Somboon's Visit to China 2009

Some of the Team Members:



Hello,
Thank you for all your pryrs and support. I was blessed to be a part of the team that went to China this past summer and would like to share Father’s work in China with you all. Even though the ministry that I’m involved is here in Thailand, for a long time now, I’ve pryed for Father to open doors for me to go to the surrounding closed countries such as Laos, Myanmar, Cambodia, and China. Praise the Lrd, this year, Father has given me that opportunity. Our team, which made up of people from the United States, China, and Thailand, was there for about two weeks from July 15th - August 2nd, 2009. It was a very humbling experience. We visited a lot of poor Hmong villages. Some of the Hmong villages have no water supply. They either depend totally on the rain as their main source or get their water from man-made ponds for cooking, drinking, washing, and feeding the animals. Some Hmong houses are made from red dirt because it was free. However, more than the physical poverty is the spiritual darkness they are living in. Almost all of the Hmong we met had either never heard of our Father or even knew who Father's Son JC is. While we were there, one young man accepted Father's Son JC and another went to church with us for the first time. Praise the Lrd! Even in the short time that we were there, Father has allowed us to see His hand at work. There are so much work to be done and very few workers. If Father wills, I would like to go back in the future to encourage them through His words. Pry with me for the Hmong people in China as well as those in Thailand that they will come to know our Lrd JC.

God bless.

Somboon
