kind gestures
rides through town on a moped
dust

dogs in windows
ducks in houses
clothes lines on rooftops
tan skin

Please pray for us as my team will be doing anti-trafficking [bar ministry] in Phuket, Thailand for the month of December! I am so excited!! We leave for Bangkok tomorrow and travel to our ministry site on Saturday. I’ve been sick for the past few days, so you’re prayers for complete health would be awesome.
And HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I am truly thankful for my family and loved ones this year as well as the community i have around me [Love you R squad!].
Love,
