Love In Action

Bible Study in South East Asia

We thank God for His blessings and for answering our prayers.

Last month, we shared that we are praying to start a ministry for Lao-speaking people. And God has already helped us take the first steps.

We have started house-to-house visitation. We visit families, build friendships, and look for opportunities to share God's love. During our visits, when some of them feel sick or tired, my wife offers a gentle massage and care. Please pray that the visits would help build trust and open doors for more opportunities to witness.

Two Lao-speaking church members also joined us. We heard that they had not been attending church because of a language barrier. We are thankful that they were able to come, and we are praying for them as we invite them to continue joining our worship. Please pray for this important ministry as we reach out to more Lao-speaking people. We sang songs in Lao and Thai, listened to testimonies, prayed together, and studied the Bible. The worship was mainly in the Lao language, with some Thai and a little English, since many of the young people also enjoy learning English. Because Lao and Thai are very similar, I praise God that my Thai language is still very useful here. Last Sabbath, I preached in Thai, and everyone was able to understand the message.

Before, some Lao people wanted to attend the Hmong church, but they could not understand the language well. Because of this, it was difficult for them to grow in their faith. Now they have a place where they can worship God and hear His Word in a language they understand.

By the grace of God, we believe this is the beginning of something wonderful. Please pray that this new home church will continue to grow and that many more Lao people will come to know Jesus.

Please pray:

1. That God will lead us to more people who want to study the Bible.

2. That more Lao families will join the home church.

3. That the young people will grow strong in their faith.

4. That God will give us wisdom and strength as we continue this ministry.

Thank you very much for your prayers and support. Indeed, your kindness is helping bring the good news of Jesus to the Lao people. May God continue to bless you richly.

Missionaries In A Closed Country

Treating Sick Patient In Thailand

Please pray for our SULADS ministry among the Karen people in Maesot, Tak Province. There has been a malaria outbreak in the area, and several members of the community, Karen students especially are affected. Pray for God’s healing hand to be upon those who are sick, for strength and protection over the healthy, and for wisdom and resources for the caregivers especially Sulad Roger- our SULADS nurse.

May the Lord cover the mission with His mercy, stop the spread of the disease, and restore health and peace to everyone at Sunshine Orchard.

Baptism In A Closed Country

We praise God for the wonderful work He is doing through our faithful missionary, Sulad Thaivej, in the remote Village of a communist country. Despite the challenges of distance, limited access, and the reality of working in a communist country where Christian activities are often restricted, the Holy Spirit has moved powerfully among the people of this village. Sulad Thaivej is overjoyed to report that 9 precious souls have accepted Jesus Christ through baptism. This is a remarkable testimony of God’s grace at work in a difficult mission field. Please continue to uplift Sulad Thaivej in your prayers, that God may grant him wisdom, strength, and protection as he ministers under challenging conditions. Let us also pray earnestly for the new believers—that their faith may grow strong, that they may be rooted in the Word, and that they may become faithful witnesses of Jesus Christ in their community. To God be the glory!
