Day 6.......Hi this is Elizabeth and I wanted to tell you about what we did today,I still have a smell of raw sewer in my nose but seeing the smile on these kids face made it all worthwhile in the slum areas.

Today we taught English at a school for selected children....exceptionally bright kids and their English was much more advanced than the other school we went to the day before.

Annabel,Chris and I taught how to say the practical things in life ..like water,glasses,phone,bandaid...etc.

After the classes we were ask to go in the slum areas with Chatchia and be amongst the people ..it was a really rough area and to be honest I felt a little uneasy,We met the Muslim leader for the area and she asked us for Dinner sat night back in the area....it will be very interesting.

The hairdressing part of what i am doing is going great I have done 13 style cuts so far to these missionary wives,children and a 1 husband. If I can use my skill to bless other people then its all worthwhile ,the missionaries have been blessed by this ,not only cause its expensive to go to a salon but the love,laughter,support we are giving then to make them feel good too.

We found a eating place that make a nice chicken and cashew nut stir fry...but to be honest i loved the piece of chicken we snuck into KFC for (don't tell Deb and Steve)...

Mark and I are missing our Kids alot if you see then in the streets can someone take them home

My Dads recovery is going good, missing not being able to talk to him and tell him I love him.

God is using us in many ways,we just want to be able to give of ourselves so we can bless other people.

Mark is snoring now so i should sign off and get sleep for another action packed day.

Elizabeth,Liz,Lizzy,Lizzard what a lot of thai people have called me .
