This past month in Thailand has been both busy and rewarding. I’ve started my Thai lessons and am now learning to read and write. Here’s how my name looks in Thai: ไทเลอร์.Over the past month, I’ve also been spending time with the congregation and getting more community involvement. For Christmas, we hosted a big event at the church that welcomed many people from the area. The celebration featured delicious food, a Christmas service, plays, and gift giveaways. It was such a blessing to see everyone come together.


Although I wasn’t part of it, a small group from the church went caroling in the community—a tradition I didn’t expect to see here in Thailand. While Thailand is predominantly Buddhist, Christmas is still celebrated as part of the culture. From what I understandThailand has a syncretic culture, blending traditions and influences. Considering that tourism plays a major role in the economy, it’s not surprising that Christmas is celebrated, even in a more secular way.


Lastly, I’ve connected with a Thai national who is eager to help with the ESL program when it launches. We’ve been friends for over a year and understand English. I’m excited to share her story with everyone next month!
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas (I'm late sorry) and a Happy New Year!
