In January 1998, fifteen people from the First United Methodist Church in Wichita, Kansas traveled to India.   

In Calcutta we visited Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity center. We stood next to Mother Teresa's crypt and felt deeply touched. We held newborn babies abandoned that very day, and helped wash dirty diapers.

From there our group went to Allahabad and New Delhi, where we visited and worked at several Trees for Life projects. Here is a first-hand report of our experiences.
