Thailand Outreach Time


Hello all,
Most of you know that I will be traveling to Thailand once again this winter. I am going back to the village of Na Hong with hopes of planting a church in the village. Our main ministry will be teaching English in the public school.
A couple things:
First I am extremely excited. I love the people of Na Hong and of Thailand so this is my heart. For me it is not a vacation in any sense of the word. My heart aches to see these amazing people come to Christ.
So please keep our team in your prayers

For me personally this is going to be a ton of work. Setting up and coordinating things that'll happen around the world is a chore.
Please keep me in your prayers.

Also, please pray about my finances. We just found out that we will need to order our plane tickets this Tuesday. The flights have gone up at least $400 from last year and we'll need to fly into Bangkok rather then Chaing Mai. What that means is after 30 hrs of flight travel we are going to take an 11hr double decker night bus to Chaing Mai.

So I am faced with the requirement of getting $1600 by Tuesday. Please pray about supporting me financially if able. I have never particularly enjoyed asking others for help because I've always been a hard worker that supplies for myself but times have changed and I must rely on God to provide. Every little bit helps. Really every small bit helps me out. I value you and praise God for your prayers and support.

This is going to be an adventure that's for sure, but one that God has called me to and I anticipate Him doing great things in Thailand.

Please pray for our students as well. Many of them need passports and finances in record time. Their names are: Michael Knight, Sarah Egge, Dorothy Taylor, Kelsy Hultberg and Josiah Merrill.

One of the main purposes of this letter is to ask you if you would like to receive email updates from our Thailand team while on outreach. If so please give me your email so I can create an email list for outreach updates. Thank you so much for your prayers and support. God bless you and your families
Lucas
