Greetings frora the Land
of smiles . After
a
long year
of
fund
raising
we are
finally
here in
Thailand. We
had
a pleasant but
tiring journey.
A
total of hours of delays in our flights added
to
the problem
of our jet lag .
We are
adjusting well
to
the Thai
culture.
The
hardest adjustment
to make is to the Thai food.
We
are staying with Mary Parkhurst,
librarian
at CBI,
and she eats
a
lot of
American food
so
this is
making the adjustment easier.
Tracy
and
Dawn are loving Thailand. They are so happy with their
new
friends and school. They seem to
be
adapting with no
problems,
At
their school, in addition to the
regular
subjects, the girls
also study
the Thai
language
two
days
a week.
/ Rosemary and I began our language study on Jan.
24.
It is
a
slow
tedious process trying to learn
a
new language,
but it is
very
exciting
to go out in the
town and the
market
places
and try to
converse with
the people in
their native tongue. We
will continue
to study
language 6-8
hours
a
day
for at
least
the
first six
months
The current
academic dean,
Walt Prevost,
is
leaving CBI after our
graduation on
April
2. During
my
first staff meeting on Jan. 18
Peter Sutjaibun, president of CBI,
asked me if I would
take over
the position of academic dean. So
from now until
Walt leaves,
I
will
be working closely with him
to
be able
to
make
a
smooth
transition into this
work.
I will assume full duties
of
academic
deam in addition to
my
teaching responsibilities with the next
school term
beginning
in June. Please pray for
me
in this new
work
We are currently looking for housing, A nice three-bedroom house
is
empty
close to CBI and right next door to where we
are
now
staying. We
are
in
the
process
of
bartering
for a price
with
the owner. However, he wants
a
large deposit of $500-600 so I
don't
know if we can afford that. Pray that God will provide
our
need and find
suitable
housing for us.

A special
THANK
YOU
goes to all who
have helped us
this
year.
Many
individuals'
names are
not listed
but have given through
their
respective churches. Many thanks
to the great people at our
home
church
of Parkway in
Middletown, Ohio who through
their
love rand
concern
purchased
our
plane
tickets with love offerings
and
special
gifts.
To those we know and those we do not know, a sincere
thank
you.
Detailed financial reports for 1982 are
available upon
request
from our forwarding
agent.
If in the turmoil
of
moving we
have
ac
cidentally omitted anyone, we apologize and ask your forgiveness.
It
was not intentional.
Expenses are
running
more than
we originally
thought due
to
increases
in housing costs
and
language study.

is a list of
our needs:

area of the world.
After
6 months on the

still
lo oms large
in his mind. H o weve r, t o do

just stud y and hard work.
