The Wandering Disciple

It's crazy to think that after a few more hours working at the Ban Pong Center, our team will hop on a plane and start our 30+ hour journey home. The last 8 days has been an overwhelming experience for all of us on the team. I was a little worried that our team wouldn't be able to bond, really experience Thailand, or have an intimate experience with Christ in such a short amount of time, but boy was I wrong!



We've only just begun... This trip has brought our team together in a way I… Continue

I can't believe it! Our Thailand trip has been such a blast but it's been flying by so quickly. Today was the first day that we haven't had a schedule jammed packed with activities.

So tonight looks much like a typical night at home. Kristina is doing loads of homework, and I'm working from home. The only difference about tonight is that TOMORROW WE LEAVE FOR THAILAND!!!!!



We are so stoked! You don't even know! Our bags are packed, I have a tiny list of some last min items I need to pick up tomorrow, and after a few hours (2 DAYS!!!!) of travel time we will be in Chiang Mai Thailand!



I can already taste the spicy Awesome food! Here's a quick overview of… Continue
