The Last Few Weeks


Sawat di Ka!

We apologize for the late post but life has been pretty busy here in Chiang Mai these past few weeks with prison ministries, prayer seminars, Floating Festival, Red Light District, Bless Chiang Mai and Thanksgiving.
Here are the Highlights

Chiang Mai’s Annual Floating Festival –In 3 days,  our team passed out 300 goodie bags for Thai people and foreigners which included The Father’s letter, candy, and coffee/milo, 2 young men surrendered their lives to Jesus, a curious Italian man (covered in tattoos) chased down Alanna asking if the Father’s letter was really true and many spiritual conversations with people.  

Bless Chiang Mai- 4000 Thai people gathered in downtown Chiang Mai at Thapae Gate to worship and pray for Thailand. God is truly raising up an army here in this nation.
At the end of the event, out team got to dance like crazy with the Thai youth to One way Jesus. It was glorious.

Thai/America Thanksgiving:  Our outreach couldn’t have been a better time…it was perfect that we got to spend Thanksgiving with our new Thai family. Yes, our group of 10 has now increased to who knows how much...

Instead of having an all American thanksgiving which was impossible to do, we decided to mix the two. The ACTS team cooked green bean casserole, broccoli casserole, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, cookies, and peach cobbler while the Thai people cooked the meat including pig brains that looked like egg with spices. The Thai people loved the American dishes…praise God.
 
The most memorable moment that night was when we all went around and gave thanks. Many of the young girls from the Peace Home said they were thankful for our team and prayer, how they’ve grown so much in The Lord from coming to our prayer meetings. They’ve also shared about the love and closeness they’ve felt from our team…never underestimate a hug or a smile.
