This is just some more info about Thailand and how it all started. Well about 4-5 months ago when I was praying, I started having dreams and visions of these people that I had never met or even heard of before. I felt like I knew them and was friends with them even though I had never met them before. It also seemed like I shared in their sufferings (for lack of a better word) as well, which has never happened to me with so many people at once before. So after about 3 weeks of of these dreams and visions of these people I go to youth group one night and a guy named Pa
ul was there giving a presentation about the Karen Hill tribe refugees in northern Thailand. About as soon as I saw the photos of the refugees and what he was speaking about I knew that these were the people that I had been dreaming about. So I continued to pray for them after this, finally knowing who I was praying for. And I guess it was less than a month later when everyone was soaking at youth that I got this really clear message that I was going to be going to Thailand in the near distant future to work with and
live (foriegners aren't actually allowed to stay over night in the camps, Thai rules) with the Karen Hill tribe as much as possible. Also that I would be there for sereval months. So I kept praying into it and talked about it with many other people and God kept opening doors to enable me to go, and others have confirmed that I should go. In fact, no one so far has said anything against it, except my mother and that was only in concern to how long I was going over for. So when I finally get over there, I am not 100% sure of what excatly I am going to be doing, except I do have some contacts in Thailand and I already have my place to stay all worked out. I guess I will just have to trust God that when I get there I won't be there in vain (and that is fine by me). Well praise to God that I am given the oppurtunity to serve Him and trust Him. These are some photos of the Karen, courtesy of
