Saturday, June 26 - Campus Team

A cereal breakfast as usual was not the case for Saturday morning. Dave was gracious enough to make pancakes for everyone which was a nice change from cereal every morning. Lee was nice enough also to finish the pancakes the girls were unable to finish. After breakfast we headed over to the church at which point we split up and the campus team stayed to decorate the building. We then headed over to the badminton courts. After a long hard battle two of our team members came out on top: Jessica got 4th and Ricky got 2nd.

Our team then went back to our apartments and were able to take very refreshing well deserved showers. We then headed back to the church for a party. The party was full of music, games, testimonies of Chantelle and a Thai person, and the national anthems of both America and Thailand. We then gave away the trophies to 1st 2nd and 3rd places and celebrated the birthday of a young Thai man by singing Happy Birthday and eating ice-cream cake. We then headed back to the apartments for debriefing and sleep. It was a great day and thanks you very much for you prayers and thoughts!

Saturday June 26-Mercy Team

Hello all, I'm usually on the Campus team but on Saturday the roles were switched around as all the guys who are on Campus team went on Mercy team and of course the girls switched to Campus team from Mercy team so that they could play in the badmitton tournament. First though, the morning started off in a great way with Dave bringing us delicious chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, another great change from cereal! After breakfast we rode on a song-taew to church and my group, all the guys, went to Mahatthai 3 to finish our concrete work and other projects. Saturday's concrete work went much faster than Fridays, many of the Thai team members helped us and members of the community also came so that the Thais became really the leaders of the project while we just filled in where needed. Also, Mr. Hendrikse and Mr. Bolkema finshed their cabinent they have been working on for the past couple days. After doing concrete from 10-4ish and completley finishing the concrete in the Sala we went back to BFL to shower and take a bit of a nap/rest time. Then we went to Futsaholic, which is a really nice outdoor soccer field complex which is roofed and has nets all around the field. It has 3 fields and is just a really nice facility to play in. We played 4 games of soccer, only winnning our first sadly but it was really fun to play against the Thais. Our strategy was to just pack it in on defense and try to keep the other teams from scoring, Lee was our goalie and I think he found his new career for the future :) Even though we didn't do too well it was loads of fun. After soccer, we went back to BFL and got some sleep after a really tiring day. I know my day is Saturday, but I have to add a litttle bit from Sunday. On Sunday, one o the foreign exchange students from our school, Sara Sornpaisarn's parents came to church with us. After church, the four seniors in our group and the Bolkemas went out to lunch with the Sornpaisarns to a really nice resteraunt where we got to try many differnt foods including Crab, Prawn, Shrimp, Jellyfish, and some famous Chinese soups, it was lots of fun trying to crack open the crabs, and really eat everything with your fingers. We now know why Sara is such a good friend, her parents are extremley nice and great people and it was so fun meeting with them. So thats pretty much it for now, see you guys in a few days!

Hey everyone! This is the team in Thailand! Sorry this blog is so late. It is Sunday night and I am going to try to remember Tuesday. We started our day with breakfast and devotions at the BFL. We then headed to the ministry center to hear two testimonies from the ladies from Napada. (Napada is a handbag ministry where ladies from the community meet everyday to make awesome Thai purses for us and others to enjoy.) After that we prepped for the VBS for the afternoon. We left for lunch at the market with Sarah and Mary. After lunch we went to Mahatthai 3 to do some more work. We painted rafters and washed roof tiles for Som-o's house. It was HARD work! Nobody complained or whined, so that was good. I think we all saw what we have that the people in Mahatthai don't and thought better than to complain. At 5:30 we went to supper at the Sala. We went to Mahatthai 1 to do our second night of VBS. It ended up being in front of a giant Buddah. After VBS we had our first experience in the night market. It was alot of fun. After the night market we went back to the BFL to go to bed.
With love from the team,
--Taylor Kappers signing out.

