Long-time readers may remember my sister, Judy, from my post last spring when I shared about her trip to the tea plantations of Sri Lanka. She enjoyed immensely visiting the tea ladies at a large tea plantation. She went out into the fields with them while they were harvesting tea leaves and also shared lunch time with them. I really appreciated all the pictures she brought back for me, as she knows I adore tea and how it is presented and served. Sis and her family are again on a mission trip. This month they are spending several weeks in a remote area of the Philippines and then will be visiting a mission in Indonesia for a week before they return home. Your prayers for them would be so appreciated. . .both for their safety and that they may be of service to those they are sharing the gospel with. I know they will come home with many interesting and exciting stories: they always do. Sis is traveling with her husband and her son, Matthew (shown in this picture with her above).

I will gladly send up petitions for your sis and her family. I do hope they have a fulfilling trip. How exciting for them! I hope we get to hear more about their trip when they return.
ReplyDeleteI know they will be a blessing from God where ever they go.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing family you have. Mission trips aren't for everyone and I know that God will bless them and those receiving His message.
ReplyDeleteLove,

Consider them prayed for! Can't wait for an update of God's work through them!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! I will pray that the mission trip is a very successful one and that everyone involved will be kept healthy and safe.
