Today our journey begins, officially at least. For years we have both had the desire to go abroad to serve as student missionaries. This year we felt that God put a special burden on our hearts to go to an orphanage in Bangladesh, called Bangla Hope. Making the decision to go to Bangladesh was simple, but there were many road blocks along the way. Numerous times we thought it would be impossible for us to go, but we never gave up hope. We found that with God, truly nothing is impossible. God has blessed us with many obvious miracles. Being the first student missionaries granted an extended visa to Bangladesh, unfailing support from friends and family, and the ability to safely enter the country, despite previous political unrest, are just a few of the ways God has shown His presence in our journey. We are so excited for the opportunity to serve. We would love to have you join us. Experience Hope.

ReplyDeleteYour photos and written descriptions are great! I remember well the "auto rickshaws" in India and the crazy driving where you just had to close your eyes and hope for the best. It's easy to see that you're falling in love with these little ones, and they with you.
