Reading, Working, and Learning

Loads of Office Work

Dear All,

I have been in Thailand for the past two weeks and am already working pretty hard to get things done on time. Tomorrow will be my old High School’s “car-boot” sale where my mom and I will be selling items from Thai Country Trim (the women’s ministry my mom manages) and we will also be selling homemade food in order to raise money for me to live on for the summer. 

All in all, I’d say it has been a pretty great two weeks. There has been loads of computer office work that I've been working on, like planning the schedule for the English Camp we have in June, and designing posters for my moms business. But I've also gotten to take Thai reading lessons from my dad, who says that I should be reading from a Thai bible by Wednesday of next week! So that's pretty exciting.

On top of all that, my sister graduates next week! It has been such a blessing to be with her these past couple of days and to see how much she has grown over the past two years. I am so excited to have her joining me at California Baptist next semester!
Thank you all for your prayers, God really has been growing me a lot in my quiet times with Him and even though my role is a lot different here than I expected, I am confident He will use it for his glory.
I wanted to give all of you an idea of what I will be doing for the summer, so I have provided a schedule below of the dates for the “main” events for the next few months. Hopefully it will give you an idea of what to pray for. Thanks again for all of your support!
