Good morning |first_name|, 

What are your plans for connecting your Hindu friends to Jesus this month?

March 8 is Holi -- the festival of colours. 

On this day Hindus may safely interact with people of any caste.  "There are no enemies on Holi".  It is a time of fun, celebration and forgiveness.

Here are some ideas:

1. Give your HIndu friends a Holi Greeting Card which features the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant  (Matthew 18:21-35).
2. Arrange a time to talk about the message of the card:  "Sometime I would like to get your opinion of what Jesus taught about forgiveness.  Would you be up for that?"
3. The card has a link to an email series that goes through the book of Matthew. If your friend is interested in the email series, sign up yourself so you can talk about it when you next meet.
4. See if your friend is interested in discovering what Jesus said about other topics.

Can I pray for you before I go?

I would like to pray with you today:

||BeginMale||"Lord Jesus, I thank you for |first_name|.  I pray that you will open up doors for him to talk about Jesus with his Hindu friends.  Let him be both bold and sensitive.  I pray that you will soften the hearts of his Hindu friends so that they will want to discuss what Jesus taught about forgiveness.  May they also be open to exploring other topics that Jesus taught about.  We look forward to the day when these friends become followers of the Lord Jesus.   We will give you all the praise for you what do through |first_name|. Amen." ||EndMale||

||BeginFemale||"Lord Jesus, I thank you for |first_name|.  I pray that you will open up doors for her to talk about Jesus with her Hindu friends.  Let her be both bold and sensitive.  I pray that you will soften the hearts of her Hindu friends so that they will want to discuss what Jesus taught about forgiveness.  May they also be open to exploring other topics that Jesus taught about.  We look forward to the day when these friends become followers of the Lord Jesus.   We will give you all the praise for you what do through |first_name|.

||BeginUnknown||"Lord Jesus, I thank you for the opportunities you have given us to tell people about you.  I pray that you will open up doors for us to talk about Jesus with our Hindu friends.   Let us be bold and sensitive.  I am looking forward to how you will be changing us and answering our prayers for the salvation of the people we talk with.  We will give you all the praise for you what do through us. Amen."||EndUnknown||

I would love to hear how people receive your message and how I can pray for you.
