There is a pastor named Ajun Surachai, from a mountain village in Chiang Rai, who we help support in his growing ministry and aim to take a team to help once a year. He has contacted us and asked us to run a revival concert in his area. He is a man who serves God wholeheartedly and has lived on basically no support for years, so we plan to do this concert to bless his ministry. It will take place in January 2012 for 3 days (13th-15th). The revival concert will be for the hilltribe people (Karen, Auca, Lahu, and more). We are expecting that there will be 2000+ people who will come, those being Christians, new Christians, as well as people who have never even heard of God. The concert will include worship, teaching, opportunity for healing from sicknesses, and performances in thai dance and dramas in order to communicate God’s love (if we can find a team to help in this area). We would like to ask everyone to start praying for us now as we prepare for and plan this big 3-day concert. We believe God will use the prayers we pray in these next few months to bring incredible blessings to the hilltribe people in North Thailand.
We would like to ask prayer for:
- many people to come, even more than we expect, and that they would have a supernatural experience of God
- for unity in the Christians in these hilltribe villages
- for wisdom as A.Surachai and our team work together to plan the concert
- for the finances in that whole month (January), as our team goes to Chiang Rai, that God would provide the money for food, travel expenses, diesel etc, and especially the financial needs for the concert to take place.
- for safety as we travel, that God will protect us from danger
It is never too early to start praying, even though we won’t be leaving until January, there are still many things that we need to do (and need God to provide for) in these next few months in order for us to be able to go and have a positive effect. God has never let us down so praise Him for this! If you would like to know which specific things we need in order to make this concert happen, please contact us or see the Support Us page. These things are also needed for our ministry as we run many other similar programs in the future.
We, along with many of you, have been praying for the opportunity to do a concert like this for a long time! Thank you so much for standing with us. Now, God has given us the opportunity and we want to welcome it with open arms. We feel very excited for the things that God has in store.
