hey all,
I dont have a lot of time before dinner but I thought i would updte you a little bit about how life has been turned upside down. after 30 hours of travelling and skipping over thursday bc we crossed the date line I finally got to bangkok. Its crazy and insane. The people and traffic and city are not my kind of thing, but i'm learning to embrace it and see the beauty behind the first impressions. Surprisingly, I'm the only one that is not enjoying the Thai food, I guess I got picky with food over night, but all i get excited about is the toast and pb in the morning when it comes to food. oh and the pineapple here is amazing. Today we went on temple tours we took buses, sky trains, tuktuks, and boats to get around which was kinda fun. the tuktuks was scary though i thought i was going to fall out of it as we were being whipped around corners. its so sad to go to the temples it brings a heaviness on your heart when you see these huge idols and people worshipping them. The hardest part for me so far was going to JJ market a huge outdoor market where you can't move and just have to push your way through and it doesnt smell the greatest. You also see a lot of hurt and pain ain peoples eyes, as people follow you. Not only is the smog sufficating but the Buddist religion as well. Continue to pray for strength and courage for our team, especially in the next few days as we are going out into the sex trafficing industry and talking to men. It's going to be really challenging, also mentally and emotionally exhausting. Thank you for all your support, it means a lot to me to know that my team is being uplifted in your prayers. I have so many pictures to show you already!
