Sunday

Yesterday the youth led worship (Saturday was children’s day in Thailand). Before the sermon, Life (yesterday’s speaker) interviewed several children. I don’t know the contents of the interviews, but I enjoyed laughing with everyone else. 

After church I was invited to eat lunch with Dan. Dan met (and eventually married) a Thai woman while attending Asbury. After pastoring in the US for a decade they moved to Thailand. I had a good conversation with him. It was good in part simply because it was both in English and kingdom centered. He also gave me some helpful pointers for my class in the afternoon. 

As part of my stay here in the church, I’m teaching one English class per week for the church. The classes are primarily young adults from outside the church looking to improve their English. The money the church receives goes to work the church does in the northeast of the country. 

 

I had an unexpectedly small class of two students. There is not much difference between pair activities, group activities, and class activities. I believe the class went well.
