| Namthok Baptist
Church |
| Pastor Cee (is brother to Yota) and his wife have been at
Namthok for six years. There are about 15 families in his village. The
government has relocated another village to Bro. Cee's location with about
60 additional famillies. This opens up tremendous opportunities. |

Dr. Tom Wallace alone with Jim Westerfield and Tim
Lindsey sing for the church service. Later in the service Dr.Wallace
will preach. |
|
|
People begin to gather for the church
services |
|
|
One of the youth groups sings for the
services prior to Bro. Wallace preaching. We continually strive to keep
the work of the Lord before the kids of the home. We accomplish this
by having them participate in the other church works.

|
| Barn Cee Baptist
Church (Four House Baptist Church) |
|
|
This is one of the villages that were
displaced by the government. These villages, like many others are looked
upon as squatters and can be relocated at any time. Ending up on the
side of the highway and because there were only four families the name
has stayed with them. |
|
|
Here you see the property that was purchased
and the new church building that has almost been completed. Normally
property is not bought for the people, the Lord sent the funds. We will
only provide 80% of the money necessary to build a church building.
The people of the village have to provide the rest. They are not allowed
to borrow the 20 % and this is a tremendous amount for these people
to have to come up with. We feel it necssary that he people have a part
in the construction of the church. |
|
|
The church membership always enjoys having visitors come to the church and always prepare a meal. |
|
Bro. Horn visits with some men of the during the construction phase
of the church. |
|
| Bokok Baptist Church |
|
| |
|
|
Bro. Horn with Pastor Yota and his wife, ArMont
and Mrs. Horn and a lady form the church that ends up in most pictures.
Bro. Yota has been with our ministry for 7 years and the church is doing
very well . Most all the churches have children at the home. |
|
|
|
Members stand in front of the church building, waiting
for the services to begin. Bro. Horn has preached here numerous times,
the highlight of the service begins as Bro. Horn makes his way from
the front door to the pulpit. The floor is bamboo and sinks about 6
inches as Bro. Horn crosses the floor. |
| |
|
|
This is a picture of the pastor's house. Because the property the church
sat on was too small for the new church building . Bro. Yota gave his
property to the church and he and his family moved into the old church
building. |
| |
|
|
|
This is the new church building that
was provided by Pembina Valley Baptist Church in Canada, Pastor Mike
Sullivant. |

the 2006 Mission's Conference. |
|
|
Those men that attended the 2006 Mission's Conference
come together with the church membership to have a prayer of dedication
for the new building. |
Miss Emerald and staff member Goey and MeMont play
and sing for this time of dedication. |
|
| Galaire Baptist |
|
| |
|
|
Pastor Argal has been with ministry six years. Bro. Argal has been at
Galaire Baptist for 2 Years. |
|
|
| The village of Galaire straddles the ridge of a mountain.
You must drive 5 km into a very high mountain to get to the village. At
night you think you can reach out and touch the stars. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
Pastor Argal's wife Nolot works with
a couple of different groups from the church. Bro. Argal and Nolot have
always been a blessing each time that they share their gift of music |

After the service the church gathers
for a photo and a meal |

|
Some of those that were baptized after the service
|
|
| Hoel Soan Baptist Church |
|
| |
|
|
|
Hoel Soan Baptist Church is the first church that we stated. The village was full of demon worship and has taken the toll on a many a preacher. We can see the hand of the Lord working with Bro. Admon. He has been with us for 9 months.
. |
A few of those, that came form Hoel Soan. |
| |
|
|
|
This is the first building that was
constructed in our ministry. A dear brother from Mesquite Texas provided
the funds. |
| |
|
|
|
| Once the building was constructed we saw a four fold increase
in attendance. We only provide 80% of the funds necessary to build the
building. The 20% is a tremendous burden on the people, but we feel it
vital that the people see themselves as being part of the church. Note
: They may not borrow the money !! |
| |
|
|
|
Baptisms are always a big deal, (nerver greater than salvation) and the church member ship enjoys a meal after the baptism service. |

| Hoel Mai Sai Baptist and Arduke
Baptist Church |
| |
|
|
Pastor Arlum has been with us for about a year and
is currently enrolled in Nongloam Bible Center. Pastor Arlum is pastor
of Arduke Baptist Church as well. Pray with us about a Man of God to
oversee this work full time. |
| |
|
|
|
|
This church first met in 6 x 8 foot bamboo building.
Aunt Martha Kemal in loving memory of her husband,(Uncle Fred as we
all knew him) build this church building. |
| |
|
|
Some of the members stand in front of the church |
| |
|
|
|
|
Any time that the opportunity presents itself we
take the children that they might minister to the churches as well.
This is a blessing to the church folks and shows our young people the
work that is laid out before them (their responsibility). |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
Folks gather for a baptismal service.
Depending on the time of the year, the creek must be blocked up to complete
the second part of the great commission. |
