When Believers Meet

It is a wonderful thing when two new believers meet each other and share a love for God's Word and all the wonderful stories in it. That is what happened today when Nit (from the Deen Khao group) met Lek (from the nearby village of Bangkan). They hit it off. In addition, we have found at least 3 others in this village who are believing and want to start a group. Please be praying that the Lord will establish his church in this village. Pray for the team of Thai seminary students as they share their testimonies and the gospel with the people in this area.

Thai Student Team

This past week has been a lot of fun as a team of 9 Thai seminary students have been helping us with sharing the gospel, children's activities, evangelistic meetings, church group meetings, leading worship, etc. It has been really busy and it is not over yet. They will be with us for a total of 21 days.

Please keep them and us in your prayers as we share Christ with the people of southern Thailand. Pray for the team this week as we work with other local believers to encourage them and to help them share their faith also.

God is Working when you are Praying!

What an amazing day! We have a team of 8 Thai seminary students with us from Bangkok. They will be working alongside us until the end of the month. This morning, we spent time praying together and studied in Luke where Jesus sent out his disciples to proclaim the good news of the Kingdom. Then, we divided into four different teams to share. Today we met several people who were very responsive! In addition, we found several possible places to start seeker groups. We also talked with two ladies who used to attend one of our groups and both of them expressed strong faith in the Lord. We praise God because it looks like we may be able to start a group there again. If you have been praying for us... THANK YOU!

A Fruitful Day

Yesterday, I went out with my fellow missionary and mentor, Ross M. It was a very fruitful day. Not only did we meet a young man who was very interested in the gospel and learning more about our faith, but people kept giving us fruit. At the first home, we received a huge branch full of green bananas. It was so heavy, it took the two of us to carry it to the truck. Then later, we received a bag full of tamarinds and another bag with m'pahng (That's the Thai name. I have no idea what they would be called in English.) So we praise God full a fruitful day!
