Day 13 (Thursday 27 Feb 2014) by Kara

The day started off with a plan to visit some friends across town.  They are from a school on the Thai-Myanmar border.  They have come to The Zone for an intensive English week twice before.  Currently, they are in Chiang Mai to attend BEAM, a school to that helps students from Burma receive a GED equivalent.  We wanted to see our friends and measure for a bunk bed that they need.  After we arrived, we caught up and measured for the new bed.  They accepted an invitation to join us for Cell Group and hopped in the truck to go back to the Zone.

At the Zone we played ping pong and card games until time to prepare for dinner.  Gillian generously volunteered to cook for Cell Group.  We helped chop and wash under the guidance of chef G.  We made pasta with olive oil, mushrooms, and bacon.  It was delicious. Balloon also made omelets with pork and onions.  We ate together as a church, and then headed downstairs for a lesson.

Vern shared with us a great lesson about The Lord’s Prayer.  After the lesson, we celebrated Gip’s 12^th spiritual birthday.  After a long day, some of us called it a day and went to sleep, while others continued the Thursday night Movie night tradition.

Until next time,
