House of Grace

On Thursday, Daniel had the priviledge to go with Rev. Jörgen Algesund to an orphanage. Rev. Jörgen is a Swedish missionary who has been serving in this country in almost 50 years. Many of the Full Gospel pastors know him and regard him high as he has been a pioneer in theological training in Thailand. We are always encouraged to meet him and his wife Inger.

The orphanage we visited was a few hours drive from here. When we got there I was really moved in my heart for these children's situation. House of Grace is an orphanage for AIDS-affected children whose parents has died of this terrible disease and who have no one to take care of them. 30 girls and 27 boys. A 2-year-old boy had just arrived there, as old as our son Jonathan but already with this death sentence over his life.

Thank you Jesus for House of Grace and pastor Kitisak and his wife, who give their lives for these AIDS-affected children and widows. Read more at their website: www.houseofgracethailand.com
