Krabi Baptist


Worship at Krabi Baptist
Last Sunday morning the pastor of the church, Ajohn Dusit, picked us up to take us to church.  At the church we were informed that we would sing a song during the testimony time.  Boy was this a surprise since neither of us are known for our vocal abilities. To be honest, we were scared!  A song was chosen for us to sing and we went over the Thai words together.  One of the young men of the church helped us sing - he also played the guitar for us.  God gave us a calm spirit just before singing and people even clapped when we finished. 

When it came time for Richard to preach, I was told that I would translate for the 2 western people, who came to worship.  Richard did a good job preaching from the Old Testament. He had the congregation laughing by the questions and statements that he made in the sermon.  He talked on the subject of the bold servants in Naaman's life and the prophet Elisha from 2 Kings, Chapter 5.  His single point was that God can use you no matter what your position in life to lead others to God.


After the worship service, we were treated like movie stars.  Many Thai friends wanted to have their pictures taken with us.  One girl traveled 2 1/2 hours from another province to hear Richard preach and to see us.  We toured the new studio of the church's radio station too.  Some of you contributed to buying a new tower for the radio station.  Praise God that 1 family has believed and another Christian family are now coming to worship at the church because of the new tower reaching a greater audience.  Thank you for giving!
