We're in India! I wish I could update more often but have been very busy with not much internet access.
After leaving the JFA (Jesus For Asia) Studio in Chiang Mai Thailand, we returned to Bangkok on the night bus and one day later left Bangkok bound for Cambodia! After about 11 hours we arrived in Siem Riep at the orphanage that Tim Maddocks started. We spent 2 days there and then returned to Bangkok. But while we were there we went to Angkor Wat! We were only there for about 2-3 hours so we couldn't explore it all, but it was fun to get some pictures.
We got to Bangkok sunday night and the next evening we boarded a flight from Bangkok to Chennai, India. It has been an incredible experience to be here in India. We have 5 revival meetings going on every evening and the people are being touched. One family left us this morning to go to north India so we lost 5 people and several people on our team are getting sick, so please pray for us.
We will be here in Dharmapuri (where the meetings are being held) until next monday and then we go to visit the JFA orphanage. Then to another place to hold some more meetings and then we fly back to Bangkok on March 10. I think we'll have some sort of a retreat after that for a few days and then I start the long journey home. From when I fly out of Bangkok to when I land in Portland, is 52 hours! I fly from Bangkok, to Addis Ababa, then I have a 16 hour layover and then fly to Washington D.C. and then 1-1/2 hours to get through customs and get my bag checked in again and get to the gate. Then a flight to Chicago, and then home! I will arrive in Portland at 2:33PM on March 19.
After being in Africa working for 3-1/2 months and then traveling like we have I'm exhausted and ready to be home. But I'm doing my best to stay positive and make the most of the remainder of the trip.
