A few years ago, the Seventh day
Adventist school in Korat, Thailand,
-
faced a challenge.
-
With an increasing number of students,
-
their small outdated facility
was bursting at the seams.
-
Classrooms were overcrowded,
-
and the need for a new building
was undeniable.
-
Despite needing an update,
the school still had a positive impact.
-
I like the whole school,
everything, everything we do here.
-
This school teaches the Bible,
and I like the Bible.
-
But in their hearts,
the staff and students
-
held on to hope for an improved facility.
-
It was through the 13th Sabbath Offering
-
that the school received
the support it desperately needed.
-
With the funds,
they built a brand-new facility.
-
Spacious classrooms, modern equipment,
-
and outdoor space now provide a safe
and nurturing environment for students.
-
It's more than just a building.
-
They are growing not only academically,
-
but also spiritually.
-
I was introduced to the Bible
when I came to this school.
-
I think that it's an amazing text
that people should know about more.
-
I think the Bible
is really nice to learn about
-
because I love all the Bible stories
-
and the parables Jesus taught
all the disciples and everyone around him.
-
Many of the students can't imagine
attending any other school.
-
I like this school;
I will never move away.
-
I will never go to another school.
-
I think the feeling that
everyone here is your family.
-
Because I feel like in this school,
even the teachers,
-
the people working in the office,
-
everyone seems like it's your family
and you can really,
-
talk to them about your worries and stuff,
like they are really close with you.
-
I do like the community
that this place has.
-
It's very nice and friendly.
-
This school has impacted entire families.
-
Parents trust their children
with the teachers and staff.
-
I chose this school
because Penny is my heart.
-
I want the best for my heart.
-
This school provides education,
provides safety,
-
and provides a holistic approach.
-
Today, the Seventh-day
Adventist School in Korat
-
is more than just a place of learning.
-
It's a community.
-
Through love, guidance, and faith,
-
this school is reaching hearts
both young and old.
-
The blessing of the 13th Sabbath
Offering didn't just build walls.
-
It built bridges of faith and connection,
-
bringing students closer to God and
creating opportunities for the future.
-
Thank you so much everyone for
your contribution for our school.
-
It's make the difference when we share.
-
To those who gave to the thirteenth
Sabbath offering, we want you to know
-
your generosity has
made an eternal impact.
-
You haven't only helped build a
school, you have transformed lives,
-
opened doors of opportunity,
-
and planted seeds of faith
that will grow for generations.
-
Because of you, students
in Courant are thriving,
-
and families are being
touched by God's love.
-
From the bottom of our hearts, Thank
you for being part of this mission.
