Myanmar and Laos trip

Boy have we been busy! It's gonna be so strange when the team leaves and things settle back down. But for now, I'm enjoying it!

More pics from our ministries and trips-


Strange idol

Jen on her boat to Laos


There is a believer on the border of Laos that Anne visits every year when the team comes. We have seen miracles happen in her life- including her having 2 babies when she before couldnt have children! But prayer works!


Praying for Laos & the people


Anne & Mai in the speed boat


We visited a church that we helped the church build last year. It's in a village up north on our way to Burma. We visited the pastor's wife and prayed with her and some family members. Then we walked around their village and prayed for some people also.


Walking through the village with the pastor's wife


We prayed for this family. Those poor kids were SO scared of all us white people!

So that was the highlights from our trip to Burma/Laos. Burma (Myanmar) was crazy! You could instantly feel this sad/dark oppression as soon as you crossed the border. We didn't stay very long, but just wanted the team to experience it. I was glad to get out of there.

So just 1 1/2 weeks left with the team here. So hard to believe. It will be good timing because our jewelry stuff is about to pick up again with World Vision. So I'm glad we'll have that to keep us busy so we dont miss them too much ;)
