Sri-Lanka 1...

For those that dont know, my amazing Sister and her equally amazing husband, work in Sri-Lanka. E works for Northwest Medical Teams, and J works for World Vision.
I'm spending 3 weeks there with them, semi travel/holiday and some work with World Vision.
I haven't been here long, but it is an amazing country.
If you like seeing millions of stray dogs, rich (bad) smells, severe humidity, and lots of machine gun weilding people... then this is the place to be - along with many other developing countries coping with natural disasters and inner c0nflict... more to come soon...

Nice...

Hmm a nice way to start the holiday...
Phuket - Sri Lanka Bangkok - 5 weeks of fun.....

NO I dont want a suit tailored for me, nor a thai massage, nor a leather jacket....
But I happy with amazing coastline, good weather and super cheap drinks...

Time = Books

Finally, I am getting close to having time to read again...
Since starting Church Next, I have battled the constant strains of time... it's still unfinished.
However, things may be about to change with holidays looming, so the list has grown to include
1. The Scandal of the Evangelical Conscience.
2. The Church in Transition.
3. Who Stands Fast - Discipleship in Difficult Places.
4. Wild Ones.
5. The Eye of the Needle.
6. Saving God's Green Earth.

Hmm I already know that holidays always end up being busier than work. Here's hoping...

$$$, mo's and banks....

Well work has almost ended for the year...fantastic!
2 rather exciting things...

1. We managed to raise over $1000 for Mo-vember...
2. We managed to raise enough $10,000 for a Trust Bank with Opp International.

Very muchily happy with those efforts.
