Cathy is director of admissions for Woodstock School in India, a Christian International school which has approximately 465 students from 25 countries. She also looks after a group of high school students who come to Woodstock for a year under the SAGE (Studies Abroad for Global Education) program, helping them make the transition from the U.S. or Europe to India and life at a boarding school. Cathy sees whatever she is asked to do as an opportunity to witness to Christ’s love. “We can know that God’s goodness will reach many places we cannot go through the lives and Christian witness of many of these young people,” she says.

The students, grades one through 12, attend Woodstock School from around the world. About 40 percent of the students are from non-Christian homes. The strong Christian emphasis at Woodstock ensures that every student is exposed to the Gospel through Bible classes, chapels, residence devotions and Christian activities offered during their time of study there.

 She writes: In early February Woodstock reopened for the start of the second semester.  The day school started God showered us with snow! I welcomed a new staff member to help in the admissions office.  She is a gift from God who is already taking on some of the work load. 

 At the end of February I headed to Surat in south India for another education exhibition.  It was a good experience as I talked with a number of parents seeking a good school for their children.

I recently returned from Korea, Thailand and Vietnam.  I went to talk with parents and interview and test students who have applied for a place at Woodstock.  What a privilege to be a part of what God is doing – to share with young people and their parents who will take what they have heard and learned to so many parts of the world.

 It is good to be ‘home’ at Woodstock for a time now talking with prospective students and their families and working with families whose children are preparing to join Woodstock for the next school year which begins in August.  In mid April I am looking forward to attending the annual meeting of the Council of Baptist Churches of North East India.

• Thank you for your continued prayers and support.  These are difficult times for many.  Your continued encouragement is very much appreciated.
• Please continue to pray and support the work here among young people.
• Pray for Cathy as she serves the students and their families in the name of Jesus/
