This is the closing program of the little school at ISOT (Achiever's International Elementary School). They used the "Under Construction" program generously donated by friends in Somerset, Ky. and it was a hit with everyone.
This is Yajak and Jyoti Tamang. Shortly after they arrived at ISOT four years ago, doctors discovered a large tumor in Yajak's leg. He was told that the tumor was malignant and that his leg would have to be amputated. But God graciously intervened and the tumor was successfuly removed and his leg was saved. Watching Yajak WALK across the stage to get his diploma was a very sweet moment. This photo was taken during the banquet for graduates and their families.
A special part of the banquet was a foot-washing ceremony in which the discipleship group leaders washed the feet of their graduating members. James is washing the feet of Kap from Myanmar. Last night we had dinner at Kap's house -- he cooked goat stew for us!
This is a shot of the graduation itself -- we had 50 graduates this year, and not all of them can be seen in this shot. Just wanted you to see our speaker, center of the front row. This is Steve Douglas, the president of Campus Crusade for Christ.
This was part of the 25th anniversary program, which we celebrated later on the same day. It was colorful, inspiring, challenging, and encouraging! Days like this make us realize how privileged we are to work at ISOT-Asia, equipping leaders for the Asian Harvest. Thanks for making it possible for us to be here. Pray that God will give us strength and wisdom to carry on with this wonderful job we have!
