David and Suzie leave for Sri-Lanka!

15th January - David and Suzie have just left for a 1 month trip to Sri-Lanka. I have just dropped them off at the airport. They have bags and bags of luggage and a long flight ahead of them. Although Suzie is Sri-Lankan, they have nto been back to the country for 17 years!! So this will be a momentous journey - to catch up with relatives, see how the country has changed, try to remember how to speak the language and to see the impact of the Tsunami.

Fighting has been happening once again in Trincomallee, so we still have to wait and see if they can visit the project up there. They also plan to visit the community in Galle and see how things are progressing and how Young Hope can best help.

Please think and pray for them:

• for their safe journey
• that they manage to visit Trinco
• that they will deal with all the emotions of the visit
• that they will fall in love once again with a beautiful country

I will post updates as I receive them. but technology out there is not great, and my parents grasp of e-mail is also not great!

Blessings,

Priya
