good things

I am amazed at all of the great things that have taken place here in Thailand --especially in the last week. I was expecting us to really just attempt to understand a little bit of culture and language while we were here. I really did not think that we would be able to do too much serious ministry because of language difficulties; however, some really exciting things have happened.
All of our college age interns have done an awesome job of making relationships and hanging out with different university students. One of the guys that they have been hanging out with went on a retreat with some other Thai Christians and decided to follow the Lord. He also is going to move into the ministry dorm --Praise God.
The intern girls and I also had and amazing time of ministry with the dorm girls that we live with the other night. We went to their regular small group meeting and had worship. I then shared some of my testimony, and we all shared how the girls had been a blessing to us. We then had a time of praying for them and washing their feet. It was amazing how the Spirit of God was moving there. We really did not even do that much, but girls were weeping and praying for one another. The presence of God there was astounding. I am so thankful for the opportunity to have been able to minister to Christians and non-Christians while we have been here. I have been impressed over and over again with the Thai Christians that we are working with and with our interns. Thank you all for praying for us while we have been here. We have been safe and we have had a great time (I also have survived living in a tiny room with all three kids and pushing a stroller with a child hanging on each side down busy Bangkok streets). Remember us on Monday night and Tuesday while we make the 26 hour journey back to VA.
