A New Look For a Friend in Mission

Visitors to Brett and Shelley's blog, Welcome to the Jungle, are now greeted by a colorful photo that's as big as a ... well, see for yourself. It is also an enduring symbol of the country where these Americans are living, working and blogging.

Brett and Shelley are mission co-workers living in Chiang Mai, Thailand as HIV/AIDS regional consultants. Brett is a nurse and amateur photographer. Shelly, a literacy specialist and ESL teacher. They are joined in mission by their two wonderful children, Acacia and Annapurna.We had a chance to meet Brett and Shelly in February, when our mission team was invited to join a gathering at the home of Reverend Dr. William J. Yoder, Dean Emeritus of the McGilvray College of Divinity in Chiang Mai, for dinner and fellowship with men and women, young and old, who have devoted years of their lives to education and Christian mission in Thailand.
