New country... first impressions: Jessica

Our city is very diverse with many tourists. Most people are kind but they seem to keep to themselves. In every corner of this beautiful city, shrines are displayed with food & drink offerings dedicated to idols. It has been heartbreaking to look out across a place full of millions that have never found the hope & joy that comes from knowing Christ. 

While missionaries have been in Thailand for centuries, the people have been hard hearted toward the Gospel, living their lives in spiritual darkness. Most of our ministry has consisted of mapping areas around the city to help give a better understanding of the culture & possible entry points to begin ministry. We'll also have an opportunity to be involved in campus ministry later in the month.

I have already grown to love the city & am excited to be a part of God's work here!