Friday, June 25th
This morning the whole group woke up early to make it to the church by 9:00. We met as a group with Dave and the crew for devotions and prayer. After devotions, both the campus team and the mercy team headed over to Mahathai for various projects. A small group of us went to Somo's house to help with construction on the roof and bathroom. Another group finished moving a seemingly endless hill of dirt. The last and largest group worked demolishing an old concrete patio and replacing it with a brand new concrete one. Overall, the day was hot and tiring, but by God's grace we were able to get several projects accomplished and no one was seriously injured. After our work at Mahathai we went back and freshened up in our apartments. We then headed over to the church ministry building for an English fair. Local Thais came to our 8 different stations to learn various English lessons, including telling time, learning English songs, and learning how to survive an English job interview. After the English fair some of our group went and walked through the night market. When we got back to the apartments we met for a quick debriefing of the day before bed. After that, some of the kids took the elevator to the roof of the apartments to view the night sky over Bangkok.
Thank you for your continuous prayers,
Halie

Thursday, June 24, 2010:

Sa wat dii kha! (hello) from Thailand. Today was our day away--our day of rest and adventure. The three "old" lady adult leaders, along with Mary Randolph and Jan Veldhorst, headed out on the bus, then the sky train, and arrived at the Jim Thompson House and Museum--silk manufacturing. We saw beautiful gardens, unique architecture in his home and lots of Buddhas (scary). If you would like to know more about Jim Thompson, google him. : ~ )

Next, we went to a mall in downtown Bangkok and ate lunch. We enjoyed our first Thailand Japanese cuisine experience. We let Jan do the ordering as she ordered in Thai. The food was delicious. If you would like to see a picture of our food, see Doris!

We did our very best to help the Thailand economy. We purchased souvenirs, both for ourselves and our family and friends. We got some really fun deals because we had Jan with us and she took us to her favorite shops. The owners like her so they gave us great discounts. Being Dutch, we REALLY appreciated that! If you would like to see a souvenir, see Nancy!

In the shops, we met some wonderful Thai people. They are so friendly and quiet. The women speak in such quiet voices. Needless to say, this was not enough noise to cover up the sound of Chantelle tipping over a basket full of chop sticks. If you would like to see how fast chop sticks can be picked up in a foreign country, see Chantelle!

Last but not least was an hour-long foot massage for less than $6.00 American money...aaaaahhhhhh! All five of us were treated royally from the minute we walked into the
room. We were busy talking for a few minutes but then we relaxed and all talking stopped. Hey, guys, if you would like to keep us quiet, get us gift certificates for a massage near you.

We had a fantastic day out! We joined the rest of the gang at church for a pizza party.

Blessings on your day!
Nancy, Doris, and Chantelle

Thursday, June 24 "Group 3"

Today we broke into three groups and went out to see the city. I was a part of a group with Jim H., Bret F., Ben J., Zack F., and Dave Veldhorst. We began by taking the bus and skytrain to downtown Bangkok. The air conditioning in the skytrain was the first highlight of the trip! We then walked for 5-10 minutes to the dock where we got on a boat on the Chao Phraya River which we took to a Buddhist temple containing the reclining Buddha (46 meters long)-which translates to "really big". A tour guide took us around the temple area and explained the sights. He also explained that Buddhist monks are required to obey 220+ commandments. Do you think they read all of those in church every Sunday? Next we went back up the river on the boat to the skytrain station and headed back to downtown. After finding a restaurant with American food (hamburgers and fries), we rode a tuk tuk (three-wheeled) taxi to the Bangkok Bible College and Seminary. Then we walked through downtown to a mall, where we wandered around the shops for a short while, before returning home for pizza and Pepsi. We had a wonderful time seeing an amazing city (and enjoyed some American food for a change). God has blessed us in many ways during this trip, and the day away was a real treat. Thanks to Dave and the staff for entertaining us for a day!

Wednesday: Mercy Team

I'm sure this blog entry is totally out of order, but what can I say...I'm a busy girl these days! So here's an update on our wearabouts for Wednesday. Everyone on the mercy team went to Mahattai, which is a low-income area near the church, and worked on a few different projects. Some of us (mostly Chai, Mote, and Jay) worked on removing the old concrete from the Sala (a meeting house the mercy team uses in Mahattai); others helped to repair a roof, and some of the girls and I went to a lady’s house and helped her move a big pile of dirt. Talk about hard work! You all would have been proud of us girls hoeing and shoveling and rock-smashing! After working all afternoon, we had a delicious supper of fried chicken, sticky rice, soup, and “Thai Cucumber” aka cantaloupe. Then we had a prayer meeting in the Sala with some of the kids from the area. It was a great experience hearing prayers in Thai and English being prayed at the same time. When we were done with the meeting, we went over to the church for the “coffeehouse” event where we handed out trophies to the winning soccer teams from the tournament we sponsored the other day. The YWAM (youth with a mission) worship team played music, and we had a great time learning Thai dances, singing and praying together. We then hopped on a song taew, like usual, and went straight to bed at our apartments after the long day of work.

