Below
is a web address for a file compiled for MKs (missionary kids) and TCKs
(third culture kids). However, I'm so impressed with the resources
gathered here that I'm sending it to you. You may know someone (even
your own kid? the visiting missionary's kid? yourself?) who may benefit
from one or more of these resources. Notice that there are three
sections. The last section might apply to your neighbor kid or one in
your Sunday School class. Enjoy, Bev
