Last night after dinner we broke the girls up into four groups and taught english lessons for almost two hours. There are a few girls that can speak a little English but most of them are just learning the alphabet and the basics. There is a huge need for English teachers here. Pastor Sayan said when the girls graduate from the Home of Blessing if they can speak English they have a much better chance for a good job and a better chance to get into a Thai University. Please pray for full time English teachers to come and stay at the Home of Blessing. I am praying that God uses us as part of the solution.
THE BEST NEWS I"VE HEARD SINCE WE ARRIVED--when speaking to the Pastor he told us that none of the 126 girls here at the Home of Blessing have ever been exposed to prostitution or the sex trafficing industry that is so prominent in Thailand. Everyone of the girls were rescued before they were sold into prostitution or protected by God through other means until a space at the Home of Blessing became available! This is a far different story then when the Pastor and his wife started the Home of Blessing over 18 years ago. God is working in mighty ways out here and more and more girls are being rescued and given a safe home and more importantly are being led to the Lord.
The work, however, is not finished and there are so many girls that are unrescued. The Home of Blessing needs more awareness and support. We need more people like Pastor Sayan and his wife that are willing to lay down their lifes for the calling God has placed before them. Our team is working on a documentary that will create this awareness. We are interviewing the pastors of the area and the girls here at the Home of Blessing. We are going to make a video that will not only pave the way for future ministry here at the Home of Blessing but for all of northern Thailand. Thank you for all of your prayers!
