John’s Blog | Saturday English Camp

Greetings from The Christian Mission. Maeo and I are sitting in our favorite hotel room in Khon Kaen. We left Nakhon Phanom at about 1 pm after church and arrived here about 6 pm. We have three or dour doctors’ appointments on Monday and one Tuesday morning. Then the trip back to Nakhon Phanom sometime on Tuesday. While we are here, we will have Pizza Hut Pizza once and probably have a McDonald’s double cheeseburger. I am sorry the closest Subway is in Bangkok; about 13 hours away!

Pictures here are our Saturday English Camp. We left home at about 7:30 am and arrived at the school about 8:30. The students were already there and ready to go. We had a half hour warm up and our kids started teaching at 9 am and worked to 12 noon. Then a fantastic lunch – sorry I didn’t take any pictures of that. Then the kids went back to work from 1 pm until 2:30. They played games and prepared for their performance. From 2:30 to 3 pm the students put on a show based on what they had learned in the morning classes. At three pm we headed home and got there about 4 pm. After a break of an hour or so, all went out to an all you can eat buffet – a favorite of all of our kids.

We are now getting ready to do it all over again next Saturday, March 5, at another school. Keep us in your prayers.

This school was so happy that they want us back again whenever we can get there – Praise God.

Pray for the kids as they take final exams this week and get ready for summer school.
