Last Month at a Glance...October 2011

At this time last year, The Rock was being painted with a fresh coat of paint...just a few days before Hatyai was hit by a surprise flood that swept away a lot of shack-homes, furniture, food, TV sets, motorcycles and even a few stray cows (May they rest in peace). Though the city has returned to normal, as the rainy season rolls around again, everybody has been watching the sky suspiciously.
At Baansila, we have begun peeling the moldy spots of paint from the wall. Some of it was already bubbling and falling off like gritty snowflakes, but the rest of the job took almost 5 days worth of chipping away with paint scrapers. Thanks to the help of our friends and the kids, the wall is clean and clear! We can start re-painting it....just as soon as we are sure it won't flood this year.

Good Samaritans is just Around...

One afternoon while we were preparing for our christmas gathering one lady came to us. She brought some kitchen stuffs and some christmas decors. She is awesome...! Actually this lady is a good friend of our Team leader. We chatted a little and she said that she will come back the following day to attend the christmas gathering. As she promised, she came back the following day, to our surprise shebrought three boxes of snack foods. Then the following day we went house to house to distribute some. We gladly receive, we freely give.

We also received used clothes, school supplies, kitchen stuffs,office stuffs, etc.

We are very thankful to our supporters. Godbless you more and more..! To God be the Glory...!
