Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year



As we look back over this past year we are filled with gratitude for the faithfulness of God and the opportunity to serve others in His great Name. The children of India have captured our hearts!  “Cry Of India” is the vehicle that the Lord has provided for us to reach destitute, hopeless and deprived children and their parents with the Hope that there in is in Jesus Christ.  A basic education, nutritious food, simple health care and spiritual nurturing makes all the difference.

2012 has been another year of transition! In mid Dec. last year, Janice’s mom at 98 passed in to the presence of Christ.  In late August 2012, We moved from Springfield (Nixa), MO, to Fishers, IN to be closer to Darryn & Loree and family and Erika & Jon and their family. Our 9 grandkids are growing up fast! Our Cry of India office is also here in Fishers, which makes it very easy for us.

In July, Don spent 3 weeks in India with our Director, David Cawston, to visit schools and key National Leaders of our mission work there. Millions of children live in desperate circumstances in villages, towns and cities in that vast country. Our job is to do what we can to change the destiny of India’s children, “one child at a time.” With our partners help, this is miraculously happening!

God has been good! Both of us are doing well with no major concerns. Kim and Greg and their family, from Chanhasen, MN, are expected to be with us over Christmas. We are blessed to have our entire immediate family close by for over Christmas. Words were in adequate to express the love and thankfulness we feel for you, our loving family and sincere friends. Your prayers and support enable us to fulfill God’s calling with joy and hope.

Our confident prayer for you is that “he who began a good work in you will complete it to the day of Christ Jesus.  Janice and I want to thank you for your interest to stay connected with us. We sincerely love and appreciate you and would love to hear from you. Find us both on Facebook.com for Don or Janice for postings and pictures. We have a lovely private guest room and bathroom waiting for you should you be passing through Indianapolis! 

May you be blessed and have a prosperous and truly Happy New Year! 
Don & Janice Scheske
