An eye glass clinic was scheduled in a town seventy-nine kilometers east of our home base. People were invited to come and tokens or tickets given out. Throughout the day they came from varied socio-economic standing and religious beliefs.
Seventy-five people in all, with various beliefs and faiths. Fifty-nine people were given glasses. The group we work with was recently started and is growing in attendance. They meet in the street level shop of a traditional 'shop-house' where grain was once distributed.
The eye clinic was a strong outreach and sign of goodwill within the community.
The weekend included a joy-filled Sunday meeting with a teaching on the four truths from the story of Jesus multiplying a little boy's lunch to feed five thousand. (John 6:1-32)
1. God knows what to do - and you don't.
2. Jesus will use anyone.
3. Whatever you have - thank God for it.
4. You can't out-give God
This is our last week - how quickly the time has gone. We finish our time in here with a Friday evening meeting Sunday morning meeting, before flying out to Bangkok for two days before coming home.
Gary and I are continually grateful for your love, prayers and support.
Praise the Lord! Pat
