Dear Prayer Partners,

Thank you once again for your faithful prayer support of our ministry and missionaries.  I have just returned from CLC's Quadrennial International Council meeting in Bangkok , Thailand and I am pleased to let you know that God has moved mightily in our midst during this last four year period. CLC was able to start a new work in 8 countries and to start 51 new bookstores worldwide in that period.  Praise the Lord for His faithfulness and we are so grateful to you as ministry partners that the gospel is being made available through Christian literature in more places that ever before.

One particular prayer request that I come back from Thailand with is for the country of Thailand and for CLC Thailand in particular.  Though Thailand is an oppressive place spiritually with Buddhism as the national religion and spirit houses everywhere, the pervasiveness of the global sex trade and associated problems was shocking and disturbing to me in ways that I had not expected.   Thailand has both a huge bi-sexual and gay population as well as being the world leader in sex trafficking and slavery of young girls.  Pray with me that God would show a way through to his people in such a dark place.  In addition, CLC is in need of a new leader for our work that will speak English and can lead the team forward as God shows the way.
