So the L/ord has been so faithful in His ways. My passport arrived about 2 days ago, even though it wasn’t supposed to come in until the 26th, so we were able to keep our original travel arraingments and the team will be able to stay together. This country has been very interesting, yet much needed for our team. We have really gotten to spend a lot of time together and learn things we should have already known. Being in a closed country has been hard, not being able to p/ray at meals, except for “Thanks Big Guy for the grub” have our b/ibles out or talk about c/hristianity or just be able to stop and p/ray. It has given me a new perspective on how great it is to live in the US and have that kind of freedom.
We are officially in the rainy season here and I have none of my rain gear…go figure. We were able to leave some things we didnt think we would need at the YWAM base in bangkok so I left my rain gear and some other things because it has probably rained once since we have been on the race. So I have learned my lesson in that…always be prepared; right mom 🙂 The country we are in is one of the last Asian countries that has not been totally weternised and it has been nice to be in a city and not see chain restaurants or starbucks. There is a local cofee shop here we have pretty much made our second home, ecspecially since we are all 7 staying in one guesthouse room. Yeah; I dont really want to go there… It is a beautiful town though, right on the Mekong River Valley with restaurants on the river and night markets selling homemade goods. Asia has been an amaizing continent and I will be sad to leave it but I absolutley can’t wait for Africa. We leave June first so keep us in your thoughts and p/rayers. We don’t even know exactly where we are going yet, just that we will fly into South Africa. Thanks for all of your posts; I enjoy hearing from you and reading them. Peace love nd Blessings.
