Dear Churches and Friends, July 2024

Bible Baptist Church had a visitor named Mai. He graduated college a few years ago with Deat. We had witnessed to him during college, but he showed little interest. However, since graduating his life plans haven’t gone as expected and he fell on some hard times. Mai came to visit Deat a few times and we were able to sit and talk to him about life and death. After a Bible study and good discussion, he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour. It is sad but true that people in general wait till they are in trouble before they seek God. We thank God for Mai’s salvation and for His great mercy and longsuffering.
Our church also translated another book into Thai. We translated The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom. Her autobiography is an excellent book that will be a real blessing to the Thai Christians. We put it on a Thai Christian web page so others can download it for free. Bible Baptist Church has also started two new Bible studies. The first study is from the Old Testament about who the Jews are. We have several new Christians in the group, so a Jewish study will help start a foundation for future Bible studies. The second study is the book of Thessalonians. We will do a verse-by-verse study of Thessalonians.
Praise the Lord. We thank you for your prayers and support.

Dear church 
we are grateful for your prayers and impulse. 
 We continue working to reach Colombia for Christ. I want to tell you that we continue to plant the new church that is on the outskirts of Bogotá in a city called Mosquera. Thank God we continue to win souls during the week and the plan. What we will continue is to open Bible studies in homes in order to gain the trust of people and then reach others for Christ. The church is going well. Some people have been added. There are visitors and a good spirit. 
We recently had to change places to a cheaper one. It is not that big but it will help us to continue having services on Sundays while we grow. Let us remember that this church has only been in Mosquera for four months. The churches of sound doctrine are null there are none. and that is why we see the importance of the call to maintain this church and continue planting many more. 
The church in Bogotá is going well we are growing the brothers are committing much more and we are planning next year to do much better reaching more people aiming to bring Christ to other places  
our prayer requests are:
provision for a van for the use of the church. 
provision for a sound system for the new church in Mosquera 
I want to attach photos of the churches. The first four photos are from the new church in Mosquera. The following photos are from the Thanksgiving Day of the church in Bogotá.

Last month Bible Baptist Church has had several visitors from the local university. We have been regularly visiting the university to minister and distribute tracts. In addition to distributing tracts our young men and women will take time to sit and visit with students about Jesus Christ and the gospel. We have made several friends now and are starting to see results from our efforts. The names of the students that have come to visit are: New Nat Bay Mea and Jin. We will continue to build relationships and teach them about salvation and the Bible.

We have had a big month of outreach. In addition to the university work some of our young men and woman went to the hometown of three of our members ToeTo Deat and Fang. We were able to share the gospel to ToeTo’s mother and grandmother. We also had a Bible study with Fang’s grandfather and grandmother her aunt and husband.  Then we visited Deat’s aunt and cousins: Pen Stamp Champ. All are lost. We gave all of them a clear presentation of the gospel and left tracts with each. We also had a special mountain retreat meeting. Our theme focused on church and the family. We are very thankful for your prayers and support.

This last month Bible Baptist Church has had several visitors come to church from the university. We have been going regularly to the local university to minister and hand out tracts. In addition to just handing out tracts our young men and woman will take time to sit and talk with students about Jesus Christ and the gospel.  We have made several friends now and are starting to see a little fruit from our efforts. The names of the students that have come to visit are: New Naut Bay Mea and Jin. We will continue to build relationships and teach them about salvation and the Bible.

Isaiah 53:3-4 – “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken smitten of God and afflicted.”

Bible Baptist Church is continuing to go forward. We had our first wedding this month. Two of our founding members Deat and Fang got married. They were both saved and baptized under this ministry. We met through friends at a nearby university about 5 years ago. Deat the young man got saved first. Fang got saved about two years later. Both have since graduated and have been faithful coming to church. It is a real blessing to see two people get saved grow in the Lord and get married.
The wedding turned out to be a great opportunity to witness. Both Deat and Fang had lost family members and friends come to the wedding. One of our young men Toe gave a clear presentation of the gospel at the end of the wedding.
An interesting side note that caught my attention: Most of the people that attended the wedding even Christians from our church had never seen a Christian wedding. So it was a new experience for our group. There was an excellent spirit at the wedding that seemed to touch the hearts of both Christians and non-Christians. We thank the Lord for such a good spirit and strong testimony.
We are very thankful for your prayers and support.
