Day 3 Chiang Khum and Paklang (Nan Province)

2005-08-18T01:36:00.000-07:00

Day 3 (Sunday)

Travel to Hope Chiang Kham Sanctuary (5 mins drive from Pastor’s house)

Rehearse our skit

We had put together a loving mime entitled, “hands”. It is a mime about share about Jesus’ love. We had practiced quite a bit b4 coming. Jesus was none others than Steve…. Our Thai friends wondered why we had a very smiley Jesus indeed… who smiled while being “crucified”!haha Steve!

Had a short breakfast

All kinds of Kuehs displayed plus soy bean milk.

Joined the Sunday church prayer meeting followed by another breakfast

Pastor Chiang Khumwas worshipping enthusiastically. He smiled a lot and was really full of joy. He shared enthusiastically at the prayer meeting! Again, every thing was impromptu – our team were asked if anyone would share a testimony on the spot? My shy team members looked down.. Though I am shy too, as team leader, I have to show the example hence I took the chance to thank the Church and Ps Ben for encouraging us. Grace encouraged the church with her short testimony of how God blessed her when she gave to building funds.

Actual church service started

The church service started… on our right were a row of high school students. The new believer who sells the soy bean was here with his whole family. He had 2 tall and handsome sons whom we did not see yesterday. It’s a joy to see his whole family attending church early morning

Oh boy, the whole church was in heaven… we saw those we met on the stage who were playing for the church. Ps Ben, Pastor of Chiang Khum, the worship leader (a very cheerful brother too whom accompanied us yesterday in some visits) and 2 back up singers. They sang and danced with their might, there is just this sincere simple joy exuberating from the church! God be exalted! I saw the human “tutu” train formed by the high school students,… a rare sight indeed. They were running around the sanctuary, We used to do that in Hope Spore a few years ago,,, Hope BKK also… Now guess it is great to see people worshipping God with “tutu” train jog. Team mates all agreed that we ought to learn to worship God freely and joyfully like Hope Chiang Khum.

Had lunch with the church people and presented our token of appreciation to Hope Chiang Kham (love offerings)

Went to the land bought by Hope Chiang Kham… which a new sanctuary will be built (cost about S$40,000), Steve was great… he helped to lead the team. We walked around that piece of wasted land, praying that it will no longer be wasted again but bless many lives when the church is built there. Steve gathered us back and led in a closing prayers. It reminded us we prayed for Nexus too and wrote our pre-believing friends’ name on the cement before the renovation work. At this point we bid farewell to Ju and Pom, our translators.

Next Lap - drive towards Nan Province ( a few hours ride through the mountains, 121 Km away)

Winding and steep roads through the mountains. Ps Ben, we saluted you for driving us over the tedious terrain. Just the changing of vehicle gear over different gradient could drive people crazy.. at every bend, Ps Ben would carefully slow down his vehicle.

We enjoyed singing throughout the whole journey … sorry not we but the sisters. Gelene,
Pei Shan and myself are (for me is “was’) from the choir. Harmonising the songs and singing in parts were really enjoyable… our voices kept Ps Ben awake.. haha.. not to forget, we snacked a lot too throughout.

Arrive at house of pastor of Hope Paklang in Pua district. Meet Pastor Tut and Kate (our next interpretor)

Met Ps Tut for the first time and our to-be-translator for the next 2 days, Kate. Surprised – Ps Tut is 29 yrs old and he is already pastoring a church (with few centres). Mark and Steve thought. “what were I doing when I was 29?” and Jun Ming said “pressure pressure….”

Pastor from Paklang is the leader over another Hmong village.

Had dinner with Paklang Pastor, Pastor Tut and Kate

They had some nice longgans planted themselves,,, bigger than what you could get in Spore, of course, freshly plucked and fresh. Pastor Tut and Kate were staying overnight with us in Pastor Paklang’s house. We had a great challenge… the family has only 1 bathroom and the whole family were queuing up to use the bathroom. Felt bad again that the host family has to wait long to use the bathroom.

Special Evening Meeting with Paklang Church people

Pastor from Paklang had specially arranged a session for us to meet the church people all form the village. We busied ourselves preparing to lead praise and worship and share testimonies. Another surprises, people starting coming and they were least of what we expected…. Housewives (mostly)n and husband coming with their kids. They were all Hmong hilltribes who has settled own in Paklang village for a long time. We were worried if our praise and worship would minister to them… were our songs too “pop” for them? Not too usual condition for a praise and worship session I thot….. with noise from kids and lots of fidgeting as well as a lazy dog that strolled across the hall as when it felt like it. Funny huh… we felt inadequate to lead this session. Thank God, Pei Shan, Gelene and Steve did not freak out. They led (doesn’t matter the language and culture barriers)! Gelebe shared testimony of healing of God for her Mum and her conversion stories. Jun Ming too, shared his conversion story for the first time in the trip…and after that, a man responded Ps Tut’s encouragement to share his story to us!

That was followed by an extended prayer time for the church and the people. People rised up to be prayed by us… even praying I n proxy for the people. I was burdened to pray for the kids and the children’s ministry in Hope Paklang… so many children here and they need God. Towards the end, I was prompted to pray for a girl who has a swollen right eyes. This to me sounds like what Jesus was doing isn’t it? Sharing and praying for many people who came forward to him! Wonderful God, for you to teach me this!

Rest at Pastor Paklang house with joy (most of us din bathed)

Background

Hope Church Nan Province has only at least 2 centres (exact number I am not sure) that I know of. One is Hope Paklang and the other is Hope Nan.

