The Harvest is Plentiful

 
 
Posted by Picasa


Matt. 9.37-38 (NASB) The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field.

Please pray for Project 20.20 "Border to Border, Village to Village Across the Golden Triangle of Thailand" (Acts 20.20) and HIM Leader that the harvest among Hmong will be great.

In Christ,

Francis D. Keck, CEO/President, Hmong International Ministries, Inc.

Mission Conference, Corinth Baptist Church, Eldorado, OK:

Richard and Shelly Manning, former IMB Missionaries to Thailand, serve God in this cotton farming community in the Southwestern corner of OK.

Richard and I started the conference on Saturday Nov. 14 with the children's bus ministry, visits to homebound members, and hospital visits. Shirley held the Saturday night event with the children and I led the Sunday morning and evening services. The church moved up its thanksgiving dinner on Monday night for the seniors so we could take part in it.

It was wonderful working with Richard and Shelly again.

Please scroll on down to four other groups of photos.

Fran and Shirley Keck

HIM Leader Report-New Christian in Khoone Sathang

HIM 20.20 Project "Border to Border Across the Golden Triangle of Thailand"-Acts 20.20 HIM Leader activities:

Dear Fran,

This is an update on HIM 20.20 Project in Ban Khoone Sathang, Nanoi District, Nan Province, Northern Thailand this afternoon.

We received a message from a patient at 11:30 A.M that they need me asap due to a very serious illness. We left home right away and met the patient at his home around 2 PM.

I had recently shared the Gospel with Mr. Cher Zong Xiong and he was lying on the chair waiting for me. He was eager for me tell him again

"how God could save me before me before I die. I know that if I die without Jesus Christ I will go straight to hell. I don't want to spend eternity in hell. I am happy to see you again, and I had decided to accept Jesus Christ before I had my brother call you. No matter what people think about me, I want to get saved. Whenever I die I will spend eternal life with Jesus Christ in Heaven."

Mr. Cher Zong Xiong with his wife and 3 children received Christ. After he and his family received Christ he said "no matter what happens to me I'll be with God in Heaven."
Mr. Cher Zong has kidney failure and doctor said will be very hard to treat. Please pray for Mr. Cher Zong Xiong and family, that God will heal his kidney and bless his family.

In Christ,

HIM 20.20 Project "Border to Border Across the Golden Triangle of Thailand"-Acts 20.20 HIM Leader activities:

Dear Fran,

This is an update on HIM 20.20 Project last weekend in Ban Khoone Sathang, Nanoi District, Nan Province.

I preached and taught Sunday School and we shared testimonies to several animist in the village. A few people were interested in the Gospel of Jeus Christ.

We proclaimed the Gospel to a group of 15 farmers in the rice field, joining them in the harvest. They were happy and excited, asking many questions about the True Living God.

I have answered their questions about all the crops throughout the Bible, that God created all crops and seasons, such as, a time to grow and time to harvest. I told them this included mankind.

They asked us to come back and share more about the True Living God and Jesus Christ. They had heard about God but nobody had ever explained God to them.

Thanks to God for using us to reach Hmong animist by joining the rice harvest. During this season Hmong are busy harvesting rice.

In Christ,

HIM Leader, Frontline Servant-HIM 20.20 Project "Border to Border Across the Golden Triangle of Thailand"-Act 20.20
