So we've been at Camp Crossroads for 4 days now but we all agree that it seems much longer. We discovered a ceiling fan in our room yesterday, and Joanna discovered when the power went out that they're powered by electricity. It's been a fun albeit rainy couple of days but today the sun is bright and shiny and I already have a little bit of a sunburn (I can only imagine what this will mean for Thailand) ... Today we learned a few Thai words, but we all seem to only be able to remember how to say "Hello" which is pronounced something like 'sawatdee kha' (or khrap instead of kha if you are a dude). Apparently we are also going to bless the groups going to Nepal, Germany, and the Congo with our loverly singing voices and Thai language abilities tonight at worship - be jealous you can't hear it ... Anywho - please keep us in your prayers as we continue to prepare for our mission in Thailand. We love you all! (or, to be more accurate - chances are that one of us cares for whoever is reading this in some way shape or form ... You'll have to decide for yourself who that someone is ...)

(p.s. we helped with breakfast this morning - hopefully we can upload a picture soon of us in our gorgeous outfits)
I feel loved! I'm sure you were a blessing to the other groups, even if your singing may not have been as successful as you may have wished! We will continue to pray for your safety and for the fellowship that you will have and are having. Watch for His leading and you'll be amazed at where you go!
