After spending a week in Mae Sot, Thailand with the Karen people, the team is back in PakChong beginning a new journey in ministry. We will be working in different schools teaching children English. We are presenting skits and songs that reveal the message of Christ to children of all ages.
The schools we are visiting will range in social status and age. Our team is splitting up into smaller groups that will focus on teaching specific language skills such as: listening, speaking and stories. This is totally new to some of us while other have more experience in teaching, however we are all anticipating the next two weeks. Most of the children we will be ministering to come from Buddhist families. Many of these children have never associated with a foreigner before, which may be a challenge.
We are well taken care of in PakChong by our hosts Steve and Andrea. We are staying at their church and have everything we need. The Thai food is spicy but delicious. The mosquitoes are everywhere but thank God for bug spray. We have had a few rainy days, but nothing serious enough to interfere with our busy schedules.
Please keep our team in prayer. The next two weeks will be very challenging and tiring. We are constantly on-the-go. Besides our ministry sites at the school, we have teaching times, disciplship groups and worship. A few people have gotten upset stomachs and colds, but for the most part, everyone is in good health.
We want to thank all of our family and friends for their prayers and support. We want to thank our supporters who’ve made it possible for us to minister to the people of Thailand. The Lord is doing beautiful things here and we are so priveleged to be apart of it.