Thursday Day Out Group 1

Today was our day away from work. We all split into groups and got to see different places in Bangkok. Group 1 was basically every teen except for Jay. We started out by taking a two hour long bus ride to downtown Bangkok. We went to a large Buddhist temple were we saw the ceremony that a buddhist goes through when worshipping Buddha. We also got to see the Reclining Buddha. It was around 46 meters long and 15 meters high. We then went to lunch at the Siam Center and we were then allowed to walk around the mall and shop with friends. We took the Sky Train part of the way back and then took a bus the rest of the way back. When we got back to the church we had a pizza party and walked around the night market.

Wednesday, June 23: Campus

We started our day off with group devotions at our hotel. Then we had a half an hour of free time before we needed to leave for New Community Fellowship Church on the song taew. We had devotions with Dave. After devotions Tdong gave her testimony. Then Sarah Adams and Krystle talked about the English ministry here in Thailand. They teach English a couple nights a week to try to witness to people. They aren’t allowed to tell them about Jesus straight up, but they can include little things from the Bible if it applies to their lessons. Krystle and Sarah are very worried that no one will come and take over for them. If no one comes and takes over the English ministry, it will be temporarily shut down until they can find someone to start it up again. We then went to the market for lunch. We came back to the church and did random little jobs. Some people got ready for the English fair and others helped pack of Thai purses being sent off to the U.S. Then we split up.

The Campus team helped decorate for the coffee house we were going to be having later that night. Some of us went over to Campus and played badminton and basketball to make relationships with some of the university students. Then it was time for the coffee house. Tonight at the coffee house we were going to be handing out the trophies from the soccer tournament. We were hoping a lot of the soccer players would show up, but not many did. We had a band from Ywam come and play for us. We had fun dancing and singing with the Thai people. Then we road the song taew back to our apartments and went to bed.

Sorry...Again

To all our avid blog followers,
I apologize for the huge lag time in getting updates on the blog. I was able to get internet access at our apartments, and then lost it again...don't know why. Our time at the church is extremely limited and getting students to write their blog entries and get them onto the blog while also doing everything else that needs to be done on and off the few computers here is nearly impossible.
We continue to have very good days here. Campus team has had opportunities to get to know students on campus. The Mercy team began with a list of things we needed to get done before we left, and the list seems to grow faster than we can get things done. But we are all seeing God bless our work tremendously.
Today was our day off. We spent it sight seeing and looking a lot like the goofy tourists that we are!
Please continue to keep us in your prayers. We have been blessed tremendously by dry days in the midst of the rainy season. We've had almost no one even begin to feel sick. God has used our work in very powerful ways and for that we are very thankful.
Pray for the MTW Thailand team as well. Having us here is probably more work for them than it is for us to come. Dave has been working non-stop to be an amazing host and leader. And all of his Thai and American staff have been doing the same. Please praise God for each of them.
Pray for the people of Thailand as well. We visited the Wat Po today. The Wat Po is a Buddhist temple with a massive statue of Buddha lying on his side. Outside the temple were rows and rows and rows of school children lined up to get inside the temple and learn how they could do good works, drop coins in buckets, bow before a statue, or become monks to get to Nirvana sooner... all the while, being led to their eternal destruction. I couldn't get that picture out of my head. It is only by God's incredible grace that the children sitting in front of a pagan temple are not our own. Praise God. Let's just pray that God's grace will also save the children who were sitting there today.
Thanks again for your patience.
Blessings,
Ben

Tuesday-Campus

We started the day off by getting and eating breakfast and then we did devotions. Then we rode on the song teaw to the church and then Dave told us what we were going to be doing today. And then they Noun gave her testimony and Noun made some purses and people were buying them untill 2pm. And then campus ministry went to the campus and talk to the students and then we played a game and we went and played badminton were Matt and Charin beat Jay and Ricky. We played badminton till about 5pm then we went back to the room and showered and then we went to Ywam and they did a small group type of bible class. And then we started singing and then it started raining and Matt felt the presence of his dad and he realized how powerfull god really is. And we came back to the room and then we did debrief.

