From his and another partner's work, 8 new believers were baptized in February, 22 more in another place in March. In other places he is working, 50 more new believers are are taking baptism this month, possibly as this blog goes out. Praise the Lord!! "D" is also helping the churches he has planted become self supporting by making washing detergents, planting crops and starting chicken and fish farms to sell for food. He is also busy training other church planting groups in the same methods as we taught. One group in another district of his state has planted 65 new churches in the last 6 months. By this, the Glory of God will cover South Asia as the waters cover the seas, starting with this place!
This is the kind of growth we hope to see among God's people in Thailand. The above work took many years of toiling, and did not happen overnight, and we cannot take credit for it, but all credit and glory go to God. We were simply fortunate enough that God used us to be His vessels for the training these brothers received.
As we go to Thailand, we are hopeful and are believing on faith that God will use us in a similar way. Please continue to pray for South Asia and God's Kingdom to continue to grow there. Also, pray for the way to be prepared for us to join and assist what God is doing in the "Land of Smiles".
