This morning I head to the airport to begin my journey to Chiang Mai, Thailand. The first (16 hour!) flight will take me to Dubai where I will spend about 12 hours. It will be nice to have a shower and a rest in the hotel room that is included with my ticket! The next step is a flight to Bangkok where I will catch a flight to Chiang Mai.
The purpose of my trip will be to attend a conference. Global leaders and member representatives in Wycliffe and SIL International will gather for ‘once every four year’ meetings. As Pacific Area Communications Coordinator this will be an opportunity for networking with colleagues around the world. Important decisions will be made in these meetings and being there will help me to be able to share with our region.
I’d appreciate prayers for my time away.
- please pray for our family as we are separated
- pray for journeying mercies
- pray for important decisions that will be made in these meetings
- pray that I will be able to do my job well
Praying for you. If you happen to run into Mike and/or Rhonda Cochran tell them hello for me if you think of it. They are friends of mine and I haven’t seen them in quite a while. PS. Finally got that mission board completed. Love ya–Barbara
