| Before I went to Thailand I went to Tx for training where I got to spend time with my friend Melanie and also Jewels my friend who was on my Poland trip who both went on Kenya B that summer. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Shanna Banna and I haven't even been on a trip
together but the year I went to Poland she and I sorta hit it off and then when I went to Thailand we met up again in GV.
Heather Brady..(last name is only because that's what I call her)..was on my Poland trip only not on my team. She and I have gotten to know each other better though e-mailing and all then we did on the trip. She is so sweet and I thank God for her friendship.

The Teams and My Leaders
|
Katie and Mike were th Project Direstors(Pd's) for both Thailand teams trip B. There job is to keep up with all the money and to keep Teen Mania informed
on what's happening on the trip and tons more.
|
Kim and Bill in Gv at the end of the trip. They were my team leaders(tl's) and Bill had a beard the whole trip untill this day he shaved it off.:)
|
Here is everyone who was on the other team in Thailand at the same time as me. There team name was Carpe-Diem. I know it's blury but I don't have any better ones cause I wasn't on the team.
|
My whole team at the Grand Palace. Our team was called IwoJima.
|
Mix match pictures of us all over.
|
The guys were great eventhough we slightly out numberd them.:) Starting on the left.. Jeff,Brian(the Ma),Micah,Josh,and Andrew. This was taken at the Grand palace just like the team picture was.
|
This was taken at one of the schools after we had done the drama. The flowers on our costumes were gifts from the students for us. Once again just proves how sweet the Thai people are. With me is Andrea who was in my MIG and we became really close.
|
Kit,Me,Vicki,Shana,and Jen all at the Grand Palace. It was so beautiful but very sad at the same time seeing just how lost these people really are was heart wrenching.
|
This is a picture of the best MIG of the life... mine:) A mig just means ministry group that goes all together out after the drama to talk to and pray for people. Sarah Dean(back) was our leader and then there was Andrea(front)Shana(beside her)
and Andrew(the only guy). This was taken in the great Garden Valley TX... don't know why it turned out bad.. guess cause I can't take pictures and I double exsposed it.
|
The Thai People
|
This was in one of our base churches. We put on loud music and all the kids came in swarms. They were so precious and I love this picture.
We are all w/o shoes cause in Thailand you can't wear shoes inside unless you want to be a disgrace....cause feet are considerd bad.
|
This is Vicki with one of the Thai kids at that same church. The yellow mark on her face is from where I scrached the picture, it's not always there.
|
This was taken at one of the many Thai schools we went to and did the drama. All Thai people especially the kids love having there picture taken so if you want to make them happy, just take out your camera. :0)These kids are so precious and I will never forget them.
|
Here again since the kids liked pictures I pulled mine out as another way to break down the culture walls. This time was at one of the schools on our village trip and translators were lacking. We did the drama two times at that same scool for 2 different groups of a thousand kinds both times. The responce(raising of hands) to the Net(salvation message) that my TL gave wasn't good at all. This was pretty discouraging and since we didn't know Thai and didn't have many translators
we tried to come up with other ways to show the kids the love of Christ. They were really nice to us though even if we didn't see all that much result right then. The gave us flower wreaths and wanted our auto graph and all that kind of stuff.
