God’s Miracle - El Walks
Exciting news from Khao Phanom. El walks. When we first met her 3 years ago, El’s legs were gray, hard and scaly she with no feeling in her legs and had been confined to her bed for 2 years. Before we left Thailand two years later, she could stand and walk some with help. On March 4th, El got baptized in the swimming pool of one of Krabi Baptist Church’s members. Praise God for all He is doing in El’s life. Please continue praying for her to grow in her faith and have more stability when she walks.
Krabi Baptist Church has been faithful in keeping up with those in Khao (Cow) Phanom (Pa-Nom) who have made a profession of faith. Members of Krabi Baptist have continued teaching one of our groups, encouraging those who are interested. Each Sunday afternoon, the pastor (A. Dusit) has preached at Khao Phanom Baptist Church and his members have been faithful in supporting that work on Sunday afternoons. Praise God for this Church and their members, who willingly give up their only free afternoon each week to serve God.
SPEAKING FROM COAST TO COAST
Since returning to the U.S., we have spoken from coast to coast - Carolina to California about the work we were involved with in Thailand. We have been able to share about Thailand’s darkness & lostness apart from Jesus Christ. We have shared the stories of Bird & Branee, as well as El, Mike, Sai & Ngam. Also we have shared of the faithfulness of Krabi Baptist Church in following up in their vision of a church in Khao Phanom district. We are awed at God’s work among the Southern Thai.
MEETING AN OLD THAI FRIEND
While in California, we met with an old Thai friend. We first met Verachai Saechang 26 years ago, when we were assigned to attend his father’s church in Bangkok. We had not seen him in about 15 years. What a joy to re-connect with him while we attended a Global Missions Conference in California, speak to his wife by phone and find out about his life in America.
Prayer & Praise

5. Pray that Ngam, Sai & Mike will continue to have Christian mentors and that their
parents will believe in Jesus Christ.
6. Pray that the members of Krabi Baptist will effectively communicate their faith
in God.
7. Pray that the radio station located in Krabi Baptist Church will broadly sow the