Monday-Mercy [:

Dave started our day off by bringing us french toast and orange juice for breakfast. We all rode on the song teaw to the ministry building where Yu shared her testimony and then she taught us a few thai phrases. Then the Mercy team piled in the back of Dave’s pickup, Katie, Jess, Liz, and I sat across the open tailgate. We had the Mercy team split into 2 groups; one group took out rocks from the dirt and built a new post, while the other group painted the sala. The outside was repainted brown and Jessica and I painted a mural on one of the inside walls. The kids came back from school and all wanted to help so they painted around the windows outside. We joined our mercy group back together and had a quick supper of sticky rice, chicken, watermelon, and nga (thai fruit). We then quickly transitioned to VBS with 4 stations: God made you, God loves you, God forgives you, and God saves you, with crafts to go along. Some of our mercy team had a chance to watch the soccer tournament to around midnight.

Happy Father's Day!

Today was church. The worship service here is a little different than that of our own. There were about 100 people packed into the small first floor of the center. We sang Thai songs (including Come Thou Fount and I Know Not Why God’s Wondrous Grace). We prayed together in Thai and in English. We also recited litanies. These litanies were on the screen in Thai, no English. Underneath the Thai writing, though, there were the English equivalents. For example: Ong-Nam-Ying-Yai-Seren-…Don’t ask what that means though. Pat preached a sermon on Nehemiah 8-9. It was really cool to see the passion with which they worshiped. After church Ben led an adult Sunday school and we shared photos of our fundraisers. Also, Taylor and Lee shared their testimonies with the people. After church we began setting up for a “block party” to happen later in the church. They invited their neighbors to come for an evening of food, music, and games. We set up a bunch of carnival games for the kids and food outside for adults. It was a lot of fun to hang out with the kids and talk, or try to talk, with the adults. If you get a chance, check out some of the pictures on the site, they’ll help to explain to you exactly what happened today. Happy Fathers Day!

Monday-Campus Team

Monday- Hello all, Monday started out in a great way, Dave brought us french toast for breakfast! It was a welcome change from cereal every morning, though I must admit I'm a bit of a cereal-addict. After french toast and devotions led by Ben we rode the song-taew. This ride on the song-taew was something special, we managed to fit our ENTIRE group plus 4 Thai people on one song-taew. That's a grand total of 27 people plus driver on one vehicle. After arriving at church, Yu, a memeber of the MTW team here, gave her testimony. Yu then led us all in a crash course of the Thai language. Some are doing better than others at learning the language, but were all starting to at least know some basic phrases and things like that. Then, we all went to the market for lunch and of course some delicious smoothies. (My favorite flavor is strawberry pineapple, I have it every time!) After lunch, we started preparing for the soccer tournament which would be our activity for the rest of the day. After waiting for the Thai players to arrive, we rode to the soccer complex. The soccer complex is an unbelievable place, it has 4 fields and is roofed. It is an amazing place and a great place to watch soccer. The church here had two soccer teams for the tournament, the A and the B team, of course the Americans were on the B team. The Thai people really are amazing at soccer and they made most of us look silly, but it was fun to watch. The church A team took 2nd to the police team, but the main point of the tournament is to build relationships and hopefully connect the players to members of the MTW team so that they will eventually be brought into the church. It was definitely a productive time of conversations and great soccer. After the tournament was over, (it went from 4p.m.-12 a.m.) we all rode back to the BFL and got a good nights sleep.
Hope your all doing well!

