Three American Dollars Spark Hidden India Mission

A letter recounts a village Christmas play staged by ten Indian boys aided by three dollars donated for missions. The troupe crafted costumes from local fabrics, performed daily for a week, and used a makeshift setup to present the Christmas story to about five hundred villagers, with lasting impact evident in the boys’ renewed zeal and prayerful reflection. The writer notes dust, travel weariness, and the driver’s surprise conversion as part of the journey.
