Moving onward: Mini Blog

 

After our debrief on Ko Samet I headed to Kanchanaburi with Ashley, Marissa, and Tara. We spent the past week living on a farm in the jungle and helping out wherever we could. Our time there was wonderful (blogs to come) but now we’re back in Bangkok which can only mean one thing… our time in Asia is drawing to a close. Tomorrow evening we’re flying to Johannesburg, South Africa to continue God’s work on continent number three. Please pray for safe travel to S. Africa and also to Swaziland (our stop for the month of December). Pray for closure on the past 3 months in Asia and for a refreshed and renewed spirit to keep going as we near the halfway point.
