DAY 16 – Reaching
Thai Men Through Soccer Outreach – Dec 14, 2018
As I write this update it is actually the morning
after our soccer outreach last night Dec 14, 2018. God has given us several
platforms of reaching out into our community to advance the cause of Christ and
one of those started many, many years ago and has continued to flourish. That
platform is our soccer outreach platform. God has raised up 3 men that currently
lead this ministry: Jay, Ball, and Glen. These men are involved in our soccer
outreach each week but this was a very special time last night when we had
about 50 men who are currently university students come out to our Christmas
Tournament and have not only a great time, but got to hear two testimonies and
hear the truth that the real meaning of Christmas is the celebration of the
Birth of Jesus Christ who would one day die on the cross for the sins of all
mankind.
We are thankful that both Ahyaw – a young man that
is active in our church here – and Nick – a young man active at our partner
church from MS – were able to share their testimonies of how God changes lives.
We were so blessed to have a team from Gulfport,
MS to share in what God is doing through our soccer ministry to these young men
and future leaders.
Please keep us in your prayers as we reach out to
some of the least reached people in our world today.
Also please remember to pray for our outreach
tonight – it is at Baan Athitaan Church and will our largest single outreach
event of the year.

Prayer Example:
“Lord, We want to begin our prayer with thanking you for the awesome
opportunity that you have given to NTIM and to Baan Athitaan Church to reach
out to men at the university in their city. Thank you for the testimonies of
both Ahyaw and Nick and may they be used to draw these men closer to you. We
would ask that you open the hearts of everyone who hears and may we all be
drawn coser to Jesus. We pray this in Jesus name. Amen.”
