On December 2, 20 of our congregation members will be off to Thailand.
We will be visiting and working at Mercy International orphanages in Khon kaen and Petchabun.
The purpose of this site is to keep everyone back home in Australia up to date with our experiences
and importantly, informed of specific prayer points requested.
Our itinerary is as follows, however the group will be lead by the spirit and the needs of the orphanges which means
the itinerary could change at short notice. Khon Kaen is a university city and we are told that internet cafes are quite
common so maintaining the site regularly (if not daily) should not be a problem.
