MAESOT, THAILAND
Pappet Amihan, Roselyn Sanchez, Arlene Joy Gahaton, and Gigi Callao, Filipino missionaries in Maesot, Thailand. The Elpis School received some monetary gift from MEANS which they used to purchase from a Foursquare Church in Maesot: a heavy duty oven, blender, pan, racks and other baking tins for their coffee shop and bakery.
The bakery which is part of the vocational center will help sustain the needs of Elpis School, and other ministry initiatives in Maesot.
For 2009-2010 enrollment at Elpis School has increased to 467 children of different ethnicities to include Thai, Sqaw Karen, Po Karen, Ka Chin, Mon/Chinese, Indian and Burmese with 238 migrant children enrollment.
At the school, the Filipino missionaries provide free lunch, school supplies, uniforms and free transportation pick up.
RED KAREN – THAILAND
For the 4th year in a row, MEANS has supported the Red Karen Summer English Camp conducted by Peter and Ochie Bangcong New Tribes missionaries in Thailand.
Around 100 Red Karen children attend the annual English camp. The children learn English, Christian songs and lessons from the bible. Through this camp, the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is being shared to children and from the children to their parents.
Many parents have started to inquire about the teaching of Jesus through the English camp.

• Here are my prayers:
- My partners’ steadfastness in prayer and generous giving to keep me serving the Lord.
- More faithful prayer and financial partners, contacts and advocates…perhaps you!
Dear Flor,
I found your book When God Tells You to Rest a huge benefit to myself and several others who were ministering in Thailand with me. I would like to ask if I can buy three of these books from you. I live in the USA. My address is 440 Clayton Rd/ PO Box 327, Silverthorne, CO 80498-0327. Can I pay by check or credit card?
Thank you for your honest reflections and brief chapters that are the perfect size for those in burnout,
