In Malaysia!

Hello from Kuching, Malaysia!

All the money came through for me to be able to come on outreach with my team. Sorry for not updating sooner.

We have been here for three amazing weeks and have five more to go. The people here are lovely and we have been having an amazing time building relationships and trying all sorts of different foods. Both Chinese and Malay people live here, making for an interesting blend in belief systems ranging from; Hindi, Buddhist, Muslim, Christian, and animism.

It has been such a joy to get to know the lovely people here. We have been able to help serve by cleaning yards, helping around the house where we are staying, selling layer cakes (kek lapis) for a sweet little lady, letting them show us around and feed us, and helping to put up a net for a single mother at her farm.

God has been teaching me so much and been moving in amazing ways. He has protected us, given us favor, provided finances, given so many open doors, and still had time to teach me sone important lessons.

I love following after my Lord and Father. He is continually reminding me to place him first, to listen to his voice, to trust in his unfailing love, and to be patient to see where he is leading me.

Please pray for me and the other eight members of our team as we:
Seek God for our time here
Build relationships with the friends we have made and the ones we will meet
Good health (some have been struggling with colds and stomach aches)
And motivation as we are surrounded by the distractions of being a tourist and just letting the time pass.

Thank you so much for reading and for all your prayers. I will try to post more and with more detail.

God bless!
