Hospitality Defined
What is the saying about fish and visitors? That they both stink after three days? Somehow Mark and Melinda missed out on that message — try hosting a family of five for nearly three weeks! We had the extreme pleasure and privilege of being welcomed into their Chiang Mai home, really their LIVES, for most of March and into April, including two birthdays AND Easter. This dear family opened their doors, their table, their school, their church, their friends, their car, their hearts to us, and we are so grateful. And on top of all that, they managed to laugh when we broke their hotpot. And a bowl. And a plate. And probably something else that I can’t remember.
From laughter to laundry, Mark, Melinda, Jeff, Sarah, and Anna blessed us in countless ways. They are new extended family to us, and an outstanding example of generosity and openness that we hope to follow. Thanks, y’all!
Sooooo fun! Love to you ALL!
Yes, the Carlson’s are a wonderful family! And I am so glad that they introduced us to each other :)
Loved every minute…. the feeling is mutual. You brought such fun and laughter to our home as we shared life together. Fellowship at its best! I am still thanking God for our sweet times together. Love you Wildmans!
