These are photos of my time at Bon Don Chai School in Thailand. These are the people I got to not only meet, but we lived, taught, played, and loved together. I want to thank everyone who has supported me through prayer or financial donation and let you know that these are the faces, places, and experiences on the other side of your support. Thank you.
I spent the months of November and December in Mae Ai, Thailand. My laptop ended up not working for awhile, so I was unable to post a lot of the photos I took with my camera. Now, my laptop is alive and well so I decided to post these photos to let you in on a little bit more of what my time in Thailand looked like. Each day I taught one hour of English to my fourth grade class. Other than teaching English, each day looked different. We would help around the school, play with the kids during free time, and host clubs to teach our students bible stories. We helped the sports teams prepare for their big Sports Day, where they competed against other schools. We made crafts and sang a song for a fundraiser that was held at the school. We participated in a huge Christmas party and gift exchange with our students! But most importantly, we planted seeds and loved our students the best we could. It was difficult to leave, but we know we left Jesus with them.
I hope you enjoy these photos and once again, thank you. All of this happened with the help of your support.
This is our photo of the whole school after our Christmas party on Christmas day!

They loved having their photos taken and playing with us at the end of the school day.
On this day we went with the kindergarten class on a field trip to the Fang Hot Springs!
Peace!
Practicing for Sports Day!
