Prayer Meeting

We had our first Prayer Meeting at one of the Shan youth's house today.
Apaporn gladly opened her house for prayer meeting.
This will be a weekly affair - every Wednesday 7pm @ Suan Luang village.

I really thank God for this time that we can just come together for a time of praise, and read His Word. It's also a great time for the youths to share their thanksgiving and prayer requests, as well as to learn to pray for one another.

There were 9 youths who came today - Chompuu, Pao, Pee, Laa, Apaporn, Bua, Yupin, Somchai & Seagame. Together with p'Sam, Motu and myself, we spent time praying for each other. We also prayed for wisdom for the upcoming Christmas events, as well as for God's direction and provision, to bring forth a suitable person to work amongst the Shan in this ministry.

Do pray together with us, that through our weekly prayer meetings, the youths will not just learn about prayer, but also learn to pray.

"19 I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall.
20 I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me.
21 Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:
22 Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
24 I say to myself, "The Lord is my protion; therefore I will wait for Him." "
Lamentations 3:19-24
