Thailand!!!

I'm leaving for Thailand on June 29th!!!

I'll be there for one month with a team of 5 students and 2 staff teaching the Bible in Chiang Rai and Mae Sot!

Here is a link for some current news regarding the protests in Bangkok.

I wanted to add some photos of the areas where I will be, but to avoid copyright issues, I have included the links to their owners' flickr pages. This is the bummer of never having been there yet!!!
Here is Chiang Rai and here is Mae Sot.

We will be staying in Bangkok 2 days for cultural orientation, then we will head to Chiang Rai for the majority of our trip, and also will spend several days in Mae Sot.

In Chiang Rai we will be staying at a boarding school, where we will be serving, teaching, and learning I am sure! We will also be traveling to various hill tribes in the north.

In Mae Sot we will be working with Burmese and Karen Refugees near the border of Thailand and Myanmar.

Until then, I've got less than 3 weeks left of School, then I will have studied all 66 books of the Bible!!! We graduate June 19th, then have some prep time to get our teaching stuff together, then we're off to Thailand 10 days later!

Bless you all, thanks for your prayers and please keep in touch!
