Gola Part 2 - Being There

Gola Part 2 - Being There 

Six years ago I had the enormous privilege of spending three consecutive months in Thailand, shadowing Pastor Suradet as part of my MDiv requirements for a pastoral internship.


One of the most stretching parts of that time was a three day journey up into the mountains to visit Suradet's family in his home village.

In reflecting now on both the end run of my academics, AND on how much I'm aching to be in Thailand, memories of this particular trip seemed worth re-sharing.

It comes in three parts.  This is the second installment.  "Gola" Part 2 - Being There.

"Gola" Part 1 - Getting There

"Gola" Part 1 

Six years ago I had the enormous privilege of spending three consecutive months in Thailand, shadowing Pastor Suradet as part of my MDiv requirements for a pastoral internship.

One of the most stretching parts of that time was a three day journey up into the mountains to visit Suradet's family in his home village.



In my reflections of late, both on nearing the end of my academics, AND on how much I'm missing being in Thailand right now, memories of this particular time, and this particular trip seemed worth re-sharing.

It comes in three parts.  Here's the first installment:  "Gola" Part 1 - Getting There.
