World Concern

For a few weeks, I had the privilege of helping Trish with a project at the World Concern office in Bangkok. I felt very important!:) So I was only typing library cards for the books in their little library. No matter, I was happy to be able to help and grateful that God had provided a project during my transition period.

The World Concern office is on the 29th floor of this huge building.

What a view of the city from floor 29!

The World Concern staff were all great. Missing are the director's wife and an intern.

Trish and I completed the task last week. Before we left, though, we were invited back this week for an appreciation lunch. So yesterday we returned for this lunch. Oh my, it was quite an affair! They had ordered out for pizza from Pizza Company; but not only did we have pizza; we also had salad, garlic bread, and breadsticks. And before the meal, both Trish and I were presented with a basket of gorgeous flowers! Plus Joe, the director, had written a book, so he gave us each a signed copy (we'd been asking if we could buy a copy, and he kept forgetting to bring them:). I think we received more than we gave!
