In the know.

Feeling left out, here's the solution! Allow me to fill you in on life... at least as far as it relates to me, my Thailand trip and the things surrounding. Sounds selfish, eh?


Some of you may have already heard this little spiel in my support letters; but if not, here is a brief description of my Thailand trip...
God has presented me with the opportunity to participate in a volunteer abroad program through the organization Proworld to Chiang Mai, Thailand. I will be departing from Denver on July 11, 2012 and returning from Thailand on August 8, 2012. I will be traveling alone to join a group of volunteers, staff, and residents to serve the people in and around the Chiang Mai area. The first week will consist of partnering with a local women’s shelter to teach English and do various projects with the girls. The following week I will be traveling to a mountainside village to support the local anti-trafficking organization and the government clinic staff in providing basic health care and education to the villagers. For the third week, I will travel back to Chiang Mai to work with a local school in providing English classes, as well as basic health training. I will be living in the local shelter for the first and last week and with a hill tribe homestay for the second week. Weeks one and three will also consist of Thai language classes to gain better communication with the people I will be serving. The weekends are left relatively open for the volunteers to have a break and do some exploring. I am taking an additional 3 days after the program ends to do some traveling in the area with another girl on the team. No worries family, I, uh, know self defense. But more reliable than my skills: God is sovereign.

Blessed.
