Our contact here is amazing. He and himily have opened up their home to us all month. They have given us the whole upstairs and use of the rest of the house too. They are great and we love them. Boonrong, our contact is like our Thai dad to this group of girls. He speaks some English and we chat as much as we can and when we can’t talk then we use the language of smiles which communicates more than you would imagine. He has a great heart and so much joy. He worships with all his heart and always has a smile on his face. The first Sunday before church when we all came downstairs with our skirts and dresses on he told us we were beautiful and he wanted to take our picture. He jokes with us about having frogs and snakes for dinner and stops at 7 Eleven at least once a day for us to get goodies. He and his family have made themselves less comfortable this month so that we can have a place to stay. We are so thankful for them.
How many people would take their family and move them into the downstairs so that fifteen missionaries could sleep upstairs. How many people would let these fifteen girls use the kitchen whenever they need? How many people would take time out of their day each week to take these girls a half hour into the city and the go pick them up so they can enjoy their day off? We have felt so welcomed in Thailand and in this home. I pray God blesses this family for their generosity to us.
