For prayer:

Please would you pray for the urgent for political situation this weekend
Please pray for wisdom and discernment for our health and cockroaches and mossy bites.
Also would you pray for our finances, setting up costs have been hard on our budget
God is good and is our rock on which we stand here in Thailand and we know God is doing amazing things already.

Prayers have been answered:

Schooling for Leah and Natalie :

ICS is a international school with students from all round the world so we prayed and felt it was right to explore. The schooling is now sorted God is good our prayers were answered and we soooooooooooooooooo thank you all for your love prayers and support.
The girls are loving school : we get them up at 5.30 am for a 6.30 start of a one hour trip if traffic is ok. They are so happy to be at school.

Joel:

It is Joel's birthday today, one year old. It's strange for us celebrating his birthday in Thailand but exciting for Joel. The Thai people adore him to the point of just walking off with him in shops, he is not in danger - it's a Thai thing.

Us:

Life is very very hectic, understanding the Thai language not easy, but enjoyable. I started learning Thai at college this Monday for eight months, five days a week. My teacher will not speak English, only Thai. Gillian is home tutored with Joel so not so easy for her.
Traffic is very scary, five people on a bike and near misses every time you go out. We only use taxi -cheap but interesting. Think Alton Towers but 10 times more scary - am not kidding! I drove a work friends car the other day through Bangkok.
