Working on the land

The Pacific Academy team spent 3 mornings helping us with different projects on the yard and garden for the Home of Joy, such as cutting grass and shrubs, taking down a bamboo shelter, clearing out a canal, building a brick wall, digging trenches for a foundation on a chicken shed, and so on.



 

Outreach with Pacific Academy

In March we were privileged to have a team of 14 here from Pacific Academy in Surrey BC. There were 11 students from grade 11 and 12 as well as 3 supervisors (2 of them were teachers.) We went into 2 schools in Hang Dong and one in Phrao, as well as a church. It was great to see them be able to share the gospel through song, drama and testimony. In Phrao Larry was able to give tracts to every student as well as some new testaments. Pray this may touch their hearts to seek to know Jesus.










Diane and I translated for Pacific Academy team in 3 schools, where we were thankful to be able to present the gospel, as well as build good relationships.


















Larry was able to hand out a bag of booklets and tracts to every student in Phrao.

Our interpreters - we were glad to have Rosarin, center, to help us with interpreting. She has been a friend of our family for many years. Pray for her as she had previously made a decision but has a Buddhist husband, who is not a believer.
