This was a fun picture week. The members in Korat are so kind to share their wonderful pictures with us. They all follow the email post this week.
"This will be a really short email because we are going to go play Songkran and have to meet at a member's house soon. The weather here is still hot. I have one of the biggest farmer's tan! haha Sometimes I really do look Khon Thai."
"I loved conference! There were so
many talks that were so great! All the apostles were straight to the
point. I was more happy to see conference than I was to play Songkran. In
the Young Women's little music video, they showed eight countries and
Thailand was one of them!"
"This
week has been awesome! We have 13 investigators! It is a really big
miracle. I may not be able to see all of them get baptized, but I'll
know that I helped. Last Saturday, we were watching conference and two
ladies that we had invited to come to the session, actually came. We
talked to them afterwards and told them about the church and the
restoration. They stayed and watched the next session and they told us
that although it wasn't scripture, they felt that it was the words of
God. It was so cool! They feel that God brought them to see us and that
he had provided a way for them to come. They are really golden. One lady
has 20 members in her family that are Christian and live together. The
other lady is from another church and is high up in their leadership.
That would really be a miracle if we could baptize a whole congregation!
For now, we will focus on the two ladies. haha"
"We
also have 4 Filipino investigators, so we have been doing a lot of
teaching in English. It's actually much harder to teach that way. haha
It's been great! A lot of success! Contacting was hard because everyone
says that they are playing Songkran. It is hard to get them to come to
church. There are a lot of things that we are trying to do to help out
the members and leadership in Korat. Nothing can stop the work of the
Lord, so no worries."
