We made it to the first stop on our long journey home. We arrived at Bangkok International Airport at 5:00 pm Bangkok time, made it to the Ebina House Hotel and checked in. Since we don’t have to be at the airport to fly to Tokyo until 4:00 am, we left our luggage at the […]

Yes, it was a very emotional evening. I used James 4, didn’t go into depth too much, I also thew in Romans 8:28. I found myself crying before I really even got started doing the bible study, I am a very emotional guy. At least I wasn’t the only one out of my group that […]

Over the past couple weeks I have learned to appreciate the many things God has blessed me with during my lifetime. None of the 51 children who live here at Im Jai House have parents who are living or that care enough to want them. Most of the kids here have been abandoned because their […]

Thai dogs don’t speak English, I had always been curious about that. But, God speaks every language. The worship service in Chiang Mai was a wonderfully uplifting experience. These people practice their faith in the middle of adversity, in the middle of a land full of idols and the influx of western culture. Hmm, I […]

This is pretty crazy. We have been chillin’ at the airport in Chiang Mai, Thailand; I guess the people from Im Jai House forgot about us :(. They were supposed to pick us up at the airport when we arrived at 10:30, it is currently 12:48. It has been a very exciting trip, so far. […]
