Grad Party at the Tang's




We had a fun time celebrating and encouraging ZOE's graduating class of '52 at a party at our home last Sunday. We played games, had lunch, snacks, a ping pong tournament and a time to encourage one another. For two years these 18 students were poured into with Bible teachings, ministry training, business classes, outreaches etc... They are truly equipped to minister wherever God calls them to next. We will miss them dearly, but know that one of our goals of our Bible School is to train up Thai nationals to reach their own people. They will!!

thanks again for all your posts! will the ministry graduates get jobs at churches/para church organizations or get "regular" jobs/work as "tent-makers?"
Christ is Risen, Happy Easter!

Hi Kari,

All the students are doing different things. Many are not sure and are seeking God's direction. Of the 18 who graduated, 4 will be interning at ZOE for a year and 4 are coming on as staff. Of the others, one is getting married and will be working as a teacher at another children's home, three will be studying music/music ministry and one is being drafted into the army. They are all amazing! We're loooking forward to seeing where God leads the rest. No matter what they do, whether Christian ministry or not, they will be powerful witnesses for Jesus.

I love all the pictures and comments that go along with them! The graduation must have been awesome...the "strange/fun" tradition of watering everyone... well...fun and unusual! Thanks for keeping us updated. I know it takes time and effort. We appreciate you. Stay safe and dry!
Love,
