Hi there!!!
Sorry that it has taken a while to get onto here. The Internet Cafe I used to use has closed down, so its been a bit tricky. Still have managed to find another one now so hopefully we'll get things going!!!
Flight was long but uneventful. Kuwait Airways looked after us well. We arrived 4:00 yesterdaye afternoon, met by Ate Sol and other friends from Kanlungan. It was great to see them all again. Got to the Shalom at about 6pm, showered and then out for a meal at TGI Fridays's!!!
Today has been busy - in our morning devotions we looked at the passage from Ephesians 6 - using the armour of God!!! Then onto the Drop-in Centre and Office, an introduction to Kanlungan to those who had not been before and an opportunity to see more friends for those who had.
Then it was on to the New House!!! And what a great place it is - so much lighter than the old centre. It really is a blessing from God. We enjoyed the Children's presentation and then did a small one of our own (well done Mark H for the puppet!!!). Lunch followed and then we left for Smokey Mountain. Difficult to know what to say at this point!!! I'll encourage some of the other team members to blog their thoughts later.
Back at the hotel now and getting ready for a trip to the Mall of Asia.
Please ket us have your comments - its great to hear from you.
Yours
MarkA

Praying that you are ready and prepared with His armour in all your ventures on this trip x.
Good to hear you all arrived safely. Praying for you all. Will check daily for latest news. Missing you already! Love you all. - God bless Eileen & Dave xx
Good to catch up with your news. It must be so wonderful to see the new centre. Have you thought of a new song? Tell Ian not to scare the children with his groovy dance moves. No one deserves to have to witness that.
How's the Shalom?
We'll be thinking of you lots!
Good to hear from you. Ah the delights of the Shalom Hotel....don't forget to ask for a flea spraying!! Look forward to hearing all your news. Please send my love to those that know me.....Shrimpo
HI Mark & co. Glad to hear you've arrived ok. Reading Mark H's entry reminded me of when Helen went to a rubbish dump village over there too. We don't know we're born here do we? Give our love to the staff and children. Things are Ok here - church still standing and people not arguing as far as I know! Cooney was 82 on saturday and Reuban made his first appearance at church. You're all very much in our prayers. Love Chris.F.
