Karen Team Arrives!

General FBC Missions, Karen Project Team 2008 February 5th, 2008 by Elizabeth

The following is a letter from Brett;

Greeting from Chaing Mai, Thailand.

The trip was long but uneventful, I sat next to Bill Voorhees on our 15 hour flight from SF to Hong Kong, great guy but we are both are a bit wider in the shoulders than the average traveler to Hong Kong, so sleep and comfort escaped me… Bill slept like a baby. Next time I will sit next to Todd or Steve and have plenty of room.

All the medical supplies made it through, gigli saws, forceps, suture, stethoscopes and assorted other small tools. We are humbled when the tools we bring to help in amputations from land mines are so treasured and welcomed. It gives a guy a little perspective on how blessed our lives really are. We hope that our time here can make a difference in the lives of others.

We will leave this AM for Mae Sot which will serve as our home for the next 8 days. We have a number of treks planned to see works already established and ministering to the needs of the Karen people. Keep us in your prayers and we will try to keep you updated.

In Christ,

Brett for Steve, Todd, Bill
