Drug Prevention Forum Feb 2010

Gary presented the " 360 Drug Forum" in Chiang Mai in Feb. 2010. Leaders from
CBN, Operation Blessing, Compassion International, Christian Drug Rehab Centers, and others attended.

The leaders agreed with Gary that Christians could lead the way in Thailand to address the serious drug problems. Another Forum is scheduled.

Gary presented the "thinkSMALL" drug prevention materials for children, including an
'edutainment' show, comics, wristbands and drug prevention curriculum for schools.

Everyone at the Forum is excited about being part of the solution!

6500 kids and counting!

Since we started KidsQuest Thailand almost 2 years ago, over 6500 children

Ruth passed on to be with the Lord on Dec. 13, 2009.  An amazing Christian woman, full of
