Every year my church hosts an international dinner. It's a chance for our church to reach out to foreigners in Indianapolis and share the gospel. Not only did I get to meet a few, I also got to try a variety of different foods: Mangos, tofu pasta salad, spicy Chinese chicken and hot Indian Curry. Also, I had some delicious Indian naan bread which everyone must try at least once in their lifetime. It's a little piece of heavenWhen the guests started arriving they each came with a traditional dish from their country. This year we had a lot of Chinese. Most of the time I don't really know what to say to them when I meet them. My goto questions are: Asking their name. Of course it's often hard to pronounce but it's better to try and mess up than not ask at all. Then, where are they from. Even though you might think you know, It's better to be safe and ask, than just assume. I smile when they ask me what country I'm from. I would love to respond with some exotic country like El Salvador, the only place I've been outside the US. But I always say, "The incredible city of Indianapolis."
One of our Church members from India shared his testimony with a great slide show. He also shared this video that he called a good representation of India. But after being around all those wonderful people I started getting excited about Sophomore year. Taylor has a decent amount of International students. I can't wait to get to know them and hear their stories.
