She actively participated in the WMS as the Fourth Episcopal District WMS Worship Director and participated in the preparation for the 2013 World of Women Praying Convocation, by organizing the thirty days of prayer without ceasing prayer line with powerful prayer warriors across the district. India was also one of the founding givers for the Indescribable Gift First Ladies Giving Circle, which invests in black women to impact and empower them. She is recognized in the publication Unashamed A Global Faith Formation Window to Contemporary Missionaries by Episcopal Supervisor Rev. Dr. Cecelia Williams Bryant. India has served as the Columbia Conference MSWAWO Corresponding Secretary, the Lancaster District WMS Third Vice President and supporting member of the Annie B.
