Revival in Chiang Kam

We did revival meetings in Chiang Kam for 5 days. Clinton preached 4 times in 5 days and all in Thai!! The first night was a struggle because they told him 2hours before the service that he wouldn't have a translator, but the next three times he did awesome! The Pastor backed out after hearing Clinton speak..... he said he spoke too fast. However, we are blown away that God has helped Clinton in such a way that he can preach in Thai!! What an answer to prayer. We saw 8 people come to the Lord in these meetings! That might not sound like a lot but for Thailand is wonderful! We were so blessed! Colton and Chase praying over Bang to receive the Holy Spirit
Our friend Oh worshiping God.

Colton and Chase play on the worship team with the Thais. My heart is blessed everytime they get up there! Chase plays the electric and sings and Colton plays the bass but sometimes he helps lead. The pictures speak for themself..........

House building in Chiang Kam

One of the days that we were in Chiang Kam the team spent the day helping to build a house. Colton was in charge of making the cement. All of the girls on the team had never done anything like this in their lives! Thai girls DO NOT go out in the heat of the day.... their one fear in life is to be dark... however, Pastor Sutat had them out in it for several hours. But they did really good and none of them complained.

This man is whose house they are helping to build. Note the hats ; )

More house building pictures

Colton, who is the man of many hats, takes a break after a long hard day. Chase is attempting to sit like a Thai, however, no matter how hard they try, their big bodies just can't conform..... so he puts a small rock under his bottom. ; )

Free day in Chiang Kam, Chiang Rai

Clinton was teaching all of the teenagers how to do a back flip off the top of this bridge! As you can see he's still a child at heart!! Chase is to the left watching so that he can follow suit. Bang deciding if he's going frontwards or backwards.... in the end he went with the front straight down jump.

Chase Tanner

Okay, is it just me or is this pictures hysterical!!!!!!!!! These boys are too funny!!!!! Chase Tanner has become quit the worshiper. He now leads worship in Thai and English.......and they'be both become photographers. They are constantly taking pictures of each other..

English Camp in Ban Pru

Our team did an English camp in Ban Pru, our village. We ran the camp for 5 weeks every Saturday. We had 30 students enrolled in the camp. Colton, Chase and Brian did the 12-18year olds, and Mary and I did the 7-11 year olds. It was a lot of fun. Of course the purpose was to tell the children the Gospel. After each lesson, P Thak would explain the story of Jesus to the students and give testimony. We also gave out books and tracts to the students. You can see Chase off to the back of the tables, Colton is to the right helping one of the girls with their work and Brian is at the front helping some students.
I'm doing a cake walk with the kids, minus the cake. ; )
Here's Mary teaching the young kids their colors.

Cambodia

I've finally posted some pictures of the guys trip to Cambodia. There aren't any of Vietnam because the pictures they took weren't that good. Hope you enjoy

Church in the village

This tent would become church for the next few days. Clinton praying for a sick man
The man Fabian is praying over, had one leg that was shorter than the other.... after intense prayer the man's leg grew out about 2inches and he didn't walk with a limp anymore!!!!
This ladies hand's were completely healed!!!!

The people of Cambodia

This is a view from the train ride into the village. This is about how all of the houses looked. This was the first time that they boys had been in a third world country. They were very surprised by how primitive it was. Thailand in some of it's villages is primitive, but there are places that you can go in order to escape. Cambodia has no escape places. "They don't even have a 7 Eleven," Colton said.
This picture's worth a thousand words... a fallen coconut leaf has become a chair for four......

Dinner?!?

Cambodia

Okay these pictures are long in coming....... this is a picture of the transportation system in the villages of Cambodia. This is a board on four wheels. There's only one track.......SO, if another train is coming from the other direction, somone has to dismount their board lift it up along with the wheels and let the others pass. They boys thought this was tooooo cool! Colton's drink is the equilvalent of a Red Bull... Lifting board so that the on coming train can pass.
There are about 14 people, a motor cycle, and some wood on this train.
