We have much to be grateful for…
Almost all our Thai children will be able to join us for Christmas.
We are so grateful even Foon, who is finishing up his university studies next year in the USA, and is now home for Christmas. It is Foon’s first time back since he left after high school more than 3 years ago.
Nui will come home from Cambodia where she is serving with YWAM, she recently made a two year commitment.
Jono began his one year service with the Thai Army on Nov 1.
Bom and Bam are still studying at a local Chiang Rai university. Bom recently proposed to the love of his life and they plan to be married after they graduate next summer.
We are excited for Yanee, that, after trialing DTS (discipleship training school) at YWAM base in Chiang Rai for three weeks, she was invited to stay on with all the other students to complete whole 12 weeks of DTS lecture phase.
Our mission founder, Loren Cunningham, a great hero of the faith went to be with Jesus on October 6, but his vision lives on. We were inspired more than ever to continue on and never give up, as we watched the livestream of the inspiring celebration for the life of Loren Cunningham.
We hope to send, with our next newsletter, a family photo that we will take on Christmas Day with all our Thai kids home together.
With love, Paul & Penny.
