At the end of March I was able to visit the north India state of Bihar, along with several other people.  We have supported the work of the Bihar OutReach Network (BORN) for more than ten years.  When BORN started there were few people working to share the gospel in Bihar, which has over 100,000,000 people.  Today more than 200 agencies are working there -- some from India and others from a variety of countries.  The dream of BORN to see Bihar move from the "graveyard" to the "vineyard" of mission outreach is being realized!  BORN is going through some changes now, but our team believes that God is working in Bihar in many new and creative ways today, through BORN as well as other groups.  What encouraged us the most was to see the emergence of leadership among the Biharis themselves, as they seek to spread the good news of Jesus in ways that see his kingdom come.  May God continue to multiply those efforts and bring much fruit!
