Navratri & Durga Puja

Navratri began on Friday and Durga Puja begins today. These holidays are usually celebrated with a lot of pomp and excitement. Because of the Commonwealth Games, they are only allowed to have small celebrations for these holidays until after the Games are finished. Usually there are about 400 registered pujas (worship times) in Delhi. People will be worshiping the goddess Durga during this time. The name "Durga" in Sanskrit means: "the inaccessible" or "the invincible." Please pray for those that are worshiping Durga during this time. Help them to see that she is inaccessible. Please pray that Christians of Delhi will share Jesus with them! Help them to show and tell how they can have a personal relationship with Jesus! Pray that many Hindus will come to Jesus at this time!
