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.

Short Team Visit
A 4 day visit of a team from other training organization maybe not enough but what they saw and experienced were an eye opener for them. I belive the time they spent with us become an encouragement to them. They said that was their first time to be with these kind of kids.. They gave a bath to the kids, cut their finger nails. The love of God was been expressed in their lives with the kids lives. Two afternoons we spent time with the kids also in the open field wherein we can play games with them. Friday, November 4, 2011

o For the upcoming activity
(Dec. 10th is the End-of-the-Year/Christmas Party!)
o For Volunteers
o For a Tuk-Tuk or a Car
(so we can pick up all the kids- now there are too many of them to sit on the motorcycle!)
