August Update 2018

 
                  Greetings everyone in the Name of Jesus!

Well, it’s time for another update.  We are continuing each month ministering in our churches by teaching, preaching and making disciples!  We praise God for the privilege of going to these churches every month and seeing the steady growth.  Amen?

 






 


We ended the month of July by ministering at Chum Phae Church.  We enjoy going here each month now as it is a new church for us.  Annie teaches in the early morning and then I preach in the main service. We had a good service and everyone was blessed. 

 









 
Next, we ended the month of July at Lamp of Khon Kaen Church.  I taught the kids in the morning and then Annie preached in the main service.  We had a wonderful service, during the altar call we prayed for everyone and God touched many.

The month of August has been a busy month because we ministered at Thai Buriram Church two weekends.  But it is a pleasure to be busy for Jesus.

 




 


The first weekend Pastor Bob was in Germany so we covered for him.  Had a great time preaching and teaching.

 













 
The second weekend at Thai Buriram Church was a special celebration for the 3 year anniversary and also it was Mother’s Day. We had a great time in the Lord and honored all of the mothers as well.

Please pray for a team coming from Freedom Fellowship Church, Waxahachie,Texas next month.  They will be ministering in all our churches and doing outreach as well September 12-16th. There will be 8 people in the team coming. Pray for their protection as they travel and pray they are a blessing and be blessed while they are here. Also pray that all of their needs for this trip will be provided as well.

Please keep Annie and I in your prayers.  Our health is doing pretty good for a couple of old people.  Haha  But we covet your prayers that our health stays good.  Also pray for our provision and support that it will stay steady every month.  We have had a couple of low months but God always makes up the difference.  We are also praying about making a trip to America next summer and we will need the finance for airfare and all of that as well.  Next summer, it will have been 4 years since we have been in America and we miss all you!  Agree with us in prayer that if it is God’s will for us to make this trip next year all will come into place.  Amen?

Okay, we pray God will continue to bless all of you as well and meet all of you needs over and above!  We appreciate all of your prayer and support and know we cannot do what we do without you!

We love you all!

July Update 2018

 
                  Greetings everyone in the Name of Jesus!

We pray you are all being blessed.  Annie and I continued this month with continuing to minister in our scheduled churches.  We are being blessed by being able to minister and watch these churches grow in the Lord. 

 







We started out the month at Lamp of Khon Kaen Church.  I taught the young people in the morning and the Annie preached in the main service.  God moved among us and had one person receive Jesus in their heart!

 









We had a special blessing this month.  We went to Bangkok Monday to Friday and was able to visit our dear friends from Texas (Danny and Peggy Thornton) as they ministered in a church there.  What a great blessing to be able to sit in while they ministered and taught on street evangelism.  We were truly blessed. 

 
While we were there in Bangkok, we ran across a young man that we had not seen for 18 years. We knew him when he had just came from Laos and was struggling during that time.  We also was able to use him to help us minister in a small village during that time.  He is now grown up, married with 2 children, and a pastor s]at a church in central Thailand.  Praise God!

 









After Bangkok we were back at Chum PHAE Church for the Sunday service.  Annie taught the first round and then I preached in the regular service. We preached about relationship and God blessed us all.

 








Then we went on to Thai Buriram church and were blessed.  Annie taught and then I preached on Evangelism this month. Every month while we are here, I spend Monday mornings teaching the Bible to Pastor Bob.  It has been a blessing and great opportunity to disciple him each month.  Pray for us as we continue this special ministry and starting this month we have another minister from out in a village joining us for the teaching.  Praise God, I love teaching and making disciples!

Please keep us in prayer this month and next.  We have a church scheduled for every weekend for 10 weeks, so pray for our health, energy and strength for the both of us. In September we will be having a team visit us so pray Gods will be done and God will lead us while they are here.

Pray for God’s direction and will to be done in our ministry next year as well.  We have been invited to bring a team from Thailand to the Philippines next year during the month of May.  Also, we are praying about coming back to America either this Fall or next summer.  I have been looking for reasonable price tickets but have not found any yet.  Haha. Pray I will be able to find some cheap tickets somehow so we can go and visit you all.  We miss you all!  Haha

God bless everyone and we pray for all of you every day.  A special thanks to all of you who support us financially and pray for us because we could not do what we do without you!

We love you!

Ralph & Annie
