Reality hits hard when you decide to finally face what's coming. I'm not sure that I had been avoiding the fact that I am done school in 3 weeks, that I have 10 assignments to finish, and that in 40 days I will be in Thailand... But I feel like I've taken a hit in realizing that this is coming fast.
I had a wonderful introductory conversation with Peter Dove yesterday morning. Peter is the founding missionary, along with his wife Cavelle, of Imagine Thailand. I have yet to meet him in person, and after our conversation I am very much looking forward to it! We discussed various ministries of IT that I will be involved with while I'm there, when I can come, how long, exactly, I'll stay, where I'll live when I'm there... Answers to pressing questions!
In the next week or so I need to book flights, apply for a visa, look into the necessary vaccines, complete an absurd amount of paperwork, contact my supervisors in Mae Sot, and continue with the fundraising. So much. So little time.
WANT TO BE INVOLVED?
I am looking for several people to commit to being part of my prayer team as I'm getting ready to go, but especially while I'm on the field. Interested?
I am also still fundraising, as I have already mentioned, several times. I have $2346 pledged, and hopefully that will come in within the next week or so, but I still need $2654-$3500 in the next month. I've asked people who want to donate to commit to at least $100. Interested?
Stay tuned for more updates as the departure date nears!
