Baptisms at New Community Church, Bangkok

Dear friends,
Yesterday we saw three women and five children receive baptism. What an encouragement to see these women publically confessing their faith and also asking God's blessing on the lives of their children!
These are not in correct order (had some technical difficulties).
First, we have Nong Phet (with his mom, P'Wi).

















Then, Nong Phet's sister, Faa.
































Then, Nong Mina...P'Pawn and P'Chai's baby girl.


























Then Phough Jai, daughter of P'Geek.



















Then Phough Jai's brother, Dur, son of P'Geek.

Praise the Lord with us! And, please pray for these families that are seeking to grow in Christ. Pray for the children that they would grow up to be bold believers of Jesus, serving Him with all that they are. Thank you for your faithful prayers for the Thai people...God is buiding His kingdom, praise His name!

Easter Sunday

We had a special treat this Easter Sunday. Not only did we celebrate the Risen Lord (as we do every Sunday) but we worshipped with a brass quartet for two songs! It was so wonderful. Paul's dad and the Veldhorst children led us in Crown Him with Many Crowns and Christ the Lord Is Risen Today. Paul's dad also played a prelude to our English service.





After the English service, we celebrated Easter in our Thai service. During the Thai service, both Calvin and Adele were baptized and Emmy and Asa Mills were also baptized. It was such a wonderful day of rejoicing and claiming God's promises for our children.
Natee, our dear friend baptized our children. Afterwards we had a fellowship meal complete with a beautifully decorated cake that Rhianna and Jan made.

The last two pictures are of Adele and Calvin being baptized in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
