Goodnight and Goodluck

Hey Everyone,

Thanks so much for the comments!

I don't have any time or materials to add pictures to this update, sorry :(

We just left the island of Koh Chang for the final time. It was tough. We were able to spend the last two days with all of the villagers. Last night we played The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in thai, and they loved it. And tonight we showed a slideshow that Alisha and Rodney compiled of photos from over the last 3 months, and they loved it up.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to check my internet until I'm stateside again. But hopefully I can update this with a lot more pictures at that point. If I can check the net in Bangkok or Korea, I will try to update more.

So all of the homes are built on the island, and they just finished a shed for the generator. Next I believe a team is coming in to help with their other needs, to fix up the island, and build the church on the hill. Keep praying for the island!

It has been so great to build the relationships we have, and was sad to leave. Most everyone recognizes each other, and knows each other by names, after working together for so long. It's a very stark contrast to the way things were when the first team came to the island.

Anyway, yes. Things are well. I'll try to update some more soon. As for us, our work is completed at Koh Chang. Tomorrow we drive down to Phuket, then fly to Bangkok. We will then fly to Korea in a couple days and attend the CM2007 conference! So pray for that as well :)

Thanks for everything!!!

Ben
