Day 7, the day of rest

We have had another fantastic day today. It was free time in the morning/till 3 o'clock. Some had a sleep in before our daily morning meeting. Kelly, Anna, Steve and myself hit the pool while Amy, Deb and Mark took a load off by having a thai massage. It was a testimony to the teams strong bond as in our free time we found ourselves eating and drinking all together. In the evening, the team spilt up. Chatchai Anna, Steve, Kell and Liz went to visit a christian orphanage that took children in from abusive relationships, or whos parents were ill fit to look after them. They enjoyed getting to know the children and providing dinner for them. Liz took the opportunity to cut some children's hair and was able to leave the centre a pair of hair clippers donated by a salon in Australia.

Meanwhile; Deb, Chris, Mark, Amy and myself held the last English class for this mission at the church. There was not as many people as the previous nights but the classes that were run ended in opportunities to tell people about God. Some of us were able to help with preperation for children's day tomorrow, which apparantely is a big thing!!

It was priceless seeing the jaws drop on the children when Sophia told them they would not see us until next year. Well, maybe not true anymore as many have said they will be coming to church on Sunday. Praise God of the many reminders we have had today of his faithful presents in the city of Thailand. Amy finished the night meeting not feeling too well. Please pray for her health and our big day tomorrow heading up English Day Camp.

cheers, Ellen
