Today we had our first seminar in The
Community (Traning ) Centre here in Ubon . Keith
and Joy D. from New Zealand visited us and 25 different leaders and pioneer
workers from Ubon came .
We had a good day with teaching, prayer and conversation about church planting in Ubon .
We looked into:
a) The need. Only 0.15 % Christian .
b) Ways forward. What works best in Ubon? The big "elephant" churches or the smaller "Rabbit" churches? In Thailand, it seems best if both types are complementing each other.
c ) Be encouraged. The fellowship and the word of God encouraged us today and (what we understand),everyone went home encouraged and with much hope .
It felt like all experienced God's presence here today. Otherwise, well...... it's no use to have a Center, unless God himself is the center and touches all who enter. A good sign today was that after Amen ... people did not want to go home. Ingvar
