October Update 2020

 
 

                Greetings everyone in the name of Jesus!

We pray everyone is staying safe and God is blessing you all! 

 

On the 15th October we celebrated over 31 years of ministry and 24 years here in Thailand.  God is good!  We have had our ups and downs throughout the years but all in all it has been worth every minute of it. We have been through hurts and pains, good times and bad times, but here we are still serving the Lord!  We thank God, He has sustained us, provided for us and kept us.  We thank God for all of our supporters and prayer warriors that have enabled us to be here. We are looking forward to see what God does in this 25th year coming up.  Amen?

 















We had the privilege of ministering and helping with the Water Baptism at Chumphae Church last month.  I have always loved baptizing people , it is such a joy to see people choosing to follow Jesus and making that commitment.








We had another opportunity to minister at Lamp of Khon Kaen Church and I preached this time.  It was a great service and God moved among us and touched many people.  Afterward we took out our spiritual children and our spiritual grandchildren who were just married about a couple of months ago.








Then we ministered in Church on the Rock Buriram.  Annie taught and I preached the main service and God truly blessed us.









Then in the afternoon we were able to dedicate the newly purchased land to the Lord. God has blessed Church on the Rock Buriram and Saints on the Rock foundation with the ability and resources to be able to purchase one metric acre of land!  Praise God!  This is a great milestone for the church and the foundation because now plans can be made for building a church and a Nursery in the future.  I praise God for all He is doing through this small church and foundation. Also, good news from Saints on the Rock Foundation too, some of the kids learning English have received Jesus in their heart and are now learning the Bible too!  Praise God! If anyone would like to adopt a church or a project to help them fulfill the dream and vision God has put in their heart please let me know.  They can use all the help they can get. Amen?

Please pray for Thailand as well.  There are beginning to be protests against the government and they are starting to get larger every week.  They are protesting for democracy to be established and many other things.  The present government isn’t going along with the protests and are using physical attacks to disperse the masses.  The protestors are mostly young people and students.  Please pray for peace.

Okay thanks to everyone for your prayers and support! We love and appreciate all of you.  Please keep Annie in your prayers this week.  We just did a mammogram, ultrasound and Xrays  last week and will be doing a bone scan next Tuesday the 20th of October.  Please pray that we receive a good report all around.  Thanks again in advance!

We love y’all!
 
Ralph and Annie