Saturday-
Day two of our trip and no sleeping in for us! We again rode the songtaew to the the church and had devos with the team and sang songs led by Brett and Zack. We all went to Futsaholic and split up into groups with the children and played games like the banana olympics and some water games. By now we have all formed relationships with most of the kids and it is fun to see them run up and wave and want to sit on your lap! We took them to a water park called Leo Land, we were each assigned a child to look after. Those kids had a lot of energy and it was hard to keep up! Leo Land was a huge water park on top of a 7 story mall. It took us a lot of esculators to get all the way to the top. After the water park we took the kids back to the church/office for some supper and played around with them for a bit. When they all left we set up chairs for Sunday's church service and then got in groups and headed to the night market. The night market is a CHEAP place which open only on weekend nights! It has everything from fresh produce to tattoos; sorry Ben was the only one that got one. The girls had a fun time looking at the clothes, shoes, and accesories and the boys liked the soccer jersey's. You guys should be proud of Jess and I (the picky ones) who tried the "butt fruit" which is actually called sala. They taste sour and have a texture like an apple. We then all met up at the church/office and got on another songtaew and headed back to the apartments to debrief and admire Ben's new tattoo!

Friday - from Mercy Team

Friday - from Mercy Team
On Friday we rode on a songtaew which means two rows. It's a truck with two benches on the back and poles on the ceiling for the people in the middle to hold onto. We rode the songthaew to the church which is the office and met some of the staff such as Lang, Pawn, Piewks, Yu, Jane, Krystal, and Pat. Dave and Sarah led us on tours. Dave took the Mercy team to see the university, the huge market, and the houses at Mahathai. Mahathai is the place were we will be doing many projects at like rebuilding roofs and cleaning up because it is a very poor neighborhood of the city. When we went to Mahathai, we rode in the back of Dave's truck. The houses there were in bad shape but the kids were so adorable and Dave knew everyone there by name. We ate our lunchs at the market. For lunch Dave ordered some different plates for us to eat. They were suprisingly very good! (Which is good for me because I am very picky :) ) When we finished we returned back to the office/church and split into our Mercy and Campus groups to start preparing for the weekend activities. After that the Mercy team left for "Futsaholic", which is 3 soccer fields on artificial grass. The fields are also screened all around so the balls and such can't go out. At the field, we met the kids from the Mahathai neighborhood. We played many activities and games with them. While we were there playing games, some of the kids would try to tell us something but we didn't understand them so we just said, "okay" or we asked someone who knew thai. After a long day of running around, yelling, and sweating in the heat we left to go back to the church/office. When we got back from the soccer field, the church/office was set up as a coffee shop which is one of the ministries here. There were many people there. We were tired and it was 10, when the coffee shop was done. We rode a songtaew back to our apartments and went to bed right away.

First Day for the campus teem

Our first day we started out with a lot of intro. We started out with everyone with devotions, then we went and heard the Mission of MTW and prayed together. After that, Sarah gave us a tour of the surrounding area; especially the campus we would be ministering to. It is a freshman college for 100,000 students, though most do not live on campus and many do not even attend classes. I got to ask a student about Kobe, but he responded with ... nothing. We then went and ate at the market as a team. After that, we prepared for the Coffee House we were having at the church at seven. This Coffee House was an event in which other people here had already done a lot of work to invite students from the campus to just come hang out from the Church. Many people came and we had a great time trying to talk to each other. We sang thai songs, played some games, and did some dances. Please pray that these students' hearts would be melted and that they would keep on coming to church events and would come to church on Sundays.
Thanks
Lee Veldkamp

Sorry

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick note to say sorry for the delay in getting posts on here. I'm having trouble finding internet access. Friday went great, but I'm falling asleep at the keyboard so I'll wait to give you more details.

Flying High

Wednesday was a very long day! But maybe that's because it was actually two days...or was it three? It's hard to know any more. Our day really began on Tuesday evening when our entire team spent about 2 hours getting all our paperwork in order, packing our bags with clothes and supplies, and getting one last time for extended prayer.

Brignt and early, on Monday morning we assembled at church to load up into 5 vehicles and drive down to O'hare to catch our flight. As we said our last goodbyes, I was amazed at the strength of parents who, through tears, allowed their precious children to fly half way around the world, to a place they've never seen, to help people they've never met. I'm not sure I'm ready to do that with my kids. Maybe someday I'll have that difficult privelge.

