The Persing Family Missionaries to Thailand

 

 

 


Greetings!
 
 
Easter is a time of change. JESUS went to Heaven so the HOLY SPIRIT could come to us; to be with us! Thank you Jesus for the change you bring in our lives. The weather is changing from winter to spring. What changes are happening in your life?  What changes do you need to make in your life? Changes can be exciting, advantageous, necessary, hard, and even sometimes a bit scary. But, knowing you are doing what GOD wants you to do, gives you confidence, assurance, peace, and a willingness to make changes. We are experiencing some exciting changes in our lives. We will be experiencing changes for the next few months to come, especially in our family. Read-on to find out more about what God is doing in our lives.

Corey and Pastor Joshua took a quick weekend trip by bus to visit a small FM church in Chiayaphum 10 hours away.  They were pleased with the status of the church and hopeful for its continued growth.

The 2nd Semester for Corey and Ikaiasha is half over. They are looking forward to Spring break in April. 

Connie has had a relapse with bronchitis due to the increase in seasonal air pollution. Connie is  still on doctor ordered minimal activity. 
 

Chiang Mai Free Methodist Church

 

For Easter today, the church held an earlier morning worship service and then headed to the reservoir for a time of food and fellowship.


 


Grace International School (GIS)
 
 
   
Continue to pray for Grace International School as the administration works through the details of court case verdict which involves a probable move from its current location. Hopefully, this move will not need to occur until summer.

The princess Anna!
 
For Ministry day the Ikaiasha's Senior Class put on a Carnival for the elementary children. She was dressed a Anna from Disney's Frozen. Her Carnival games involve ice for the idea of ice in this tropical climate.



Ikaiasha and Corey made their last ministry trip to a Karen Tribal village in Omkoi. The GIS Sports Leadership 2 class spent the weekend serving about 100 children at the sports camp. Fun and games and a dunking booth for all.
