Hey I made it to Thailand! Thailand is a crazy place. I haven’t encountered many who speak English, so this should be interesting while navigating the cities.
This morning Im sitting, sipping coffee with fellow squad mates and I realized I should check my support account. Support hasnt really been on my mind, which I thought it would consume while on the field. God has made other things important. I realize I just TRUST him that much. To live this trip allowing money to consume me is living in FEAR, Which God calls us out of. This morning I wanted to check my account and be responsible little racer. J Honestly, Im so humbled by the gifts. I scrolled through and looked at names of people whom I love dearly. Then I saw names I didnt know and names that were anonymous. Wow. Anonymous givers..yes more than one! Im honored that you all support me financially and prayerfully. Im honored that you believe in me that much and overjoyed that you trust our great God that much to pour you money into me.
My desire in this blog is for YOU to know how much I appreciate YOU. For your support, your prayers, and commitment to me and the Lord. Im thankful and grateful for what God has allowed me to do in this journey thus far. God is moving. YOU are apart of that. I hope the Lord continues to bless you. That you know your generosity is not unnoticed.
So Thailand…
This week we are having a lot of meetings. Our squad leaders and our squad parents are here to pour into us. After two months on the field, we need a little refreshment. We are meeting and catching up them and discussing any issues that may be among the team. My team and I have a few days free so we went exploring like good little ‘mericans in a foreign place. In one night we had pad thai from a street car, saw TONS of dreads on 
people, got a free hug, got invited to a nudist swimming party [please note NONE of us went to that!], got kicked by an old lady on the street, saw the King, and had a thai lady go crazy on us yelling at us to leave her store. Last night I ate a grasshopper, which surprisingly tasted not too bad�ckind of like Bar b que. Today my team has the freedom to just rest and relax a bit. I think its much needed.
In a few days my team and I will head out to our ministry site. We are working with the Tamar center in Pattaya.

Working with the prostitutes there and helping to reshape their lives. Visit the website above to learn more of this. This will be an intense month for myself and my team. Many of us have such a heart for prostitutes and sex-trafficked women/kids. Pray that we have boldness and wisdom to seek them out. To be hands and feet of Jesus and to be salt and light. Pray that the women see love and freedom.
Much love from Thailand!