Aids claim many lives

2005-06-26T00:53:00.000-07:00

2 articles i just read:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/4317019.stm
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4621365.stm

First article - As i read this article and many similar articles about Aids conditions in Africa, it really pains my heart to see that many lost their lives cos of Aids.

The second is on how the raised funds for Tsunamis does not go to the poorest but to the richer instead.

The South Africa trip has awakened my heart somehow to the needs of many poorer nations. I was also saddened by the news that a Hope member from Joburg has passed away cos of sickness. I wish one day being able to go and serve the poor and victimised people.

As Jesus has prophesied that there will be famines, wars and diseases in the last days,
the results of the fallen world...what are we to do in these days? In our best ability, let's do something, can we? My quiet time is also on the Book of Revelation. I read this with much interest. The initial chapters described the churches in End Times. In fact, we are in this time now. It was a reflective time of the kind of Christian I am... God is saying to focus both on deeds as well as heart. God wants a church exceling in deeds and heart for God! Only a strong church consisting on sincere believers will be able to bring the Hope of God to the suffering people. What was assuring is again what Ps Ben said - the final outcome is Victory for people of God as in last chap of Revelation

Was great time lunching with Thomas. I could understand from his sharing on his experience in South Africa in those years that he tried to start a church there. His team is on fire for God and did everything to reach many Africans. There were those breaking time many left church cos of a misunderstanding... its where God taught the team real humility and reliance on God. I seem to observe the ways of God among all teams out for church planting, whether Team Lima, Santiago, Nairobi...There has to be a breaking time which God teach us about total reliance on God against human wisdom and strength.

This happens so that all glory could go to God for anything we possibly could achieve.
I guess I am also going through this. I am still learning... in hard way really.

Today's Student service was refreshing. It brings me back to the days where I was with the Youth group. Vibrant and full of energy.

Has an interesting encounter.

While walking up to the auditorium, a girl called me... probably 18 or 18 years old. She asked me if I do remember her. She said she came to a care group as a visitor in Bishan salvation army a few years ago where i was in charged. She asked her if i do remember her. Frankly i could vaguely recall her face. She said she is in Tertiary group now.

While seated, i felt a sense of thanksgiving.. the days in Student group wasn't wasted. There were times when I was discouraged in the Student group. Now God spoke in my heart... lives changed because of the work of God thru us. People may not respond there and then, but God does use us to sow a seed in their hearts. I also attended the "Friends of Vietnam" meeting and met a girl whom I cared for during her secondary school years... she came to find out about missions and she is a grown up and now in adult group! This shows how old i am :P She is keen to go and serve God in missions. Again this was really an encouragement!

As we are faithful, He uses us. We dont know how He uses us but we know He will,
His ways are higher than ours.

Remember
The "D" and "A" of the acronym PDA i wrote previously
D= divine opportunities God lay for us to touch people
A= active obedience to God's given divine opp!

*dorr* (younger sis)

not too good either

2005-06-19T06:38:00.000-07:00

Choco left, while comforting my sis, tears were in my eyes. The images of him running around in the house, licking my hands, stepping unto my laps.. holding him around my eyes.. and now he's gone. The whole family was affected. Mum's eyes were swollen. Sis cried... I guessed the attachment to Choco is strong. Now Choco will be forever in our memory.

Perhaps writing blog is a release of your feelings yar? Now let me drop a few words here..
There are things which were upsetting.. so I tried disciplining my mind to think of all the praise worthy things.. God wants me to give thanks just as what the prophecy given to me a month plus ago. After praying in the spirit on my way back home, I was uplifted much. Praise God!

I had dinner with dad and my brothers and sis-in-laws. Its Father's day... I have asked my Dad for dinner earlier this week without realising its Father's day. Dad has lost a little weight compared to my last visit. I hope i could show more care and concern for Dad, i hope he will know God, but it seems his heart is still distant to God though not hostile......

Talk abt last week.
Its packed with Go Forth conference. It was refreshing to hear the Word of God through speakers like Ps Edmund Chan, James Taylor III (surely u guys are familiar with Hudson Taylor, the missionary to China). The messages from these speaker stirred my heart.. certainly the urgency and the need of missions to many nations. Yet Isa 6 says God seats on the throne... He is in Control of the World. The world is moving by his timing. I feel overwhelmed by this need, yet being affirmed that God is in control and the end of the story is definite victory.

Personally i was asking how important sharing the Gospel is in my life? Many things that Ps Edmund preached... one thing was his comments that churches are busy, busy, busy, busy... yet not fruitful. Christians programmes piled up and yet the impact to souls are ...I know i give excuses in my silent heart many times for not reaching pre-believers, but what i heard God saying is... I just havent see the urgency of the need and thus i did not make effort to share with anyone about Jesus.

PDA - Personal relationship with Christ, Divine opportunity and Active Obedience = sums up the exhortation of God. There are many stuff which was stirring for those who came for the conference. I have placed an order for the mp3 of the plenary sessions.. feel free to borrow in 3 weeks time.

I had also the first driving lesson after many weeks break. I was reluntant and unmotivated... just the thought of how Mr Sai would start criticising and putting me down... i just dont feel like continuing... nonetheless, still must go ahead. Prayed to God to help me... prayed that Mr Sai will be more encouraging. Guess what... it did help... he was friendly and helpful... yes God... what a good way to start my lessons. Tmr i will go for circuit driving... I need to be there before 7am. Hopefully it will be good cos the sacrifice is huge.... (my sleep).

Looking forward this week... I know I need his strength more.
Elaine
