In Thai, that would sound like "korp koon mahk, ka!!!"
I received word from Suradet this morning that the victims of the Bangkok flooding who had been staying at Hot Springs have been able to return home! They have a huge mess to dig out from, but are glad to be in a rebuilding phase, looking toward the future.
Meanwhile, Suradet wanted us to know that he and Fahkrahm Church from Bangkok deeply appreciate the generosity of Highview, and the $2,671.00 that was collected in a special offering here on November 20th. That money has been divided up between expenses incurred by Hot Springs while their guests were with them, and the folks at Fahkrahm Church themselves, to help them in their clean up efforts.
What a joy to be able to partner so meaningfully and quickly in this with Suradet and Yupa on this matter, and to know that they have felt our love in a tangible way.
Thank you to everyone who contributed.
If there are any other pictures or stories, we'll be sure to let you know.