We made it to Chicago with plenty of time to spare. After all the work we put into paperwork, our time getting through check-in and security was so simple, we barely needed any of it. But better over prepared than in trouble! For me, one of the best parts of the day was watching and listening to the students as our massive 747 pulled up to the gate and crews began to prepare it for our flight. For many, this was their first trip out of the country. For two, this was their first plane ride...ever! As we sat down in our seats, we discovered that every seat had a TV screen built into the back of the headrest in front of us. There were remote controls built into the armrests that allowed us to watch movies, TV shows, listen to music, play video games, or, as we found out by accident...call the flight attendant to our seats. Those poor Korean ladies were kind enough to come and answer about four accidental calls...before we even pushed back from the gate.

Another fun part of the trip was flying a foreign airline. If any of you get a chance to fly Korean Airlines...take it! They were amazing. From the touch screen TVs in the seats, to the incredibly profeccional, patient, and courteous service, to the perfect landings, they were outstanding. One thing that became a discussion in our group was the Korean food option for one of our meals. When the flight attendant asked me if I wanted "bipbimbap", I had to ask her to repeat herself about three times. My hearing isn't great, but I didn't think I was hearing English! Finally she just said, "Do you want Korean or beef?" Being somewhat adventerous with food, I threw in my vote for "Korean". The food was actually called bipbimbap. It was a bowl of raw fish (as least Brett swears it was raw fish), bean sprouts, seaweed, and some veggies. The directions they gave us said to mix the steamed rice we were given into the bowl, squeeze some hot pepper paste from a tube into it, add some sesame oil, and mix away. It was actually quite good...depending on who you asked! I loved it. But I even enjoyed the "seaweed soup" that went with it. I think I was alone on that one.

Our flight took us directly north over (almost) Oostburg, the UP of Michigan, Canada, the arctic circle north of Alaska, Russia, China, and then South Korea. (We would have flown through North Korea, but we ended up doglegging over the Yellow Sea to avoid it. Probably wise these days!)

Incheon airport was an adventure as well. After figuring out a somewhat confusing transfer system, some of us enjoyed Korean noodles. Others found KFC and Burger King. There was a place in the airport run by something like a tourism board. They were letting non-Koreans make Korean fans and head bands. Some kids will be coming home with them.

Our flight to Bangkok took us over the Yellow Sea, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. Customs and baggage went without a hitch...praise the Lord! We met up with Dave, Sarah, and Niim who took us to our rooms at Baan Fa Luang. The rooms are great! You can check them out at www.baanfaluang.com.

Please join us in praising God for a long but amazing day. Travel couldn't have gone better and we're ready to begin our ministry bright and early Friday morning!

Blessings,

Ben

Commissioning Day

Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Sing to the Lord, praise his name; porclaim his salvation day after day.

Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

Psalm 96:1-3

It's official...we're commissioned. After two years of thinking and planning, and a year and a half of active fundraising, the time has finally come. On Sunday, June 13th, our team was commissioned by our church, First Oostburg Christian Reformed Church, to bring the gospel to Bangkok, Thailand.

While we've always known that there have been countless people supporting us in various ways, it was incredibly powerful to see just how many people came up to the front of church from their pews to lay hands on us and send us on our way. It seemed like there were more people standing with us than stayed in their seats. All of this was just an incredible testament to how our God works in his church to do things we could never do alone. He gives one gift to one person, and a completely different, yet complimentary gift to someone else. Some flip burgers at a fundraiser, some move tables, some organize work shift, some donate money, some talk to friends and get the word out, some write Lakeshore Weekly ads, some drive vans, some decorate their homes, some decorate cookies...and most importantly...lots and lots of people pray.

At our commissioning service, I had the joy of preaching from Psalm 96. What I love about this Psalm is the picture it gives of an all-powerful, all loving King, coming to make everything right again: to take away sin and pain and death. And we have the privelige of being hearlds for this incredible King. We declare to the nations that he is coming. May our King us us to help the people of Thailand know and love our incredible King, Jesus Christ!

Thank you to all who ahve supported us as we prepared. We praise God for you and all you have meant to us.

I thank my God every time I remember you.

In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy

because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

Philippians 1:3-5
