We are down to our last days in East Asia. We have been blessed during our time here. Now that the conference has finished we have been spending some time with our friends that live on this side of the world. Thank you for your support.

The Sonquest Rainforest VBS was Great
We had a wonderful experience serving this week and leading the VBS and youth camp. Thank you for your prayers. The 6th month old that was sick in the hospital is now out. Their family will be able to return to their home next week. Last night we were able to gather for dinner with some friends from Kentucky that are serving here. The children have their cards that the children from First made for them. Here are some recent pictures.

Having Fun on Day 3
The team is having a fun time with the children, and doing an excellent job teaching and leading. We were able to have dinner with our partners. They are very thankful for all the gifts that you all sent them. Their girls are wearing their new flip flops and mom and dad are enjoying the cupcakes and reese's peanut butter cups.
Be in prayer for:
- The family here that has a 6 month old in the hospital with pneumonia
- That the training time today would be challenging and rewarding for the adults attending the conference
- Energy and rest for our team as we lead the children
Thanks again for all your support.

Great Day 2 of VBS
We are having a blessed time. All the volunteers are doing an excellent job with the children. Here are some new request:
- Pray for Issac, a 3-year old, who is crying and pouting all day because he can't go to the meetings with his mom and dad. We have to have one-on-one attention for him, and it distracts the other children from learning. Pray that in the days ahead he will be at peace.
- Pray that all the volunteers will be renewed with rest and energy each day, with a good night sleep.
- Pray for the sickness that is going around some of the families.

We Made It Through Day 1
Today was our first day of VBS and youth camp. We taught the children the parable of the different types of soil of where the seed was planted. We played name games, traveled through our make believe Jungle Gym (recreation room), and took the groups swimming. The children enjoyed seeing the wall name signs that are children made and decorated back in Owensboro. Pray for a good night rest and a renewed source of energy for the days ahead.
