well, its been a few days here in bangkok. i've been at the hospital two days. but not today. moe moe aye is recovering from surgury. today was church. it was great. besides me being tired. i'll blame it on the jet lag.... can't use that excuse next week. haha. service was good. they make food for everyone afterwards. food here is awesome. its like mexico, how you walk down streets and theres taco stands everywhere. but its thaifood. so yah. later we went to the slums of thailand. i guess its famous for drugs or something, i dont know. but i taught some kids in the neighborhood and english worship song. Lord you are so precious to me. yah that one. it was cool. then some other girls from the church and a group from australia taught some english in groups with the people there. its crazy. because its a small street and the houses are like soooo run down. like wooden floors with huge gaps in them. i got to talk to this guy named franky. he is from singapore. and has a thai wife here. i got to share with him about the Lord. he said he was a free thinker(alfredo would've loved to talk with this guy....haha). anyways. i made him relize that he can't go to the buddhist temples and still call on the name of the Lord. pray that the Lord does a work in him and his wifes lives. they take their kids to this english lesson, which is every week. so o pray the people from the church would continue to share with him and her. wednesday i'll be going to kachanaburi, then maybe two weeks later i'll be going to hua hin. with sharon. i'm picking up on the language, being that i'm with people that only speak thai. i'm staying at immanuel baptist church right now. the pastor here is so nice. i have new mesquito bites every morning, its nothing though. well thats all i can think of now. goodnight here in bangkok, but good morning in riverside.
