Exploring Caves





Thursday night is the cell group for the church here. Usually all the college girls cook dinner for everyone. We were having cell group at the zone that night so all the girls where busy in the kitchen near by. I walked by to see what was going on and to see if they needed help. They were excited and quickly showed me what to do. They were fixing foods I've never even see or heard of but i did my best to follow their directions. After a quick devo we just hung out and played cards for the rest of the night.
The next day Robert told us to be ready and waiting because we were having "mystery equipping". So the next day he took us in to the mountains to these hiking trails in this beautiful forest. We all went our separate ways and had alone time. I sat on this big rock that overlooked this little stream flowing down the mountain. It was powerful to sit in Gods creations and just be with Him. After equipping time Robert took us exploring through all of these incredible caves. We would have to squeeze through these small holes into pitch darkness to get to some of these places. In a couple large caves we would spread out in every corner and sing or pray to God. Our voices would echoe in the large empty caves but it was just so powerful. After one chain prayer we just all stood there in complete silence feeling the spirit move around us.
Every fourth Friday night all the churches in Chiang Mai get together and have a devotional. Last night the Reagan's hosted it and we helped get stuff ready and planned fun games. I love worshiping and fellowshiping with the people here because they are so passionate about their faith. They have song books so we can sing along in Thai and we even sing some songs in English!After getting back from Roberts the AGGIES GOT HERE!!! These are the Aggies Leah and I spent a week with in Cambodia, so we are pretty excited to see them again. Today we are having a sports day with the aggies and Payap students at a beautiful waterfall. Exciting!!
