Hi Tom and Chennai Team -- Hurrah!! It sounds as if you are off to a great start. A Super Blog, Tom, capturing the spirit of exuberant enthusiasm and high expectations of your Team on the one hand, and the sense of challenge and "hard work" in the humid heat which is so much a part of the Distribution experience. Give my love and regards to your wonderful Rotarian hosts. Gray Cavanagh, 31 January 2010
Technology is great, especially when it works as well as this blog site. It allows all of us "back home" an insight that only years ago would have to had to wait till your return. Look forward to veiwing and reading each of your insights, especailly Jan's. Doug Gayman, 2010/01/31
Hi Patsy and Tom and all Chennai Volunteers - My best wishes for great distributions and good times and the odd Kingfisher (perhaps), in the next few weeks. Enjoy that heat! Looking forward to seeing you in- or above -Brussels Patsy! xxxxxxxx mary-jo lang

We are delighted to be able to follow this vital distribution from our computer. Thankful to see you arrived well and look great. Praying for you all as you work with these special kids in the heat of the weather; praying they will see God's love in and through you. Helen, I'll share this with the Friday study group.
With daily love and prayers, Carol and Gerry from London Ontario Canada
Hi Tom (and the entire team),
Great to hear about how things are going for you. The description of the train ride brings back lots of memories.
Please say "hello" to our Rotary friends for me.
You and the team have been in my thoughts and prayers this week - wishing you a healthy and safe trip. Jeff McDougall
To Jan Gayman and the team-It is very exciting to see that you have arrived safely and are getting right to work.
We are so pleased to see the blog posts and photos so we can follow you on this journey.

Hi Dad (Tom)
How are you? Sorry I haven't written. Hope you and all the team are doing well. I love the pictures! You look great Dad, and team. I'm thinking of you and send you tons of love and good luck for the rest of your distribution.
Love, Pud xox
Hi Bill,
This sounds awesome and very rewarding. I look forward to pics. Enjoy! Cheryl Beyak, Vancouver
Way to go Bill. What a wonderful project. Joanie
Mrs. Gayman and Chennai Team:
Thank you for taking the time out of your rest periods (well deserved!) to give us a little taste of what life is like for you in India. Many of the reports are very touching and bring me close to tears. You are all doing very good and much-needed work, so thank you for making the world a better place. Maybe SCAW should bring some portable garbage cans with it when it travels as my fiancee would be very upset to hear that garbage is simply thrown on the ground.
I hope you're all well, and look forward to reading the next update. All the best,
Sean Simpson
Hi Gang

Great start Tom and the team. Keep up the great work.

Hi Tom and team: You seem to be working very hard and I guess that all those hours at the YMCA Gym paid off??? Compared to Ottawa the weather something else seems like two extremes!!
We wish you well on your journeys and know you will be given the strength to complete all that is thrown at you. With prayers and love,
Sholly and Lizzie

Hi, Jan and team....so enjoy reading about your experiences...what an amazing project that you are all involved in...thinking of you daily with prayers and happy thoughts...cheers! Dan and Wilma Molinaro
Thanks Tom for your report on the conversations with parents of the bedkit recipients. it is good to be reminded of the conditions of the families. It is also important for those families to realize where the gift came from - "children helping children" is a powerful message.

Hey Bill,
Love reading the blogs and getting to see a glimpse of what you volunteers are doing. Thank goodness there are generous and giving people like yourselves in the world. I am getting a real sense of life for those less fortunate than ourselves on the other side of the world.

Hi Tom
It was a real pleasure to know you and your friends. (My wife and I were in the same bay, when you were travelling to Sivakasi, 1st Feb wasn't it?)
Most of us just think well of others, wish no evil, and consider ourselves to be angels !!!
But what you guys are doing is wonderful !
Wish you and the entire SCAW team of volunteers, the very best in every venture. Keep up the good work, you are setting a great example for us to follow.
Ramesh Rajagopalan, Mumbai.
