The final family of this summer’s new staff has arrived on the field. CAMA Mongolia would like to proudly introduce you to the Wahlen family. Meet Erik and Christina, along with Jack, Becca, and little Ana. They will be studying language and living in Ulaanbaatar.

Erik and Christina are a great asset to our UB team with their skills and understanding of ESL and camping. Erik and Christina and their children are coming from Menomonie, Wisconsin.

You may read more about the Wahlen family at their personal website.

Please join us as we welcome the latest additions to the growing CAMA Mongolia staff!

Arriving in Mongolia on July 19th will be Larry and Krista Lain and family! The Lains will be arriving in UB and then transported to their new living quarters in Darhan. They are coming with their two children Averiana (7) and Eli (4).

Larry and Krista will be working with CAMA Services, and starting their language study soon after their arrival. The Lains have spent the past several years working with Hurricane Katrina victims in Baton Rough, Louisiana. Their experience helping those in need with compassion will be well used, as they now seek to show the compassion of Jesus to the people of Mongolia.

Be sure to check out the Lain’s website. The CAMA Mongolia team welcomes the Lain family to the team! Be sure to leave your personal welcome in the comments below!

(Let’s give the Lains a royal welcome!)

We are happy to introduce to our CAMA Mongolia partners to Ruth Kim and Jason Lee, along with their children Peter, Hanuel and Angel. They will be arriving in Ulaanbaatar on July 13.

Jason is a graduate of Alliance Theological Seminary and has served as a youth pastor at the Bronx Cambodian Church and the One Life Church. Ruth was a special education teacher in New York.

The Lee family will be finishing up studying Second Language Acquisition at Wheaton College this month, and will be departing for Korea and Ulannbaatar soon thereafter. Upon arrival and settling into their apartment in the heart of the UB, they will both begin two years of language study. Ruth will also begin working in the CAMA field office as bookkeeper. The children will be attending the International School of Ulaanbaatar.

Be sure to check out the Lee’s website. They also have a lot of great photos of their family at Flickr.

We are excited to have the Lee family join our team. Post your comments and give them a warm welcome to Mongolia!

We are excited to have received the first of CAMA Mongolia’s new recruits today. It is our pleasure to introduce you to Alison Dench.

Ali is joining us from Perth, Australia. Lest you think this “new recruit” is green and inexperienced, Ali brings a lot of experience, talent and wisdom to our team. She has actually already served three terms with the C&MA in the Philippines. She has a Masters in linguistics and has worked at the Alliance Graduate School teaching English, English Grammar and research. She also worked with International Students.

Ali will be studying language for two years in Darhan, where she will be living with Kirsten Hewitt. We welcome Ali to our team and appreciate your prayers for her as she transitions onto the Mongolian field.

Welcome to Mongolia, Ali!
