Our five Latin teammates have been with us in Thailand for a year now and in these few weeks are all headed back to their homes in Ecuador and Nicaragua. They will be missed very much!!!! We loved have a multi-cultural team this year, (good for brushing up on our Spanish comprehension). We appreciated their cheerful willingness to endure hard times and strange food and for their compassion and love for their Thai friends. We were so glad for all the new friends and contacts they brought into our lives. They were a lot of fun at meetings and we enjoyed the times of worshiping with them in Spanish. Please be praying that some of them will be able to return to our team after accomplishing things back home (finishing school for some, raising support for others, planning for visas and work in Thailand). There are definitely obstacles to their return but we know and believe that with God anything is possible! We love you guys and will miss you very much!
