Immigration Prison

We went to the prison with the Thai church.  Khun Darunee, the Thai Christian leader, took us to the prison.  Men & women stay there up to 4 months waiting to be repatriated to their home country when they have overstayed their visa, or done petty crimes.  People from Indonesia, Viet Nam, Philippines, & Thailand were in the prison.  These people were brought into the basement where a program using mixed media told the story from creation through Jesus Christ.  The story was translated into all the above languages.  Christian songs were sung.  Then the people were segregated by nationality and we got to talk to the 3 Thai inmates.  Before leaving, the Christians distributed orange juice, apples, & snacks to each inmate.  The inmates saw and heard the Gospel.
