Heads Up for the Next Few Days

For me right now it's 10:50 p.m. and I'm literally dropping off as I wait for internet connections to load. So I think it would be best to just go to bed now and take some time tomorrow morning to fill you in on some of the very cool God-moments of this day in Thailand. There have been so many!



But for the record and for those who've wanted to be praying for me in specific ways, I thought I'd just give an expected itinerary of the next few days.

Sunday a.m. Preaching at the church service held right here at Doi Saket, for homes 1 and 2.
Sunday p.m. Pack and leave for Wiang Pa Pao, north east of Chiang Mai, where all the children 4th grade and up are heading for a retreat. This includes all Hot Springs children, so I need to be there.
Sunday p.m. Give the opening lesson for the retreat (all about Who Is My Friend? and the story of the Good Samaritan.

Sunday to Tuesday - At the retreat, speaking one more time duirng.

Tuesday Head back to Debbie an Mike's for a shower and one night stay over before heading up to Hot Springs to stay.

Wednesday to Monday, probably - At Hot Springs with the children.

Friday, probably, go with Hot Springs children to the zoo.

Sunday next - Preach at Hot Springs church.

Sunday or Monday, return to Debbie and Mikes' to prepare for the flight home.

Already the experience has been so rich, I can hardly believe I haven't even actually started the "being with the Hot Springs kids" immersion thing quite yet.

I'll tell you more tomorrow but I got a really good start in getting to know our kids today, while they were in attendance at the dedication service for the new Education Centre at Doi Saket.

Honestly, that's all I can give you tonight. I'm so tired! But in a very satisfying way. My soul is being filled up moment by moment, hug by hug, child by child.
