Arrived in Thailand!
The Thailand team arrived in Bangkok safe and sound. After a full day of travel we were greeted by the House of Blessing staff who loaded our many bags up and drove us to the House of Blessing (HOB). When we were settled in, we began to catch a glimpse of the unique ways God […]
