Though a Buddhist country, in the
recent years, the number of Christians has increased
dramatically because of bold evangelism by local Thai believers.
Through the years, God has helped us start twelve Thai and
Burmese churches in the Golden Triangle of Northern Thailand.
Early this year, Harvest NOW has begun supporting Orphan
children living in these orphanages in Northern Thailand. The
churches in Thailand continue to grow. Especially the young
people have taken a hold of their new found faith and are a
constant witness of the gospel to their friends.
Many times the Buddhist monks take
the children away from their families and bring them to the
temples with a promise for education. As soon as they arrive in
the temples, their heads are shaved and are made to be monks at
the early age of 4 or 5. Girls are taken in or sold for
prostitution and other exploitation. Why do these children have
to live with such fear and injustice? We as God’s people can do
something about it.
Thousands of ethnic Hmong in
northern Thailand have been evicted from their homes, as part of
a government plan to encourage them to return to their native
Laos.
Currently Harvest NOW supports
orphanages in northern Thailand. Please pray with us for this
project. Our dream is to support 1,000 children all over Asia.
If you know of anyone who would like to help in such project,
please encourage him or her to contact us.
The church in Thailand has taken its
challenge to win their nation to Jesus. God is raising up a new
generation of young people who are sold out to God but they need
teaching, vision and mentoring. Harvest NOW is providing
teaching, finances, and support for local Thai churches.

How then shall they call on him
in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in
him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without
a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent?
as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach
the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
Romans 10: 14 (KJV)
