Most Tai Dam will celebrate their New Years in various ways and at various times depending on which country they live in! Vietnam Tai Dam will celebrate along with Chinese/Vietnamese New Year.  Those in Thailand and Laos will celebrate along with the Thai and Lao New Years.  In Thailand, this means around April 13 and so the Tai Dam will celebrate on April 6th with a huge gathering.  Tai Dam folks will be coming from all over Thailand and Laos for this festive time.  Different Tai Dam contests of skill are planned along with a lot of eating.  The Christians in the local village are also praying about what they will do to share God's love with the many Tai Dam guests.  

• Pray that God will bless the Tai Dam Christians in this village with wisdom, boldness, and joy in sharing God's love.

• Pray that hearts would be opened up to His love.

Please continue to intercede on behalf of the Teacher and his family!  I am sure depression and emotional ups and downs make it very hard to stay focused on His best will!  May God be merciful to them!
