CK Christmas Celebration

At the beginning of the month we moved to our ministry location in Chiang Klang. We lived out of our suitcases for 3 weeks while we awaited last minute details on our home. While we waited we shopped and shopped and shopped. . .it seems to never end! Some of it is fun, but when the temps start soaring so does the temper tandrums (and we're not talking about Aleah). On one particulary hot day we ended a long shopping day at a little coffee shop. While we waited on our iced drinks we noticed a themometer and while we were sitting inside this little place it read 93 degrees! So much for the "cold season"

On Our first Sunday in town, Chiang Klang Church had their Christmas celebration:
Aleah and the pastor's daughter (Manna - yes like the manna that fell from heaven but pronounced a little different)

The church was packed with people from all the near by villages!

Aleah made quick friends with these girls because she loved the tassels on their shirts:

Thank you so much for your prayers as we packed and made the move to CK. Everything went smoothly and we will be living in our supervisor's home until our house is ready. . .more to come!!
