Yesterday we finished the English camp for the kids. The last day we were there we had so much fun. We just played a bunch of games with them and reviewed what we had taught them during this week. We also gave them graduation certificates and they performed some of the songs that we had taught them in front of their families. I was sad to leave just because I had fallen in love with the kids so much. We are going to be leaving early in the morning tomorrow around 6am to head to Chaing Mai for a few days then we head to Chaing Rai for the rest of our time here in Thailand. God has done so much already and I can not wait to see what He has in store next for us here in Thailand. We have built many good relationships while being here in Mae Sot and God has done some incredible things just with that guy that got hit and how God showed me He was there the whole time. During the English camp for the kids I hurt my foot pretty bad and it is swollen, even though the swelling has gone down a little bit it still hurts to walk on. Please keep me in prayer that the swelling will go away completelty and that the pain will be fully gone. I have it wrapped up tight just to keep some pressure on it and that should help for right now. It was so neat to see yesterday the kids that God lets you know that you have touched their lives in a deep meanigful way. There was a kid that my friend Jesse gave his skateboard to and it made the kdis day. He carries that skateboard around with him wherever he goes and rides it all the time. Yeesterday that kid camp up to one of us and gave us a stuffed bear and said that this was for Jesse, and he said tell Jesse that I love him. It was so touching that this kid did that. There was another kid that always was sitting with me on the last day he did not want to leave my side, everytime we played a game he took me by the hand and said stay by me. Everytime we sat down he came and sat on my lap, I fell in love with that kid very much. I want to let you guys know that I could not be here if it was not for you and definitly if it was not of God. By you guys supporting me in this kids lives were able to be touched others were able to hear the Word of God and lives are being changed. I just wanted to thank you guys so much and let you know how much I love each and everyone of you God Bless.

English camp is going well has been a little stressful with the kids sometimes, but I love its right where I want to be. We are teaching them stories about Jesus, performing skits, teaching them songs, like Jesus Loves Me and This Little Light of Mine. The songs that we have taught them they are going to perform in front of their family tomorrow. Thee kids seem like the are having a lot of fun and have really been enjoying themselves. Yesterday we celebrated our translators birthday. He had so much fun and said that it was one of the best birthdays he has ever had. We have also got to know this guy named Bus who has been going with us sometimes to the English camp. He is a Muslim but he has been asking questions about the Bible and we have been able to share with him. We have been building relationships and been planting seeds in peoples lives which as been worth everything we have done, thank you all for your prayers and God bless you
We have finished the Adult English Camp here in Thailand and it went really well they gave each one of us a certificate with our names on it and everyone that we taught was really happy we were there. Today was the craziest day so far here in Thailand on our way back from the English camp we hit a man riding on a bike with our truck. When we hit him he did a flip and landed on his head and his legs were caught between the bike. My first reaction was to jump put of the car run over to the man and I took off my shirt and put it on the hole in his head. My shirt got covered in blood and it was also all over my hands and arms. At the moment I was not even thinking about what had happen except for the fact to keep pressure on it. I was told that by me keeping pressure on his head I probably saved his life. We found out that while he was at the hospital he got stitches in his arm and in his head. He is also going to have an XRAY as well. Please keep this man in prayer and also keep our team in prayer as well as some of them have gone into shock from what happen. I thank you all for your prayers and I pray all is going well with you. Tomorrow we our doing a child English Camp going to play some games with them and teach them English. At the Adult English Camp after it had finished they gave each one of us a certificate with our names on it as a form of saying thank you for what we did for the people in the English Camp. I love you guys.
Thailand is going great have been doing a lot of work at the school playing games with the kids and singing songs. Also been teaching them bible verses, and telling them about Jesus. Also have done some work there of putting in concrete so that they can have picnic tables to eat lunch. We have also gone back to the orphanage a few times and played with the children and have started a little bible camp there for them as well. We have performed the life house skit a few times and people have really enjoyed that. This weekend we have started an adult English camp where we have got in groups and are helping teach them English a little at a time, like how to start a conversation and just simple little phrases. It is actually pretty simple easier and a lot of fun then I thought it was going to be. We are going to do that again tomorrow on Sunday as well, that is the last day that we are going to be doing the adult English camp. Hopefully tomorrow we will find out what we will be doing Monday, but it has been so far where we really do not find out what we are doing until that very morning of the day. We have one more week then we head to Chaing Rai for a couple days then its to Chaing Mai for the rest of the time. Today at the Adult English Camp we found out that during the time we performed the life house skit that by us performing it we made a lady cry, it really touched her a lot in a powerful way. We have been having a lot of fun teaching English here and have been learning a lot ourselves. Teaching English is a lot easier then it seems it would be especially when the people really want to learn. Thank you all that are keeping me in your prayers and God bless you guys tremendously and pray that your day goes well and remember stay close to Jesus He is every
Thailand so far has been an awesome experience I love it here the food, the people even though they are shy. We have a translater that goes by the name of boy, he is very nice and amazing guy I like him a lot. We have gotten to do some pretty neat things so far this is what we have done. We have gone to an orphanage and we played with the kids and ran around with them and played soccer. When we had left some of the kids were saying my name and telling me bye, later on I was crying because I had got so attached to them, and an orphanage is something that God has laid on my heart to try and start one of my own. We have also gone to a hospital and we prayed for the sick that were there. The hospital here was not good at all, it was a run down place. There was blood on the floor, the beds were just like a mat on some sticks. The people there did not have the best care at all. We have also been going to a school where we have been working on the ground, to get it ready to build another building where they can have class. We have also done a prison ministry where we sang and danced for them, and also had a big water fight with the inmates. We also went to a monk school and we played games with the kid monks, and taught them different phrases in English as well, I loved that so much seeing a monk was one of the things on my list that I wanted to do while I was here. We have also been doing some outdoor evangelism which has gone alright but can get better and will with time. The first time we did it we asked if anyone wanted prayer, and here they are a very shy culture so it is rare for them to talk with you let alone be prayed for, but God moved and one lady asked for prayer and then another boy stepped up and did the same. I loved it that we got to do that for them. We also went to this outdoor market and there was a Thai band playing there and they allowed me to go up on the stage and dance with them say where I was from, and I went and pretended to play the drums and each one of the gutairs it was so fun.I have also eaten some weird things as well here which I really wanted to do, I ate crickets and also had some cockroaches, they were prettty interesting but I enjoyed them and would do it again. I love it here in Thailand and thank you all that are praying and supporting me in this wonderful ministry that God is doing love you all and God Bless.
We have arrived in Thailand and so far so good. The food here is amazing I love it. Right now we are doing a scavenger hunt where we go around doing things they have told us to do on the map. We head to Chaing Rai tomorrow. I got to go but God Bless
