Dances in a Wedding Celebration

After one and half month of having a vacation in the Philippines, we are glad to be back here in Thailand!

Have i mentioned that I, Karisse  & Joy have moved in a new place? This is about 4 hour-drive from Hatyai.

With our new surroundings, new school, new students & co-workers, new house and new challenges & experiences in life, in Him we give Praise and in Him we put our Trust!

Though our place is quite far from our church now, i am thankful that we could still manage to be there once in a while. And last Friday, after having our last period in school, Joy, Karisse and I took a van going to Hatyai because the Eksilah team was invited to dance in a wedding celebration of Nutch & K.They are members of the church and we have seen their relationship growing as time pass by. We are happy and we do celebrate with them as they take another step to this next level in their lives as one.

By the way, this is my first time to witness a wedding celebration here in Thailand. I am amazed how extravagant they celebrate this occasion compared to ours in the Philippines.

We supposed to dance in the ceremony which was held in the church but since that was Friday and we are working teachers, we sadly declined the invitation. But, thankfully they had 3 celebrations.  First in the church til lunch then at the groom's house for their dinner and then finally, whole day of Saturday was in the Bride's house! wowww..just wow! can't imagine how much the groom spent for this... coz i heard, it was the groom who spent..mhh not sure though.. :))) so much for that...

So we had accepted the invitation to dance in the Bride's house since we didn't have class during Saturdays.

Here are the videos of our two dances! :))) Had Practice on this last Friday night and for a short time in Saturday morning then presented these in the afternoon! :D i wanna make excuses again for our mistakes..hahahah... :) but yah, am glad we did these two dances in spite of our very limited time in making the steps and memorizing them... :) Glory to God!

I could sing of Your love forever in Thai lyrics

and this...

Happy Day by the Jesus Culture but this is in Thai Version..

So much fun! yeh we did have fun and very grateful for the opportunity in sharing the gospel in many people through these songs because for sure people understood the message since it was in Thai. Praise God!
