It rained so hard last night and see what we got up this morning to. It was somewhat expected but we never knew when it's actually going to come. The houses by the river banks are flooded badly, a lot of people have to be evacuated including our pastor's family. The staff helped moved their stuff to the higher place and right before they were evacuated themselves, the water went in to their house. Now they are staying at a guesthouse nearby. No major damage, but a lot shops and stores are closed down by the river area.  Oak (the pastor's son) said that the last time they've had this was in 2006. And it was so bad and they are hoping that this year doesn't get as bad as that year.  So please pray for the city right now. Not just Chiang Mai, but there are other 12 provinces of Thailand that are having this flooding issue. It's been going on for the past month or so. But it just got to Chiang Mai today.  The house we stayed in suppose to get floode

Yeah, that is what they said to me. But me and Kayla (a girl from Bethany intern) rock the field. We had a ton of fun. Yeah, that is what happen in the church last Sunday. They had a soccer competition at the church and then grilled pork buffet (moo kha tha) afterward! It is a great event where everyone gather and enjoy each others company. It is so good to be with the body of Christ. The Sunday service was really good, the preacher was a missionary from Australia and he preach on really good subject that encourages a lot of us. But what's really good is that the pastoral team feels like they want to pray for the missionaries in Chiang Mai, they got a word that sometimes what missionaries are doing doesn't seem matter or making a big impact. But they just want to let us know that we are making a difference and that God sees all of it. So they had all the missionaries stood up and have the Thais pray for us. An older lady came up to me and a few other girls gather around me and

Hello again everyone!! Oh man, it's been a busy week! The Bethany interns got here and things got a little crazy from there. But besides all that I am doing super well and more excited than ever. Well, I just want to share with you this story that happened about 2 weeks ago. We had a Bible study after church and we were talking about God, and if Jesus really risen from the dead. So we got into a pretty good discussion, which hardly ever happen because the girls just doesn't seem to care that much. But that week, they were, so they were asking questions and we were able to discuss things out. I personally had a breakthrough moment, on which I explain of how's Christ's resurrection should effect our life? I spoke Thai (with some Biblical terms) for 10 minutes straight without stopping, and words just came out so lively out of my mouth. I can't even believe it. The girls were also kind of in shock that I was able to speak the message so clearly to them. It was the Holy

Like I said in my previous blog, that I have moved in to my new house with my new house mates: Jasmine and Amy. There is a lot of things we have to do for that house, but it came with a furniture and reasonable price. We were really happy to have the deal with that house because of the location, that it is near to the city, a walk to the students houses and a walk to the church I am working with. It's just a blessing to all of us. Couple of you have asked what the house look like, so here is some pictures of the house so you can have an idea how awesome our house is. :) This is the front of our house and here's a few shots on the inside. It is not completely arranged yet, but we're getting there. :) Yes, we are so blessed with such a nice house. My room is a lot smaller than the one I have before but I like it kind of small. That way I don't have to worry about cleaning it and filling it. Haha... I am just blessed, so blessed. And this is my new transportation around th

Sawatdee-kha everyone! It is almost been a month since I am back in Thailand. Loving it! The first week was settling into the apartment, I stayed with the Chiang Mai House of Prayer, the room was wide and nice, I am so blessed to be able to stay with them. It is so great to see many people and friends that you haven't seen in a long time and I was able to catch up with some of them. Being at the church also just bless my heart. I was able to talk with some friends (though I am still getting my Thai language back) and just had a really blessed time with the Thais. Couple of weeks ago, a few friends from Bethany came to the city! Hurray! There are going to be interns joining us in a about a week from now and I am just super excited about that. I was able to help them with finding houses, and in fact, yesterday I moved in to my new house, which I shared with two of my great friends from Bethany. It is a lovely one story house with a lot of trees and plants so it keeps us co
