Lunch with Pastor Anbuannan and Family

After surveying some of the home types for construction, we headed to Pastor Anbuannan’s house for a quick lunch before heading to Chennai to catch our train to Salem. Pastor Anbuannan has a wife and three beautiful children, and we were served rice, broiled fish and beef curry. The really fun thing is that they also served us spoons with our plates (most South Indian cuisine is just eaten with fingers… no silverware), which was funny because I’m so used to eating with my fingers here that I almost didn’t know how to approach it with a spoon. As with all of our Indian brothers and sisters, their hospitality is absolutely legendary, and were treated to the absolute best of the best of everything that they had. From a ministry point of view, Pastor Anbuannan oversees more than 100 churches in the surrounding area, and operates continually for the benefit of literally hundreds and hundreds of believers in Purpose Driven churches throughout his area. This man truly is a “Super Pastor”, and we are grateful to know him!
