It is off to Thailand I go!

So by now I guess the word is out!

I AM MOVING TO THAILAND!!!!
I couldn't be more excited for the journey ahead. There has been a lot of prayer and thought going into this decision. I have had some very wise council and for that I am so very thankful!

I wanted to update you all on some of the details of my new adventure.

I have already gotten the question, "So why are you going there?" To answer that question, I am going to work at a Children's Home outside of Chiang Mai called Agape Home. Agape Home is a home for children living with or are at risk for HIV/AIDS. Agape Home has been providing a safe and loving place for children to live for almost 20 years!

My primary job while I am there is to be a caregiver, mentor and teacher. The older kids go to school everyday and while they are at school I will be helping to teach the preschoolers English. I am so excited to love on some precious children. I will also be helping the older kids with their English as well.

I will be working with the kids 6 days a week. But beyond teaching them, I cannot wait to love on them. To become their friends and to become a part of their family!

Agape Home is about 25 minutes outside of Chiang Mai and I will be living in a small community near the home. I am so excited to build community and get to know my neighbors. As far as where I will be living, I will have a volunteer unit which is like an apartment.

I know God is guiding this new adventure and I couldn't be more excited!!!
I would appreciate your prayers as I begin to fundraise, as I end my residency here in Maryland and as I get ready to move to Thailand!

Thank you in advance for your prayers and support!

Oh Darling... Lets be Adventurers.

I have been told I have the heart of a wanderer, a traveler, an adventurer.

I have the deep seeded need to see new places and meet new people.

My heart aches for places I haven't been and adventures I have yet to embark on.

When I am in one place too long I get itchy feet to travel and move.

So, that is what I am doing. I am moving once again. This time on my own, without my parents, friends and family.

My heart has been taken captive by a people I fell in love with two years ago.

I am moving to Thailand for a year. 

Just typing that puts a smile on my face.

For the next year my primary mission is to love.

To love on children who were not given a fair chance.

To love on mothers dying of HIV/AIDS.

To love on those who love others.

I cannot wait for this adventure to start!

I will post more as I know more!

God is so good!!!
