Hectic hectic April

This month we bid farewell to 3 staff and while manpower is lacking, outreach still has to go on. So you can imagine the stress, especially having to search for a land in khek noi to build the integrated centre.

How this month looked like.
- refugee outreach at start of month at a province 400km away
- immd after rush back to kheknoi to help out with the mass food distribution.
- all while trying to find a land and hiking though potential plots.
- no land was found in the center of the village so we got one small piece just in case there is no land in the village.
- thunderstorm hit radion's office, flooding it with not only water but animals such as frogs, rats ans snakes as they scrambled for shelter.
- mass food distribution day rained heavily and food was all prepared. Just when we thought that no one was coming, more people poured in. 5 received Christ in that rainy event.
- storm tore off the roof of our garage.
- had to bring 18 roaring kids to Chiang mai for songkran.
- volunteer team arrived. 5 activity packed days bringing the kids out.
- still bargaining for land back in the village.
- received more calls for assistance in the refugee communiy.
- tomorrow I fly back to Singapore for more meetings.

I'm grateful for great staff, awesome volunteers and its just awesome to know the sweat and blood (literally) goes into creating a better tomorrow for the disadvantaged.
