Ever Wonder...
have you ever asked yourself... "i wonder what it looks like where Kristin is?!" - have you ever want to see this lovely place she speaks so highly of?! Welcome to the first ever tour of The Hope Center- media capital of Thailand! *(or at least the location of the media team)
hope you enjoy!

home sweet home...
Nothing says home to me like food, family, and farming. While here in Thailand I haven't technically been home but there have been a few key things that makes it feel more like...
Baking fresh platz *(HUGE shout out to Mennonite Girls Can Cook)
Food is always more 
enjoyable with having family around... and we have the best "adopted" family here in Thailand! Thanks to the Sinclair-Peters for hosting us and letting us invade their house and clean out their cupboards! *(not to mention allowing us to tag along with the amazing mission work they have been doing here for the past 11 years!)
If you want to know more of what Dave, Louise and their wonderful kids are up to, or if you feel the call to support them in there ministry out here to both the Thai and Burmese people check out THIS! *In other side news yesterday at the Burmese Church another 10 people asked to accept Jesus into their life and God has opened up a new door into a factory to share about His love and mercy! WOO! Pray for continued sharing of the Word and discipleship of new believers.
The last thing that really has brought me home is the fact that Chanchoengsao is the land rice paddies (rice fields). The other day we were driving at mad speeds by some gorgeous fields and all I could think about was home- and how the fields are doing, how the weather is, and how the family is!
Love you all!
*sorry I didn't get a picture of a rice combine yet... I'm hoping I can get one still.

Aprons were made with much love by Omi *aka mom;
as a way to remind us all to serve in whatever we do this summer.
I'm wishing i would have brought mine to Thailand, it would have come in handy with the platz!
I hope you are all doing well- a BIG hello to Emma, Lukas, Leah, Megan and of course Helen *(hope you're enjoying Simonhouse!) Mom & Dad- I will call ya soon! Barb & Dan, hope you're able to keep cool in your place! (or find a new place!?!) Andrew and Sher- Make wise choices! Nick- we will see you in Gretna!Aprons were made with much love by Omi *aka mom;
