Day 12 (Wednesday 26 Feb 2014) by Ben

I spent the morning designing a building.  The Chung Doi Church of Christ is planning to plant a new church outside of town.  They heard that I studied architecture and asked me to facilitate the design.  The commission to help with the design came at a time when I was really missing architecture and was an answer to my prayers.  I love that I am now doing something I love and serving God at the same time. 

Robert, Kara, Na, and I had lunch at the WEAVE organization.  They are organizing a leadership camp for refugee students in a few weeks.  It was great to talk with them about their work and make more solid plans for the camp.  We will be planning and executing activities for one of the days during the weeklong camp.  Stay tuned for updates on this awesome experience.

Sai came by for English lessons after we returned.  He had an assignment over an condensed version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.  Joshua taught Sai from the book of Luke while I read the book.  After that, I help Sai to write a good summary of each chapter.  Joshua and I made a great team today. 

Then we headed to Gethsemane Childrens Home.  I always leave that place feeling better than I came.  Ven and I are getting better at Takraw, but it will take a while before we match the skill level of some of these 12 year old kids. 

Until next time,

Ben
