While I’m doing yoga every day, Nan talks about wanting to go to a service at the village church in Benaulim. It’s a huge, modern white building that was built surprisingly recently. It’s one of the main local landmarks and everyone we speak to is very proud of it. However, we also learn that the service starts every morning at six o’clock. The people here are obviously more dedicated than those at home. I don’t really know anyone who goes to church, but I definitely know even fewer people who would go to church at six in the morning. They might not even make it to a really hipster exercise class at that sort of hour.

We visit a lot of churches over the course of our trip, but we never make it to a service. I tell Nan that she doesn’t need to worry. I think she probably gets a free pass for skipping church for a few weeks. She is unfailingly kind to everyone we meet, and endlessly patient with me, who can be moody and annoying to the point of total ungodliness.

So, although she does not pay him an official visit the whole time we are in India, I am pretty sure that her god will not hold it against her.
