Projects in Chachoengsao

Recently a team from a church in Prince George, Canada came and helped us with some projects. The first was a house for May and her 3 lovely daughters; Mew, Maay, and Min (also in the picture is their friend, Waa). May and her girls have been living with her in-laws in a broken down 2 room house with 9 people living there. They slept in a small lean-to at the front of the house.
The local land-owner gave May a plot for very low rent, but there was no way she could afford to build on it. She was the only wage-earner for the 9 people-and only makes about 120.00 dollars a month. But God knew her need, and the money was provided to build a small home for her and her girls.

Another project was to replace and enlarge the broken deck at Baa Lek's house. We use this for our kids club which meets there every week. God has blessed these faithful believers, and they are blessing others in return.
"Lord, we thank you for your faithfulness in meeting these needs. Bless those who gave and worked to make it happen. Use these gifts as an opportunity to grow your kingdom in that community. Amen"
