Bangladesh Update #1!s
PostedSo I am attempting to post a PDF document that I made as a sort of "newsletter style" update that I was able to send out to a few of you. Nonetheless, the time has arrived where I am now 25 years old (yes yesterday was my birthday), and I have finally had enough access to power and internet to send out a formal update to you. I have really appreciated the notes and emails the few of you have been sending as they are uplifting and encouraging as I begin this year of my life here!
I have to say that because we don't really have the means to eat cake here, that we instead put some candles in the banana leaf chicken dish that we were having for dinner that night.
In brief, the time here has been a whirlwind tour of Dhaka and I imagine that it will take me several more months to get my footing here in the school. There is a bit more about that in the attached update. I am very thankful yet nervous about the upcoming challenge, and will proceed to send out stories of my time here as you wish. Of course if you don’t want to receive my updates just let me know and I can remove you J, likewise, please forward onwards to anyone I may have missed!
Just a quick addition that I didn’t write about in the update, please see the attached photo, of what was going on with the power lines right outside my balcony! Notice the heaps of wires just tossed upon the pole as well as the bamboo ladder being used to string them!
Life here is definitely a bit different! Feel free also to ask questions and send emails, I don’t always get to them straight away but will do my best! Thank you for all your support and prayers, they are much needed.
Also please see the Picassa Web Album with some more pictures of my time here so far. I would love to update you with the articles I wrote, but maybe once I figure out how to do that I will post it! The internet is SO slow here that I can't really "surf" around to find it. I will have to ask around at school.
Ok that's all for now until I can figure more out! Hope you enjoy reading, I miss you all and am looking forward to hearing from you!
Love in Christ,
Cori (Joshua 1:9)
