“With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible” (Mark 10:27).Thank God that Michael is already back home since Monday (7 January). No one could imagine that he could be discharged from the hospital in less than 3 weeks. Certainly, our God “is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20). Praise the God! It is indeed His doing that Michael could recover so quickly.
Michael’s parents are still patiently taking care of him. Every day, they feed him with porridge and water, but it is not easy for Michael to swallow. They also have to clean his waste and wipe his body. It is definitely not an easy job. However, thank God for their love for Michael. May the Lord grant them strength daily to attend to Michael.
At present, Michael is still lying on the bed and could not talk nor recognise the people around him. God knows what is best and surely will work all things out for good to them that love Him (Romans 8:28). Thanks for praying and thank God for answering prayer. “Have faith in God” (Mark 11:22, KJV). Keep praying!
Today (Saturday) is children's Day in Thailand. We celebrated it yesterday with our children at Home and will also bring all of them out today (Saturday). Thank God for enabling us to start a children ministry and for the bond we have with all the children He has given us. Thank God especially for saving their souls. We are reminded of what Jesus says in Matthew 19:14, “Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
We will also be visiting Pong Hai village tomorrow as the folks there invited us for their Lahu New Year. Pong Hai is a new village and there is a church there. During our Christmas outreach there in December, the committee members of the church requested for their church to come under our church’s umbrella. God willing, we will meet up with their church committee today (Saturday) to talk about this matter. Do pray with us as we ask God for guidance and direction in this new outreach.
The church in Pong H
ai village consists of a few Black and Red Lahu families worshipping together. God willing, we will be ministering to the people there on the 20 of January. Please pray for all our preparation and for Robert in his preaching in that church (11 a.m. service) and for Dara interpreting the message into Lahu. Prior to the worship service, we plan to start a children ministry at 10 a.m. Do pray that the children will be drawn in and will be receptive to the teaching of the Word of God.Besides, we will also be ministering at Hui Pu village on the 19 of January (in the evening). Preparation is still on the way. May God grant us the strength to serve Him faithfully.
Thank God that both preachers from Pong Hai and Hui Pu villages and their families have been attending our Sunday worship services. We are also providing training for them to be more effective in their ministries. Brethren, pray for u
s for wisdom to equip the preachers and to reach out the people.His unworthy servants,
Robert, Dara, Evangel & Evangeline Peh
& all in the Christian Home of Love
