Tevalit
Age: 15 From: Doi Tung (Art's village near the Burma border)

Tevalit comes from a very poor family with 4 brothers and sisters. His family is christian, but do not have a strong faith. Tevalit has not yet made a personal decision to follow Jesus Christ with his life, but he is interested in Jesus and has a good background in what the Bible says and who Jesus is. Even though he is from a poor family, he is a diligent student who is good at math. He passed a special exam that allows him to study at a good school if he desires.
He loves to practice guitar and sing Christian songs.
AhSong
Age: 17 from: Hooynamkhun village (1 hr from Chiang Rai city)
School: 2nd year student studying electricity at the technical college
Ahsong's family is christian and his brother is a pastor, but Ahsong is not close with his brother. Ahsong is very easy to talk to and is open and honest about what is on his mind. He listens well and responds to instruction well. He is a very good singer and guitar player, but often sings secular songs. Art is slowly teaching him how to worship God with his music so that he can encourage others. He is interested in learning more about God.
AhNoon
Age: 17 from: Hooynamkhun village (1 hr from Chiang Rai city)
School: 2nd year student studying electricity at the technical college
AhNoon is in the same class and from the same village as Ahsong. He is very shy and quiet with new people. He wants to learn the guitar and enjoys singing and studying the Bible with the group. His family is christian.
Aree
Age: 15 From: Ban Khaan village (a village with a very strong belief in spirits)
School: 1st year student studying to be a mechanic at the technical college
Aree decided himself that he wanted to come to stay with Art (they have known each other since Art was a dorm leader at his school). His family visited the house and agreed that he can study the Bible with Art. He is interested in the Bible and Christianity but has very little knowledge of what it is all about. Keep Aree in your prayers that his heart will stay open to learning about and from God.
