Prayer Journey: Day Two

This morning we went with the prayer team to Bang Phli, the area where Dan lives. We toured a wat and the old market area of Bang Phli before walking back to Dan's apartment for a time of worship, discussion, and prayer. Before heading back home, Dan treated us to a meal of grilled chicken, somtam (spicy papaya salad) and sticky rice.

It was a good day of learning more about Buddhism as well as being encouraged by the fellowship and prayer.
