December Update 2023

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Greeting everyone in the name of Jesus!  WOW another year has slipped by already. Time flies when you are having fun! This year we will celebrate Christmas with our COTR family and our Khon Kaen family. We are excited to be able to celebrate both places this year. Christmas is always a great time of fellowship and fun. We would like to thank all of you who supported us and prayed for us last year and want you all to know we appreciate everyone of you and pray for you all the time. We pray that you will all have a great Christmas and a wonderful year 2024. May God bless you all with prosperity and blessings over and above. We love you all!

Last month we ministered first at COTR Buriram. We had a great time in the Lord and God blessed us all. Annie taught pre service and I preached the main service. God is great!

We also ministered at Lamp of Khon Kaen church the last weekend of the month. We had a great time ministering there as well.  Annie taught and I preached then we broke bread together with a meal after the service. Praise God!

COTR Buriram Vision

The church has reevaluated and resized the vision of the church they are believing to build by next year. They already have the land to build on and their goal to have it built and up an running by next year. The new estimate for the total price of the building has been estimated to be around $25,000 USD.  So this is a very reachable goal for next year and every one is excited and already started donating towards the goal.  If anyone would like to help with a donation or the whole amount would be nice (haha) please let me know.

 

 Special prayer request for everyone. It’s been 5 years this year since we have last visited America and next year we would like to make a visit for about 6 months as a furlough time, but for this to happen we would have to find a place to rent for 6 months.  It could be located either by Granbury where our daughter lives or could be in the Beaumont/Nederland area, either would be fine for us.  So if anyone knows of a place we could rent for a reasonable price, please let us know.

Okay, well this is our last update for this year so once again Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone. May God bless you and your family’s during this special time.

We love you all!

Ralph and Annie

November Update 2023

 

                               Greetings in the Name of Jesus!

We pray all of you are being blessed and doing well. Annie and I are doing great and blessed. Wow, this year is almost over already and we are almost upon the holiday season already. So, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and we pray you will have a great time of fellowship with your family and lots of turkey. Lol

We had the privilege to minister at Lamp of Khon Kaen Church and everything went great. God blessed us and the service.  Annie taught and I preached and God ministered to the people. Amen?

We also were able to minister at COTR Church in Buriram and had a great time with our family there. Once again, Annie taught before the service and I preached. God is good!

Last year we were able to visit an orphanage at Ohm phang up in the mountains and we were able to bless them with a nice offering from many sources.  The pastor over the orphanage decided to use the offering to build a new dormitory for the girls that live there.  Today it is almost finished with what we provided and offerings from the members of the local church. Thank God for all who gave and now they have a wonderful new dormitory for the girls.what a great blessing!  We are praying about making another trip next year and I will let everyone know in case you would like to sow a seed in good soil. Amen?

Okay, thanks to everyone for your support and prayers, we sure need them and appreciate it. Please continue to pray for our provision, health and protection. God bless everyone abundantly in all you do.

We love y’all!

Ralph and Annie

October Update 2023

 

                     Greetings everyone in the Name of Jesus!

We pray everyone is being blessed and doing well.  Annie and I are doing good and blessed as always. We are starting to pray again about making a trip to America next year starting sometime around March or April for about 3 months.  So we are asking everyone to come into agreement with us for a car and a place to stay. If anyone knows of a car we can use for approximately 3 months and a house or apartment we can use or rent for 3 months as well, please let me know as soon as you can.  Thanks in advance for all your prayers.

We had a great time in the Lord at COTR Buriram last month again.  Annie taught and I preached the main message. Afterwards they surprised me with a belated birthday celebration. Praise God!

Then at the Lamp of Khon Kaen Church, we also had a wonderful time ministering to our family there. Annie taught and I preached and once again they surprised me with a birthday cake afterwards. Thank you Jesus!  

We have great news this month, we had another small church in Buriram province but a different district join our organization.  Pastor Bob ordained the pastor and received the church into COTR, praise God, we may be small but we are growing. Please pray for the foundation there because there are several other churches in the area interested in joining COTR as well. God is good and God’s will be done. Amen?

Thanks to everyone for your support and prayers!  We pray that God will bless you all over and above all your needs and desires.  Please continue to pray for us always for good health, provision and protection!  

God bless you all and we love ya’ll!

Ralph and Annie
