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

September Update 2023

 

                   Greetings Everyone in the Name of Jesus!

Well, finally getting around to doing our update for September.  I apologize for being late this month but we have been especially busy with all of our yearly health checkups and with a lot of extended testing this year.  Annie had her mammograms, ex-rays, bone scan and ultrasound this year.  Thanks for all of your prayers and all of her results were good again this year.  Free and free indeed!  Amen!  I had my checkups at the same time and the first results came out not so good.  My heart was enlarged and also had some cysts on my kidneys.  The doctors wanted to do more testing to find out more detailed results, so they did an Echo heart test and a CT Scan of my heart and abdomen.  The results came out that my heart and arteries are all okay and nothing further has to be done at this time!  Praise God!  The cysts on the kidneys are class one water cysts and also, nothing has to be done!  Praise God for evermore!  Thank you for all of your prayers and encouragement during this time.  God is good!
















Last month we ministered at COTR Buriram on the 20th, it was their 9th anniversary as a church and we had a great service.   God moved among us and everyone was blessed by His presence.  Also, at the end of the service I presented Pastor Bob with a certificate of training from KE resources and COTR America!  It was a certificate of training for one year, but in reality we have been teaching him now for 7 years. Afterwards we had a great time of fellowship and celebration.










On the 27th of August we were back at Lamp of Khon Kaen Church.  Annie taught pre-service and I preached the main service.  We had a great time with the Lord and fun and fellowship afterwards! Praise the Lord!

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support every month!  God is good and we are looking forward to October and the rest of the year!  

We are praying about visiting America again this coming year starting in March or April and spending a few months visiting everyone.  Please begin to pray for us because once again we need a car and a place to stay while we are there.  Amen?  If necessary, we are willing to rent a home or apartment as well. If you can help in these areas, please let me know, it would be nice to get everything set up early.

Okay God bless everyone and we love y'all!

Ralph and Annie
