Today we installed two deacons and one ruling elder at church! Pictured from left to right is Mac, Chai, and Pat. Mac and Pat are now deacons and Chai is a ruling elder. Dr. Natee is to the right installing them as leaders of New Community Fellowship church! A very exciting day, indeed. Thank you to all of you who are faithfully praying for godly men to lead the church here...keep praying and be encouraged as He is hearing our prayers. 
Paul took the boys on a little ride yesterday to the store to buy some ice cream. PJ has now graduated to riding on the back and Calvin now sits in the little seat on the front. They LIVE for this!
Friday, we joined the Bangkok homeschooler's group at the Dusit Zoo. We did a photo scavenger hunt. This picture is not of everyone in the group...maybe half? The ages range from 1ish (do they count???) to 12. We're not all missionaries and we're not all Christians but this picture we all happen to be Christians! I can't thank God enough for His bringing this group together. It's a lot of fun to go hang out with other homeschoolers!
So, the zoo itself was really nice. We had never visited this zoo before. Because we had a group of smaller children we didn't get to see all the animals. I am hoping we can take another trip there to see more of the zoo before heading back to the US...but we will have to see on that! Favorite animals that we did see? PJ's favorite was none other than the panther...and she was active too. You could see her spots even though her coat was black. And Calvin liked the hippos.
Pictured here with the bears are PJ and his new friend, Ethan. Ethan went along with us to the zoo while his mommy stayed behind with a sick little sister.
PS: The cooler weather has left us...nice and steamy hot again...but it sure was nice while it lasted!

How fun. I'm so glad you have this right now. So very exciting about installation of officers at Church. I don't know Pat and Mac well. However, it is thrilling to see Chai growing so much in leadership. It is neat for all of them. I wish we could visit just to see the changes and growth.
That's awesome about installation of some deacons and a ruling elder. Praise God!
Hope you all are well!
Thanks for the picture of the church service- we've been excited about that. Love the picture of all the boys on the motorcycle- I can't believe it! If you could just get you and Adele on there, you'd be oh so Thai! And love that you're hanging out with the homeschoolers. Miss you!
PJ is getting so long-legged. Wow he is growing fast.
And it hard to believe that Calvin is old enough to be riding with them on the bike.
Just for the fun of it, we need to see a pic of all five of you on the bike before you come back to the States.
love, momH
