Greetings in the precious name of Jesus! The 14th Annual IPHC Thailand, known as Alliance Church Association, Conference was joyfully held in May for three days of worship, business meetings, praying, preaching, teaching the Word of God and fellowshipping. It was a great conference with more than 140 pastors and leaders in attendance. Thanks to our anointed IPHC guest speakers, Dr. Terry Tramel, Rev. Russell Board and Rev. Lorenzo Aguilar. They imparted the Word of God powerfully on the conference theme \u201cPower of Faith\u201d. By faith, a new vision came and that is to grow the number of churches from 54, currently, to 100 within three years. On the final day of the conference, credentials were awarded to 11 mission workers, 10 licensed ministers and 2 ordained seminary teachers. Thank God for the new workers in the vineyard. We went back home rejoicing, refreshed, blessed and inspired to finish the race that the Lord has entrusted to us.<\/p>\n
By the grace of God, the ACA ministries are continually bearing much fruit reaching not only Thais, but also Filipinos, Nepalese, Burmese, Akha and Karen Tribes. This is in spite of being in a predominantly Buddhist nation and currently under the military junta administration. The power of the Gospel is unstoppable and it cannot be chained. We thank you for your prayers and unwavering support which makes the ministry fruitful and blessed.<\/p>\n
We thank God for the four souls saved during the Sunday worship service on May 14th at Pantamit Don Muang Church. Moreover, on May 21st , there were another eight souls added. Hallelujah! Pastor Chi Chang of Mae Sai Church reported that there were eight new believers who were recently baptized. I believe that in other ACA churches, many souls are also being harvested. This causes the ACA churches to continue increasing. To God be the glory!<\/p>\n
God is good! The land in Mae Sai where the church is located was finally donated to our foundation officially, after 10 years of negotiation with Khun Pawanee. Faith, prayer, patience and perseverance works! God answers prayers and indeed He makes everything beautiful in His time. The title of the land was turned over to our National Director, Dr. Wallapa Wisawasukmongchol, and me during the 20th Anniversary of Mae Sai Pantamit Church. The church building which was funded locally and completed in 2010. The current value of the building and the land is approximately $180,000.<\/p>\n
Please join us in prayer concerning the financial provisions to build the Thailand Theological Seminary building (Project #74520). We have been here for over 15 years and we believe in our hearts that your contributions to this endeavor will definitely have a great impact in spreading the Gospel of Christ effectively. The demand to train more workers is urgently needed as the ministries continue to expand. Remember, our beloved brethren, Christianity here in Thailand is merely 1% of a huge 68 million population. The harvest is truly plenteous but the laborers are few. Pray that the Lord of the harvest will send laborers into the harvest field. Thank you and God bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

La 14 \u00aa Conferencia Anual de IPHC de Tailandia, conocida como Asociaci\u00f3n de la Iglesia de la Alianza, fue celebrada con gozo en mayo durante tres d\u00edas de adoraci\u00f3n, reuniones de negocios, oraci\u00f3n, predicaci\u00f3n, ense\u00f1anza de la Palabra de Dios y compa\u00f1erismo. Fue una gran conferencia con m\u00e1s de 140 pastores y l\u00edderes en asistencia. Gracias a nuestros oradores invitados de IPHC ungidos, el Dr. Terry Tramel, la Junta de Rev. Russell y el Rev. Lorenzo Aguilar. Ellos impartieron la Palabra de Dios poderosamente sobre el tema de la conferencia \"Poder de Fe\". Por fe, una nueva visi\u00f3n vino y eso es crecer el n\u00famero de iglesias de 54, actualmente, a 100 dentro de tres a\u00f1os. En el \u00faltimo d\u00eda de la conferencia, se otorgaron credenciales a 11 trabajadores misioneros, 10 ministros licenciados y 2 maestros de seminario ordenados. Gracias a Dios por los nuevos trabajadores en el vi\u00f1edo. Volvimos a casa regocijados, renovados, bendecidos e inspirados para terminar la carrera que el Se\u00f1or nos ha confiado. Por la gracia de Dios, los ministerios de la ACA est\u00e1n continuamente llevando mucho fruto alcanzando no s\u00f3lo a los tailandeses, sino tambi\u00e9n a los filipinos, nepaleses, birmanos, Akha y las tribus Karen. Esto es a pesar de estar en una naci\u00f3n predominantemente budista y actualmente bajo la administraci\u00f3n de la junta militar. El poder del Evangelio es imparable y no puede ser encadenado. Le agradecemos por sus oraciones y apoyo inquebrantable que hace que el ministerio sea fruct\u00edfero y bendito. Damos gracias a Dios por las cuatro almas salvadas durante el culto del domingo el 14 de mayo en la iglesia Pantamit Don Muang. Adem\u00e1s, el 21 de mayo, se agregaron otras ocho almas. \u00a1Aleluya! El Pastor Chi Chang de la Iglesia de Mae Sai inform\u00f3 que hab\u00eda ocho nuevos creyentes que fueron recientemente bautizados. Creo que en otras iglesias ACA, muchas almas tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n siendo cosechadas. Esto hace que las iglesias ACA sigan aumentando. \u00a1A Dios sea la gloria! \u00a1Dios es bueno! La tierra en Mae Sai donde se encuentra la iglesia fue finalmente donada a nuestra fundaci\u00f3n oficialmente, despu\u00e9s de 10 a\u00f1os de negociaci\u00f3n con Khun Pawanee. \u00a1La fe, la oraci\u00f3n, la paciencia y la perseverancia funcionan! Dios responde a las oraciones y de hecho hace que todo sea hermoso en su tiempo. El t\u00edtulo de la tierra fue entregado a nuestro Director Nacional, el Dr. Wallapa Wisawasukmongchol, ya m\u00ed durante el 20 aniversario de la Iglesia Mae Sai Pantamit. El edificio de la iglesia que fue financiado localmente y terminado en 2010. El valor actual del edificio y de la tierra es aproximadamente $ 180.000. Por favor \u00fanase a nosotros en oraci\u00f3n sobre las disposiciones financieras para construir el edificio del Seminario Teol\u00f3gico de Tailandia (Proyecto # 74520). Hemos estado aqu\u00ed por m\u00e1s de 15 a\u00f1os y creemos en nuestros corazones que sus contribuciones a este esfuerzo definitivamente tendr\u00e1n un gran impacto en la difusi\u00f3n del Evangelio de Cristo con eficacia. La demanda de formar m\u00e1s trabajadores es urgentemente necesaria a medida que los ministerios contin\u00faan expandi\u00e9ndose. Recuerden, nuestros amados hermanos, el cristianismo aqu\u00ed en Tailandia es s\u00f3lo el 1% de una enorme poblaci\u00f3n de 68 millones de habitantes. La cosecha es realmente abundante, pero los obreros son pocos. Oremos para que el Se\u00f1or de la cosecha env\u00ede obreros al campo de la cosecha. Gracias y Dios te bendiga.","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/08\/Gonzales-Cover.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb62Ar-qp","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1637","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1637"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1637\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1637"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1637"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1637"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
