They Call Her Ms. CRICS.

*|MC:SUBJECT|*

CRICS--Chiang Rai International Christian School.  Our kids attend this school and Chris has been teaching there for three years.  Because of it's homeschool roots, the teachers at CRICS are called Mr. or Ms. "first name." So for one of Chris' students, instead of Ms. Chris she is Ms. CRICS!

CRICS exists to reach Thai people through Christian education. The CRICS student body is about 30% Thai (most from Buddhist families). Recently I met a local business woman who is hoping to send her kids to the school. I asked her why, even though she is Buddhist, did she want to send her kids to a Christian school. She told me the reputation of CRICS is excellent, it is a safe place for students, and it is the best international school in Chiang Rai.

CRICS also exists for servant families ministering in church planting, community development, human trafficking, and other efforts. This school is an anchor for missionary families like ours, helping us to establish our family in our Thailand home and fulfill our calling.

Changing Lives Who Will Change Nations

You may recall we have been directing missionary internships for 15 years. We recently completed the first ever Go To Nations (GTN) Timothy Internship Program in the United States (Jacksonville, FL). Five new missionaries were equipped and empowered, they have been filled up and are ready to be sent out!

Generations

Send More Workers, Lord! Go To Nations has a proven equipping track that has been empowering new missionaries to go to the nations (see what I did there?) since the 1980's. Dave and I have been a part of serving with the Equipping Division for the past 15 years. 

Balaan Bukid, Guimaras

This being Maundy Thursday we decided to join the pilgrims here in Iloilo and visit the Balaan Bukid on the nearby island of Guimaras. The hike details the stations of the cross, with the culmination of large cross on the highest point on the island. Afterwards we swam at the nearby Alubihod Beach. It was a perfect day to hike to the cross and then also to enjoy some sun and surf.
