Ban Ny Ci Jungle Christmas Party

December 23
Ban Ny Ci Jungle Christmas Party!
Hello!!!! We have made it safely to Thailand! There were quite a few obstacles, but the Lord got us to where He has called us to. I was once told, "If the Lord has called you there, He will keep you there!" Amen to that! We moved into a cute little house and have set up our home. However, after being told by our Landlord that she would remove the Thai spirit house, she has changed her mind. She told us it would be better for us to move than to upset to the spirits. We are praying that she changes her mind as our choices are very.....well....rough! But, the Lord will direct our paths! Pray as led! We will be traveling south to Hat Yai on the 27th of December to meet with the extended team that we have joined. We are going to be praying the New Year in & sharing the vision. One accord! Praise God! We will be traveling by bus. A total of 4 adults & 7 kids in a rented van. Pray for peace, sanity & safety!!! We will be aiming at being back to Ban Nam Kem January 4th. We are praying that our landlord will have had a change of heart & remove the spirit house & we will not have to relocate! So pray your hearts out for this to happen!!! It will be 14 days from the date that we have our housing secured that we will be able to get internet to our house. So we are still in limited communication, but check email as able.

We took many pictures to share with y'all as we went out as a team to Ban Ny Ci to deliver a Chirstmas Message, Christmas Gifts & play with the children. These children work about 9 hours a day in a rubber factory. The Thai do not allow the Burmese children to be educated, so we are their only means of education. We of course use this opportunity to not only teach them, but share Jesus with them! Through your giving we are able to serve these children, and we were able to buy them toys, candy & clothes. Everytime we see them they are in these green shirts that Todds short term team gave them. These children have nothing! What an honor to deliver these things to them in the Name of Jesus! Thank you for being obedient to support us! You make a difference!

In Christ, Amy
