December Update 2021

 


MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!  We pray all of you will have a very blessed and wonderful time this year with your family and friends.  May God bless you over and above all your needs in Year 2022!  

We are doing good here in Thailand, the Covid situation is getting better every day.  Praise God we are able to do live services with Church on the Rock Buriram and will be doing Christmas service with Lamp of Khon Kaen church as well this month. It is also looking good for a celebration for our 50th anniversary next month too.  Please pray it will continue to get better. Amen?













We ministered at Church on the Rock Buriram the first weekend of this month. We had a great time and God blessed us with His presence. Annie taught and I preached the main service and God ministered to the people. It feels so good to be back to live services and being able to fellowship with our family there again.


Praise God, we were able to share with a group of Vietnamese young people via Zoom this week. We shared about marriage and how to look for the right mate for their lives.  It was truly a lot of fun and a blessing to us as well.

Please continue praying for us in every area. Pray for our health, provision and protection as always. I have a growth on the side of my nose and they took a specimen yesterday for testing.  I will get the results on the 30th of December and they will remove it according to the results. So pray the results come back normal and will be easily removed without any complications!  Amen?

Okay, thanks to everyone for your prayers and financial support, we appreciate everyone of you. Again, have a Wonderful Christmas and new year!  We love you all!

Ralph and Annie

November Update 2021

 

 
Greetings Everyone and Happy Thanksgiving!

It is hard to believe that Thanksgiving is already here and only a few weeks before Christmas. We pray everyone will have a great holiday season this year.  May God bless you all and protect you all!  












The first miracle is complete at Church On The Rock Buriram. It is truly a miracle because the temporary sanctuary, kitchen and children’s room was built during a time when finances are at a low for everyone.  The timing was right because they were not allowed to have live services, so Pastor Bob by faith started the building project. The old temporary building was torn down and the materials were used for the new building which helped keep the costs down. The finances came in step by step and was just enough all the way to the finish. Praise God because just as the province opened up, the building was complete and ready! God is good!


















The province of Buriram has opened up since the population is almost 100% vaccinated. And now live services are allowed again.  Praise God, because Annie and I were able to visit this last weekend and actually minister on Sunday morning in the new church building. What a blessing, it was the first time in 9 months that we were able to teach and preach in a live service.  Wow, it was such a blessing and we enjoyed ourselves so much.  God was with us and we have a great service.  








We also were able to spend a couple of days visiting and site seeing around the town. We have had so many milestones this year that we have not been able to celebrate but looks like now we can begin. Yeah!  I think we will make up for lost time and will celebrate the rest of this year and will continue next year when we have a big celebration coming with our 50 year anniversary in January.

We love y’all!

Ralph and Annie
