Yesterday we arrived safely in Bangkok & spent the day with the Killars at Samaritan's Creations. We were greeted by the women at their center with warm smiles, roses, and singing. After eating lunch together and buying some of their beautiful jewelry, we had a time of worship and sharing testimonies. It was amazing to hear what God has done in the lives of these women, as well as how God is working in our own lives. We also played a few fun games to help us all get to know each other and remember each other's names. Thai names are hard to pronounce & remember! (For me at least) Anyway, Mike prepped us for the night, since we were going to go to the red light district. Many of us had no idea what to expect, so this was very helpful and relaxed us a bit. After a trip on the sky train, we broke up into groups and walked through red light district. Some of us chose to do a prayer walk, while others went into the bars to talk to the bargirls. It was heartbreaking to see these girls in this situation, but it was encouraging to know that Samaritan's Creations is there to show them the love of Christ, and offer them a way out of their lifestyle. Thank you for your prayers, I look forward to seeing what God will show us throughout the rest of our trip!
