Sorry this update is long overdue. I have been here at "Banpong" in the hills of Thailand near where the Lisu and Lahu hill tribes people live. Mr. and Mrs. Kho are missionaries who run a dorm complex ( I guess that's what I'll call it ). It has bedrooms, bathrooms, a kitchen, grass, offices, computers, guest rooms, etc. There are about 40-45 kids that live here in order to go to Thai school. Most of them are not legal Thai citizens and therefore have little access to good education.
I have been able to teach English along with two other English speakers :). It has been awesome so far! Just living here has taught me so much. Please pray for these kids. My prayer is that they would not only learn a lot through school and hopefully become Thai citizens, but that they would become genuine lovers and worshippers of Jesus Christ. Please pray that my teaching would reflect the compassion of Christ. Pray that I could be an encouragement to the Thai workers here too, despite the language barrier. Thank you! I have pictures on facebook too, if you want to "see" what it's like here!
