Dear Friends,
As you know from reading my India trip blog, the 2009 India Children's Choir group is currently in Calcutta, where they have been meeting with the US Consulate to try to get their visas issued.
Usually, this is a fairly easy process and is approved in a day or two.
However, this year, it has been a different story. Since I have arrived back home, here is what has happened...
The visas, which were supposed to be issued yesterday, have still not been approved, and three of the leaders have had their visas denied. The consulate has been making almost impossible demands of the group, all of which they are trying to accommodate to the best of their ability.
The choir was supposed to start the trip to the United States tomorrow, but those plans have been put on hold.
Please pray the God would soften the heart of the lady at the consulate... her name is Deborah Diller... and that the visas would be issued tomorrow, and that the choir could be on their way as soon as possible.
Our people in India are also planning to make a special appeal for the consular to reconsider at least the one leader's visa.
Pray that God would work in this situation, and if your church has a prayer chain, please consider passing this on to them. We need as many people as possible to pray.
God bless,
Michael Esh
