Bonjour, Taipei!

We have arrived in Taipei and we are getting ready to fly off to Bangkok! Sawadios!

T-Minus 29 Hours...

Yes, we are ALMOST leaving! To think that the time has finally arrived...

Anyway, please continue to keep us in your prayers!

Just Around the Riverbend

Hola, Ni hao, and Sawadee friends!

The outpouring of love and support from over the last week has been tremendous. Like Pastor Danny said on Sunday, we go on missions as a church, and the FCBC body has been awesome!

Here are our team pictures:

L > R: Doris, Alisa, Kara, Noreen, Stephanie, Josh, Lorraine, Greg, Alex, Caleb, Sonny

...if we took these earlier, we wouldn't have had to show the silly pictures in Worship@11. Haha, oh well!

Continue to pray for last minute prep & packing. We're off in TWO days! :)

If you'd like to come for prayer send-off, meet at FCBC in the MPR at 12:00pm on Thursday, July 14.

Missions Monday

East Asia Y Team: students attending camp will be open to hearing the good news; creativity & wisdom for the team in openly sharing in situations that may be difficult; good health & traveling mercies.

Commissioned in Worship@11

Thanks to Adrienne for taking the picture!

Got extra knick knacks lying around the house?

Tomorrow, we are collecting used children's clothing, toys, travel toiletries, and other small knick knacks before and after Worship@11.

The collected items will be given away to the children and orphans in the rural mountain villages. Any leftover items that we can't fit in our luggage will be donated to veterans.

Look for our table in the courtyard! Or just drop by and say hello :)

10:30-10:55 and 12:30-1:00

Today's church prayer focus is for India missions team!

SawadeeHEY!

Happy July 4th everyone! Hopefully everyone is enjoying watermelon and barbecues and pool parties, and not dying in the almost 100 degree (!!) weather.

Our team met yesterday to finalize details and plan out our supply lists. We leave in 10 days and already God has been so faithful to our team. Peter and Lillian have been working hard to coordinate things in Thailand, and they have some very cool things lined up for our team. Can't wait to see what God will do this summer! :) Continue to pray for each of our members, for Peter and Lillian, and for the people we will be meeting.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

We are collecting children and youth clothing for villagers. Peter and Lillian will be distributing it as they minister to the various hill tribes. Collection will be THIS SUNDAY ONLY, July 10, in the courtyard from 12:30-1:00.

ESPM is praying for Thailand and India summer missions teams this Wednesday, July 6. Be there at 7:30 sharp! (upstairs H/Truth, first room on the left)
