Time with Noom's family - and a new looking house :-)

On the weekend Noom's older brother and family, as well as his father and a team from YWAM Bangkok came to Ubon. We went to the village for a night so that Noom's mum could have all her sons together, and then came back to our house with Noom's brother, sister-in-law and nephew. On Sunday the rest of the team with Noom's dad came and stayed the night. We had a big dinner and house-warming party, inviting our YWAM family in Ubon and Sisaket to come and join too :-)

God has also been very faithful since the last blog, and continues to meet my needs even in the small things (after nutella and crunchy peanut butter he also gave me pizza and then brownies). He also provided us with more monthly support and a donation to keep us going this month :-) We are hoping soon to get internet in our house for alot of reasons, one being so we don't have to use internet at cafes all the time, and another so we can blog more too!

So thank God for His faithfulness in the last week - it never ends! We don't have much materialisticly but we have so much in God :-)


Here are some pictures of the last week...in Noom's village with his family, at our house (while his brother Pan designs, giving our kitchen a new look!!), and the house-warming party.

 Our kitchen - thanks to P Pan and Noom! P Pan painted the wall and gave us the idea of setting it up this way, like a cafe. Noom cleaned and set it up today :-)

And the last picture: our garden, the sitting area - everything made by Noom! (except the hammock)
