we're homeeee... in lopburi :)

we're homeeee!! in lopburi! hahahaha we missed it here! although childcare conference was super :D:D too with the many little kiddies around!

it's been a tiring packed week of journeying up to nakhon sawan, meeting tons of new faces, preparing from mon to wed for the kids programme, then session after session with energetic enthusiastic kids! 3 people on the childcare team fell sick!! but thank God for keeping us 4 in good health & for keeping the teams going! for however tiring it's been, it's been so very heartwarming & smile-inducing too!

shaun & andrew's fatherly side came out in this week & andrew nearly smuggled a boy home! except that the boy already had parents & siblings so he spared him. and shaun was going around fondling all the cute little kiddies & babies. and ruth & i kept oggling at my cutie fave baby & i had fun with my darling 6-yr-olds!

hahaha the place we stayed in was a nice resort! and we met new omf pple and got to talk abit so it was niceee. and we worked with pple with ireland, uk, new zealand, switzerland etc! fun exciting stuff!

and all at the same time each night & morning we would pray for the kids & the programme. praying for strength & joy & patience, and also for the kids to come to know God in a personal way. it was quite a change from hanging out with thai uni students, to hanging out with young missionary kids who had lotsa bible knowledge. but it was great still, in so many ways, to see the kids cooperating, the kids learning, and singing along together whilst having fun! even the ones who were challenging managed to be dealt with with loveee, so that was nice.

been exciting here in thailand! at youth house & conference... and now even as the days go byyy, keep praying for us! to continue to be seeking God, to be seeking Him even harder even! to be listening & waiting on Him. & to be ever used by Him, every moment we're here to do as pleases Him! :) it's our joy to serve Him! and He's our strength! thankeww all who've been praying for us!
