke a message in Telugu. I also got to hear the testimony of one of the women in attendance. Once that was done I took pictures with many people.
Once the place had cleared out we left to go to someone's home. While there I took the time to rest while everyone else had dinner. During this time the power went out due to the rain. I am told that this is a common thing to have happen as they cut the power to the powerlines when It rains. Why?...I have not a clue.
With that the long day was over and we went to where we will be staying for the night. With me being so tired I am sure I will sleep very soundly. Tomorrow I have heard that we are traveling out of Hyderabad and over to Prakash's village.
