Reading Has begun!



The Norris/Tandy team are busy with 28 readers and more signing up. Above is a photo of the building where we are reading. A good percentage of the readers are Chinese students who are in Thailand attending Payap University. The Christian Zone where we are working is very near Payap University. Our students are so enthusiastic and are anxious to improve their English skills. We are reading the book of Luke with them. Tom has one student who is reading the last of the LST workbooks. They are reading Genesis which will be thought provoking for him.

There are 4 interns working at the Christian Zone. What a joy it is to work together. Most of the interns are also studying the Thai language at the University.

Not only are we happy to be studying here, but we are also enjoying the beautiful weather and country of Thailand. We are in short sleeves, while our friends at home are wearing layers of clothing to protect them from the cold weather. Nebraska has a 90% chance of 10" of snow, while we have a 99% chance of sunshine and high 80's degrees.

Please keep us in your prayers, that we can help our students improve their English, but most of all introduce them to Jesus and the Christian Life.
