Cookie pics!

Tee Noi

A few pictures from the pre-school class this morning. The letter was "C" and we had sugar cookies for snack. They had a ball and were so funny...and messy. Every week for preschool, we take pictures of all the kids with their snack - which starts with the letter we are teaching them - and make a book for the next with simple English sentences. These are a few of the pics I took this week.

Beautiful, aren't they?! Praise God that he provided this place for them to grow and learn. These little ones would be much worse off, probably filled with worms and sick, not to mention not having much hope for the future or knowing the name of Jesus, if God had not paved the way for them to come here. Tee Noi, the first child, probably would not be living right now for sure if he had not come. He's had a lot of asthma and pneumonia issues since being here and probably would have died for sure if he had those issues in his village. Sai has also been sick since being here and her and her sister, Jam, were filled with worms when they came. But now they are getting much healthier and certainly much happier. Our God is GOOD.

"But you, O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it and take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless. Break the arm of the wicked and evil man; call him to account for his wickedness that would not be found out. The Lord is King forever and ever; the nations will perish from his land. You hear, O Lord, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry, defending the cause of the fatherless and oppressed, in order that man, who is of the earth, may terrify no more.
Psalms 10:14-18 (emphasis added)
