It’s officially summertime in the U.S., which means it’s
time for teams here in Chiang Rai!
We’re very excited about several teams and summer missionaries coming
out to serve and be a part of our ministry!

| Some of last summer's volunteers |
Our
first summer missionaries, Liz Johnson (Pastor Michael’s daughter) and Dallas
Vaughn, arrived on Friday the 25th and will be with us several weeks
helping us out in many ways. Our
first team, Mt. Zion Baptist Church from Florence, MS, arrives tomorrow, the 31st. Also serving with us this summer will
be summer missionaries Nikki Crew and Adrienne Bridges, a team from First
Baptist Church in Florence, MS, the Mississippi Law Enforcement Defensive Tactics
Team, and the Lupinacci family from Shades Mountain Baptist Church in
Birmingham, AL.
Our teams and summer missionaries will be involved in many different
projects, including (but certainly not limited to!): prayer riding in Huay Khu
village, teaching a B.I.B.L.E. training seminar for Hmong pastors, English Fun
Days, teaching English at Grace Language School, Coffee House, an instructor
course for Human Trafficking Rescuers, and an outreach mission to feed street
children in the city of Mae Sai on the Thailand/Burma border.

Please pray for these people as God prepares them and works
through them over the next couple months.
Also, please keep our staff in your prayers during this busy time,
especially the Espy family as they oversee the teams and volunteers. Most importantly pray that God will use the teams to make
Jesus famous in Northern Thailand!
*Special
Prayer Request: Pastor Michael had hernia surgery yesterday morning (Tuesday,
the 29th). Everything
went well and he is doing great.
Please pray for his recovery to be quick and painless!
In Christ,
Kara for the team
