Dear Partners and Friends,<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Dear Partners and Friends,
\nWe are thankful to God and to all our faithful partners in the gospel for the continuous, fruitfulness in the ministries here in Thailand. Our mission trip south to the Krabi and Phuket regions (near Malaysia) on Oct. 2-4 reignited our brethren to keep spreading the gospel as the Lord has commanded us to do. They were encouraged and inspired to do more for the Lord: one of them, decided to construct a church building on his own property; another accepted the responsibility to be a leader in the region and offered to help other pastors in their discipleship program. Our mission trip north to the Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai regions (near Myanmar) on Oct. 27-30 was also a huge success. Our relationship with our brethren there was strengthened and planting more churches became more challenging to them. We were touched and tremendously blessed to see our tribal ministry outreaches prospering: the Akha, Karen, and Lisu tribes besides our Thai and international groups. Great things are happening in the North, especially among the tribal groups. Hallelujah!<\/p>\n

Praise the Lord! Two young people got saved during our church\u2019s camp in Chaam on October 12-14. We were focusing on enlarging the vision and missions of the church through evangelism, discipleship, and church planting by sending missionaries to different areas. We had a great time together in the presence of the Lord in worship while also fellowshipping with one another. Thank God for our new IPHC Missionary Abigail Bishop for helping the Youth Ministry \u201cYoungZa\u201d as she works well with our Youth Pastor Frong Panitan. Moreover, in mid-October, she started teaching English for free every Saturday from 10 am to noon at the church to reach out to the community for Christ. The community is beginning to hear about this program, and now the attendance in her class is increasing. Blessed be the name of the Lord!<\/p>\n

God be praised! The Marriage Ablaze Conference conducted by Peter and Christine Kairuz of CBN Asia (Host of 700 Club Asia) on Oct. 22 in coordination with our Filipino group led by Pastor Gel Lardizabal reignited the intensity of love relationship between husbands and wives for happy and Godly marriages. There were 60 couples who attended, which were mostly pastors and leaders from different churches. In another special occasion, on Nov. 8, I was humbly honored to give a message for groom Pakorn Sangwang and bride Narada Sangamangmoon on their wedding ceremony in Ratchaburi province. The bride is the daughter of our beloved friends, Revs. Thewa and Kritika Sangamangmoon. We have served the Lord together for over 20 years under IPHC Thailand. It was a beautiful and meaningful wedding! There were about 200 people who came to witness this great event. In one big event, I enjoyed my time celebrating the 20th anniversary of Jesus Reigns (one of our Filipino Churches under our umbrella) on Nov. 12.<\/p>\n

Queridos y queridos socios y amigos: <\/p>

Estamos muy agradecidos con Dios por permitirnos continuar sirvi\u00e9ndole con usted, nuestros fieles socios y amigos de los Estados Unidos. Tambi\u00e9n estamos agradecidos al Reverendo Russell Board y al Director Nacional Dr. Wallapa Wisawasukmongchol. Ahora tenemos m\u00e1s de 19 a\u00f1os en el campo, y nos sentimos honrados de poder ver el poderoso movimiento de Dios al llevar la vida de las personas de la oscuridad a una luz maravillosa. Por su gracia y poder, el n\u00famero de iglesias aument\u00f3 a 81 de 75 en 2018, con cerca de 5,000 miembros de 4,500 a fines de diciembre de 2019. <\/p>

El programa de discipulado, a trav\u00e9s del Seminario Teol\u00f3gico de Tailandia (TTS) y el Centro de Capacitaci\u00f3n B\u00edblica del Mekong (MBTC), incluye las Conferencias Anuales de IPHC \/ ACA y una variedad de capacitaciones impartidas por iglesias individuales para equipar a los santos. Este programa est\u00e1 dando muchos frutos en la expansi\u00f3n del reino de Dios en Tailandia y en los pa\u00edses vecinos. Hubo siete graduados en MBTC en Mae Sai el 1 de febrero de 2020, para el programa de dos a\u00f1os. Esperamos que un total de 230 estudiantes en TTS se grad\u00faen (diplomas, licenciaturas, maestr\u00edas y grados dcotroales en el ministerio) en noviembre de este a\u00f1o. La construcci\u00f3n del edificio MBTC est\u00e1 progresando, y la construcci\u00f3n principal del edificio TTS en Petchabun est\u00e1 a punto de comenzar. \u00a1Gracias, IPHC WMM, socios y amigos, por sus continuas oraciones y apoyo inquebrantable! <\/p>

<\/p>

\u00a1Alabado sea el Se\u00f1or! La celebraci\u00f3n del 18 aniversario de la Iglesia Pantamit Don Muang (la primera iglesia de IPHC en Tailandia) el 19 de enero de 2020, fue incre\u00edble. Asistieron m\u00e1s de 120 personas en presencia de Dios y disfrutamos de la celebraci\u00f3n de adoraci\u00f3n en la ma\u00f1ana. Tuvimos un gran almuerzo juntos y lo seguimos con un alegre momento de comuni\u00f3n por la tarde. Agradecemos a Dios por bendecir continuamente los ministerios de nuestros ni\u00f1os, j\u00f3venes, hombres y mujeres. Tambi\u00e9n le agradecemos por enviarnos l\u00edderes y trabajadores fieles para ayudarnos a cumplir el ministerio que el Se\u00f1or nos ha confiado que hagamos como pastor de la iglesia y como misioneros junto con Jiep. Agradecemos a Dios por bendecir el a\u00f1o 2019, y creemos que lo mejor est\u00e1 por venir este a\u00f1o. <\/p>

Pasamos un tiempo maravilloso celebrando la Navidad en nuestra iglesia en Don Muang el 22 de diciembre de 2019, la Iglesia Khon Suey con la tribu Akha en Chiang Rai el 31 de diciembre, y en la casa del Dr. Wallapa con pastores y l\u00edderes de la ACA el 10 de enero de 2020. Est\u00e1bamos abrumados de alegr\u00eda al ver la gloria de Dios manifestada en medio de nosotros. \u00a1Aleluya! De hecho, \u00e9l es la \u00fanica raz\u00f3n de este gran evento. <\/p>

Nuestro equipo de 20 personas de Bangkok tuvo el honor de interpretar dos bailes y cuatro canciones con una multitud de m\u00e1s de 1,000 personas como p\u00fablico, incluidos el gobernador, el vicegobernador y el director del Departamento de Desarrollo Social y Bienestar durante la celebraci\u00f3n del "Festival del Tamarindo". en la provincia de Petchabun el 26 de enero. Fue una actuaci\u00f3n tan excelente que el gobernador y otros funcionarios del gobierno subieron al escenario despu\u00e9s y mostraron un gran aprecio por nuestra presencia y plena cooperaci\u00f3n con el programa gubernamental en el desarrollo comunitario. Agradecemos a Dios por tener una relaci\u00f3n armoniosa con el gobierno tailand\u00e9s, lo que nos ayuda a expandir el reino de Dios en Tailandia de manera legal y efectiva. <\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Que el Se\u00f1or los bendiga rica y abundantemente a todos. <\/p>
