In the capital of Laos, only 10% of the graduating students will have opportunity to find a job in their field of study.  As such, those students that have influential parents, money, or position will be able to get these limited jobs, even if they are the worst student.  It is also sad to learn that in university entrance exams, the students that get the lowest scores are the ones, who are channeled into the education field, where this is little money!

Several TD students live in the capital city together and study during the day.  This has been a good situation for these eight, as they have the opportunity to encourage and assist one another.  Every night after class, they study the Word and finish different bits of assignments they receive.  It is exciting to see how God is blessing them and what they are learning.  They are more and more excited to follow in His ways. They are confident that with faith and His favor, they will be able to find the jobs, that He has for them.
