Spending this past year in the USA, we have seen God do many amazing things. We've accomplished much and been used by the Lord to serve others. But, we are more than ready to get back to Thailand.
Lord willing, the next newsletter you receive from us, we will be back home in Thailand!
Please be praying that God will give us wisdom, patience and endurance as once again we navigate the transition from one country to another. Packing, plane tickets, renewed passports, visas, transportation, finding housing, unpacking, setup, negotiating government red-tape, … and the list goes on and on. Though we have been through this process dozens of times, that doesn't make it any less daunting than before.
And again, I am reminded of how important it is to keep our true priorities in focus. More than 38 years ago we first arrived as full-time missionaries in Thailand. Our driving motivation was a desire to demonstrate the love of Jesus to the Thai people. Now, decades later as we return again to Thailand, that is still our goal. Since so few folks in Thailand claim to follow Jesus, we pray for them to see and experience the love of Christ.
2 Cor. 5:14 For the love of Christ constraineth us;...
Thank you for years of standing together with us and the Thai people. Our health is still very good and our resolve is stronger than ever. We look forward to continuing to follow the Lord as we serve the people of Thailand.
