It was our last day in the village yesterday. After working on projects like Wawa's stories on E and the women making palm sugar, Angela's interview with a gamelan musician, Nory's write-up about T, James' editing the Vision Trip 2010 video, Ryan working on a design layout of a report, Chito's photo resizing and editing and Khieven's material gathering for a presentation video for Sunday's dinner, we also got to take a break and visit a batik factory.

The process was arduous, tedious, and required much creativity. The men worked on the difficult processes like stamping and the women intricately dyed and painted the fabric with skillful hands. No wonder some batik cloths take years to finish!

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G is the spelling of the trip thus far. Seven participants from different communications backgrounds and specializations come together to witness firsthand what God has been doing in this place. We just arrived from a village trip where we did what communications experts love doing - gathering media about God's work so we can tell the world.

Here's Khieven, a multimedia specialist who joined us as a photographer for this trip...

"There's a great need in this area of God's ministry that I never realized until I witnessed it personally."

Wawa, communications coordinator at WorldTeach Philippines, has something to say too...
