Everyday Miracles

Recently we had Baptisms at a swimming pool - 9 new believers were Baptized. The next day one of the new believers had an accident and cracked his back bone. The doctor ordered bed rest for one month. We were really concerned about the affect this would make on his new faith and prayed a lot. One day Gampon woke up very early and felt strongly to pray for this man. Then he had a picture of the man and a tiger on his back. God revealed that this was a major bondage in the life of the new believer. That day Gampon went to visit the guy and talked to him about what God had shown him. The man showed Gampon a big tattoo of a Tiger on his back and explained the circumstances why he got it. The man repented on some issues and then Gampon prayed over him and he immediately stood up and had no more pain. Praise God! He is the God of miracles and reveals the darkness and has the victory over it!

Youth Training Week and Church Camp

Youth Training Week was held from March 31 till April 5. We had 60 young people, teaching them on the Father heart of God, Sin and forgiveness,Inner Healing, Relationships, Walk through the bible, Evangelism, Holy Spirit...The week was a tremendous success and made a powerful impact into these young peoples life. Our team did a marvelous job and we are so blessed to have each one of them. Tik, one of our staff, also just fit right back in. He had spend the last year in the Philippines, just came back and wants to serve God full time alongside with us.

A week later we headed for our annual church camp (April 12-16). Together with our daughter churches we counted over 150 participants. It was boiling hot!!! Again we saw God touching and changing lifes. Despite cultural differences (Thai, Akkha, Lahu, Karen, American, British and German ) there was a great sense of unity and teamwork.
