TRAVEL TIPS WHILE ABROAD:
- Take precautions to avoid being a target of crime
- Familiarize yourself with local conditions and laws
- Check your overseas medical insurance coverage
- Leave copies of your itinerary, passport data page and visas with family or friends, so you can be contacted in case of an emergency

I was having dinner with family and friends and the subject of helping those abroad almost became a brawl! One rebuttal was that charity began at home! Seriously!!! The 'home front' has government programs and resources to aid one's 'uncomfortable' situation. My thoughts and comments were that the people abroad do not have access, and there is no 'foodstamp' program and some are victims of war and need our help! Missionaries can do so much. The continent is so huge that all regions can't be assisted all at once. It's our duty! My solution, if people have the resources you can help those in your backyard as well as people abroad! Just don't disregard them.
