| Dear friends,
I am sending this letter of thanks from the Karen
State where we are training 18 new Karen, Karenni
and Kachin humanitarian relief teams. With the help
of Dr. Mitch and Dr. John, we also just completed
the Advanced Medical training for senior medics, and
Partners and Oddny trained the new Good Life Club
counselors. Finally Dr. Doug and Don helped with
leadership and team training.. I am thankful to you
all who make this possible, to the Karen people who
take care of everything here, to the FBR staff who
teach the new teams, to the new team members
themselves and most of all to God.
As I look around the beautiful jungle valley we
are in and see the rushing streams and rising
mountains, all the bamboo buildings, the busy staff
and enthusiastic students I am filled with gratitude.
All of this is a gift from God and those of you who
help us in this. I was reminded again that we can
not do this alone nor have we ever done anything
alone here. This fills me with wonder at God�s
provision and the generosity and breadth of vision
of people like you all. It also motivates me and the
staff here to do our best and live full, free and
useful lives that glorify God and honor you all.
We will be sending out some of the reflections of
the friends above who helped in this training. Their
encouragement helped us and we wanted to share this
with you. I hope this also might be useful in your
lives in some way.
Thank you all for your prayers, love and support.
God bless you,
Dave and all of the team here
