Supplies Needed

Hello Friends,

So, I'm still fundraising and preparing for Thailand. It's getting closer every day and I am so excited. If you've been interested in helping me prepare for this trip but aren't able to help financially maybe you can help me out with some supplies! I have a list of things I need to get; maybe you have some of these items you're willing to help me out with.

  • Luggage- I have one suitcase and it's really small and not in great shape. I'm packing for 6 months of living so I'm need of some large luggage.
  • Books - I have a list of required reading and I need to obtain and read them is a semi short amount of time. If you have one of these books you would be willing to let me borrow that would be great!
    • When Helping Hurts by Steven Corbett & Brian Fikkert
    • Serving With Eyes Wide Open by David A. Livermore
    • Unearth: Exploring A Land With No Name by Christy Vidrine & Autumn Rogers
    • Buddhism In The Light of Christ by Esther Baker
    • Dreaming With God by Bill Johnson
  • Gift Cards - to pretty much anywhere. I have to purchase clothing, toiletries, notebeooks, etc for my trip so anything helps!

As of now that's my list of supplies I need, but I'm sure I'll think of more as the time gets closer. If you've traveled a lot and you have suggestions of things you think I'll need or want feel free to let me know. I'm always open for advice and anything to make the journey a little easier. Thank you all for your prayers and support!

Face To Face With Heroes Of The Faith

     Hi Everyone! Can you believe I've been in Thailand almost three weeks? It's been an amazing time or learning and adjusting so far. I am enjoying the immersion in a totally new culture. Being able to experience a new language, food, and practices is stretching and challenging at time and other times it's exciting and fun; often it's a mixture of all four. Even though they don't have a whole lot with this post I'm throwing in random pictures just so you can see what I've been up to with your own eyes.     There are six of us going through a month of training at Impact School of Missions in preparation for various internships across South East Asia. We have classes and training up until the end of the month; in October we all officially move on to our internships! Our month at ISM consists of classes involving classes on the culture, language, effective ways to minister and serve, culture shock/stress, learning about ourselves, and many more. We explore ...

The Lost Cause Part

     The name of my blog is Thailand and Other Lost Causes, that probably seems like a strange name to give this blog. Why would you call something you're passionate about, something you want to spend the rest of your life doing, something you want others to support you in a lost cause? It makes no sense...it seems counter productive, it's not I promise.      The idea for the name came from  this blog post  that I wrote almost three years ago while I was an undergrad intern at Honor Academy of The Ozarks. That post was inspired by one of my favorite quotes of all time,      "It's very often that the lost causes are the only causes worth fighting for." - Jimmy Stewart      These words are spoken in the fantastic movie Mr.Smith Goes To Washington by a man by the name of Mr.Smith ( Jimmy Stewart ) who is in Washington D.C. fighting what seems like a losing battle for something he believes in, something he knows is ...

Facing Fear

     Fear...fear is something we all face at some time or another. It can be small or it can be crippling. Some may face it every once in a great while and others face it every day of their lives. Fear can be brought on by accidents, people, wars, disease, governments, media consumption, and by simply being alive. I would venture to say that fear is interwoven into the fall of man, therefore it is interwoven into being human. However, to say that it's interwoven into the human experience doesn't mean that it should be; I truly believe that when God created humanity he never intended for us to be fearful creatures, in fact time and time again the Bible tells us not to fear. This is something that we did to ourselves. The second Adam and Eve messed up and everything came crashing down around them fear entered the picture and it came to stay.       Fear doesn't affect and interact with everyone the same way. Some people merely brush up against it...
