HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF THIS PAST MONTH:
So good to have John back with us for nearly a month. He's helping us in many ways. Janaya is especially happy to be re-united with her big brother!
We've been enjoyed visits (over dinner) from our Thai friends who were graduate students at Purdue University. Belle (above) and Aor, and her husband, Surachat (below), live in Bangkok, and contacted us during their visits to Chiang Mai. Over shared meals, we were able to "plant seeds" of Christ's love.
For the last three years, a few missionaries have been conducting a Bible Kid's Club each Monday to Thai students at
Tongkai grade school, located near our house. The kids play games, do crafts, have a snack, sing Bible songs and hear a story from the Bible. Those students who wish to come and participate do so. One couple reaching out to these children is our good friends, Phil and Michelle Parker. Recently, Michelle invited Kelly, Janaya and me to help them with this outreach. Above, is a photo of Kelly and Michelle watching the children play a game of bingo.

I was invited to come teach a story from Mark 5 at the Tongkai grade school. Please pray the Thai children at the grade school will be convicted of the truth that God exists, and their need of a Savior.

This is our new Toyota, 2-wheel drive, diesel pick-up truck. A Lisu friend allowed us to register the truck in his name, as he was given a deal by Toyota to make interest-free payments over the next three years until paid (or paid-in-full before then). This made it possible to purchase the new pick-up truck! So far, we've raised $4,200 of the $26,500 needed to cover the full cost of the truck. A HUGE THANK YOU to those of you who have given a special offering towards the purchase of the truck! We're deeply appreciative. This truck is a great tool for our ministry!
