Dengue fever

A note from our Kings Kids Thailand leader......please read and pray!

Dear Family and friends
I am writing this notes to ask you to pray for us and especially for the kids in the slum.  Last few weeks a few of our staff has been sick and now some of them are still not doing well physically.
Beside ministry and minister to the children in the slum our team would take time during the week to go visit there parents and we had a great time connectting with them.   Last week during visiting the parents we received the bad news that some of the kids were sick,  two of them had pneumonia and the other three had dengue fever (The desease from mosquitoes).  A few days I have been going to the hospital to visit one of our 9 years old girl (Ae) ad dengue fever now she is back home also another name Boss as well.  Yesterday during the meeting I received a phone call from one of our YWAM staff said that a teenager girl that used to come to our program a while ago, has just pass away because of the dengue fever.  It was very shock for me to hear that. She was only 15 years old.  So please pray for her family and also for the kids in the slum community, especially for our staff as well as we are going to the slum for ministry 3-4 times a week.
This is rainy season so there are mosquitoes everywhere.  I am going to try to talk to the community leader to ask the goverment to come and spray the mosquitoes foggy spray !!.  This might prevent the dengue fever or malaria abit.  We are also thinking about buying mosquitoes nets and spray for the kids family but we dont have enough budget yet. (One musquito net would cost 200 Thai Bath). So if you would like to help out please let us know or any better idea how to help them.  Thank you so much for you prayers.
Love in Christ
