Highlights

A different blog than normal...the following are some random and good things that have happened recently...


I have completed module 3 of the conversational Thai... I feel as if my understanding this language is steadily growing...

I bought a fish two weeks ago, put him in a pot with a water lily, and he died...it was a slight mess, so I had to get rid of the water lily as well. : [

Getting to know the people that God has put in my life here, has been a great blessing.

Our team had a one day retreat yesturday. I was so very encouraged in learning more about Thailand, how to genuinely love the Thai people, and to understand more about the vision of our team. We had a good time together.

Doors are opening across the street outside the bars. Several evenings this week, I have been able to sit and talk with the women there. They are so special... last night, they surprised me with a big fat grasshopper, and we enjoyed a late night crunchy snack together! Quite fun.

Today, I started the reading and writing course of my school...O my goodness, It will be good, but difficult. I do believe that I will be studying much more. Please continue to keep school in your prayers!

Tomorrow I am going to make salsa. I haven't been able to"cook" in a long time, and I am soooo excited...of course I will share it. ; )

I randomly ran into my friend Tawan today, at a bookstore near my school, it was so good to see and talk to her.

Next monday, I will start teaching English to a teenage girl...

I posted some new pictures.

Please be free to leave comments...you have no idea how encouraging they are, and I always enjoy reading them! Thank you for your prayers.

  1. Your random thoughts were great. I thought about a snack tonight but dried apricots or a pretzels will be fine. Enjoy your grasshoppers. I will continue to pray for school. Mom
