Back from mission... i believe is a success and is fruitful trip, here is what happen......
1st day (wed)-- touch down, and still unsure of what is to come.. our host is the pastor( here name is Lawan) over there and another sister(15 yr old, name is Kan).. we waited at the airpot for like 30 min.. because she went to wrong terminal..lol.. we trip to use our autorom, but can't work at all, then we ask a thai guy to help us call(thank god for him).... we went for lunch, then went to the sch.. which is called Hope of wiang pa pao school(YES is a school build in Hope of God church name).. we teach English and teach them English songs, then also share the gospel in the sch, because not all are believers... but there are also some mistakes i made, which is trying to explain the game of polar bear.... their sch starts from 8am to 4pm from monday to friday... then in the night, we went for their cg in the school.. same as our style, but no games. after cg we went back to the church that we are staying, is Hope of Wiang pa pao church. overall 1st day was not so fruitful. because we did not expect that we will teach kids...
2nd day (thurs) -- woke up 7am to get ready, to go sch.. this time we are ready.. we went back there to teach and share Christ again... we went off a about 12pm to travel to this place called Phu chee fa.. is a long travel time.. like 4 hours.. very tiring... and along the way, God told me that the car will break down.. and true enough, when we are like 15min away to reach it broke down, we waited there for 30min for the brother from the highest village to come down.. meanwhile, we gave out snacks to the children there.. and they all are very happy... when the brother camp to pick us up, we travelled up, and it really really cold... we reached and we went to check in our room.. "hotel".. beautiful place.. and went to eat dinner.. we ate fried worms and fried cricket.. seriously is nice.. afer dinner we went to the room to have a leaders CG, everything is the same format.. and then we slp... overall, it got better, because we are more prepared for what is coming.
3rd day (friday) -- we went to climb puh chee fa!! is like a 20 to 30 story building.. no stamina when i climb.... once at the top, we sang praise and worship.. very very beautiful place.. the mountain is a divider between Thailand and Laos country.. so we prayed for both country.. because they plan to go Laos to outreach. went back down to have beakfast,and then travelled back to the province to this church called Hope mea ka chan.. and at night we went to another place for prayer meeting (it was 5 hours long) and there was holy spirit baptism... and the new believers were baptise! praise God... after the long and tiring day, went back to our another hostel which is behind hope mea ka chan went to bed around 1am+.... overall, the day is alright, we learn to keep praying.
4th day(sat) -- wake up early again at around 730, then ate breakfast and travel to this church called hope of chian Kong, is again a long travel... when we reach there is like lunch time, and we went to eat lunch at this restaurant(forgot name).. is beside this big river called river Kong(i think) and opposite is Laos!.. pastor Lawan told us that in the pass, 4000 Christians were killed because of their belief, and the government don't like them sharing Christ, so they killed them all... after lunch, we travel to the mountain again, to visit people... there are many farms, and also there is a Cg in that mountain area... we went back at around 530pm, and reach chian kong at around 730pm.. went for dinner(delicious)... then went back for a short time of worship and prepare for next day.. overall is a blessed day.. we bless them by paying for lunch and serving them the whole day.
5th day(sun) -- WOW!!!! i became a PASTOR!!, now i know how jasmine felt when she wants to teach the word.. is really a different feeling from teaching in a unit or cg.. teach on "commitment to a local church" after the worship session last night, i went to prepare the teaching, i don't know what to teach, i asked god and i went through my teachings is all not relevant to what they need.. then my eyes caught that teaching and i went to ask the pastor ( his name is Luf) and he said YEs i need that.. so i start to praise God..haha.. so after service, had lunch with them and together with another pastor (his name is sin te founder of chian Kong, then Luf took over), and they have a big vision, they want to build a christian hospital, school in that area.. they are preparing the money, and have start buying the land, will be ready by 2055(long way)... the pastor said he is being encourage through what i teach, and it reminded his calling from god.. so really thank God that he used me... after lunch, we went to Hope mae suay for their 26th anniversary.. is really heart warming and is really nice... aftr anniversary, went to this children home to stay for the night, pastor Lawan is the director, she really love kids alot, that's why she build that home.. it has 100+ kids staying, which means she has 100+ children.. a big heart for kids....
so that is the end of the whole trip... fruitful, exciting and fun... those who didn't come for this trip is a waste, but we will go back there again.. because they want us to go back to help teach english, chinese and also help their worship ministry... and the food there is really GOOD!!, simple but yet is NICE!!!!!...
i caught 3 things from this trip, 1st is their simple life, it helps them to focus on God more, no distractions from TV or computer.. 2nd is pray, they pray everywhere they go, even for small things, they believe that God will help them.. they have big faith. and last their heart of worship.. is really shows out.. whatever they have they use it to worship GOD.
Be bless
be encourage
be inspire by the holy Ghost
