I may live in Texas, but part of my heart remains in Thailand.
About Me
- Faye
- I am a missionary to the Shan people in Thailand, though currently on home assignment in Texas. I'm readjusting to life in America, planning a wedding, and dreaming about my return to the mission field.
Prayer Requests
- Praise God for helping Dave and I with the transition back to America. There have been so many little accomplishments: we found an engagement ring, bought a used truck in Massachusetts and drove it all the way to Texas, I found a wedding dress that fit amazingly well right off the rack, and we are on our way to finding a place to live!
- Pray for Dave and I as we look for a place to live in Austin. Dave will move in ASAP and get things set up. I'll join him there after the honeymoon! We will be making a decision in the next couple days. Pray for wisdom!
- Praise God for an amazing trip into Burma last month. The team adapted amazingly well and accomplished a lot towards the completion of a prayer guide for the Shan.
- Pray for one long-term missionary currently working with the Shan who will take over the prayer guide project and see it to print completion.

Faye,
so glad your visa stuff worked out and you made your flight...I love the pics of your house! As always, I am sure the pictures do not do justice...we who live in Thailand know pictures always make things look nicer...but it does look quite comfy and the three of you have made a nice home for yourselves! I love the kitchen table and the living room furniture! Nice stuff! I was expecting those hard wooden benches for your living room furniture!
Looks great, can't wait to come and visit!
love you all...
Yep - I remember you telling us that the pictures always make things look "cleaner" than they really are. You've all done a terrific job at making your house a home. I can't wait to visit myself in the summer. Love - Mom
Faye - My three favorite things to watch are 1)"Grey's Anatomy" 2)"Boston Legal" and 3)"Faye in Asia" blogspot. Thank you for a new episode with lots of pictures! It reminds me of a vacation cabin or summer camp. It's a bit rustic, but comfortable. The only things missing in my imagination are the sounds and smells. God Bless you - Tricia G.
Crystal...
Yeah, we have been blessed by all the second-hand furniture we've received. We didn't expect nice couches, either! Let me just say, our couches and our home is open to you guys any time! Come visit!
Mom...
I'm really looking forward to your visit, too. I'm even learning how to make Shan food. It's different (they use shrimp paste and fermented soya bean in almost every dish), but really good.
Tricia...
I love watching Grey's Anatomy myself (mom sent me season 1 on DVD...can't wait for season 2), so to be grouped with that show is a big compliment! Sounds: imagine roosters crowing, pots banging, and children laughing. Smells: fresh fruit and shrimp paste.
:)
...Faye
Hey Faye, it's so fun keeping up with you...and I check it regularly as well...Can't wait to hear about your mom's visit! I miss you and think about you often and it sounds like you are settling in quite nicely. And, yes, the furniture it awesome...some day, I hope to experience your new culinary treasures...many hugs, Karen and family (p.s. my vote is to go for one of the new puppies!)
