The team took Sunday off as a day of rest and reflection. We were able to spend some time in prayer for the people that we have already come into contact with and for those yet to be contacted. We then drove to Phrphutthabat (the little village that George and I lived in) and visited the temple there. This temple is know as the footprint of Buddha. People from all over Asia travel to this temple to worship idols. The footprint is actually just a big hole in the ground that is not anyone's footprint. There were many people in the temple worshipping, so many that we couldn't even get in the door. So we walked up 290 steps to the top of a hill that looked out over the city. We spent some time in prayer and sang some songs. It was a good day.
