Well, it seems like one of those times that an update is in order.
Yesterday was my hardest day in Thailand so far. My team mate, room mate, friend and ministry partner Fauna returned to America. Because of complications with her Father's health she discerned it was best for her to be with her family at this time. It was an incredibly hard good bye. Please pray for Fauna and her family as they walk through this incredibly difficult time.

After dropping Fauna off at the airport the reality of what her leaving meant for our team hit me. Our team has been functioning almost as 2 teams within a team. Fauna and I doing our main ministry in Bang Saen and Diana and Michelle focusing on ministry in Ang Sila. Therefore, I've spent pretty much 24 hours a day with Fauna for the last 6.5 months. Her leaving means essentially every part of my life will change. Our team had a meeting about what ministry would look like for me now that I am alone. Please pray for our team as we continue to seek God about what our last month of ministry will look like one team member short.
Another major change that happened yesterday was that my entire life was packed up into suitcases, bins and garbage bags and dumped at the church. We decided it wasn't good for me to live in my apartment alone, and to get my deposit back, I had to move out immediately. So, with the help of my team, Carmen (one of our missionary hosts) and 2 Thai friends we cleared out in less than an hour.

So, I will end with a request for prayer. Our whole team is in a time of transition, but any change that occurs will directly effect me. Please pray that as we decide on living arrangements, ministry roles and as we relearn how to function as a team, God will give us clarity about what to do, and that we will have an abundance of grace for one another.
As always, thank you so much for your continual support and prayers! I am so grateful.
