Upon returning home Marlyn continued to pray for these women in India. About a year after her returned from India, she felt a calling to send a team of women to India – through HI – to show the Dalit ladies what it meant to be a Daughter of the King (DOK). Her vision was to send a team comprised entirely of women to serve and encourage the Ashraya girls and Elder women, pamper them, build relationships and pray together. Nothing like this had even been proposed to Harvest India (HI) before… never had a team of only women come, and never had the focus been on the women, to build fellowship, to be together, united as Daughters of the King! (DOK). She wasn’t sure how it would happen or who would lead – but she continued on through prayerful team selection and preparation. Marlyn prayed over our church directory for about 4 months, seeking names of women she should approach. She ended up with a team of 11, and found God was calling her to lead the team– the first DOK team met for nearly a year for prayer, relationship building in the team, and to hear God’s word for this fellowship mission.
