This weekend a number of ladies from Baptist churches in N Ireland will commence their 'SUMMIT' short term mission trip with us to Thailand. Their first port of call will be at the New Tribes Mission HQ and missionary training centre in England. After a short 'orientation' there we will fly from Manchester to Bangkok.
Our purpose is for the team to glean as much as possible about the needs, challenges and blessings of missionary life in Thailand and that this information will impact them and others who hear of their experiences. They will of course be faced with a very different language, culture and religious system. Some of the problems of presenting the gospel in this amazing country will become obvious. They will also see the beauty of the country, eat the most delightful food imaginable and enjoy interacting with the friendly Thai people.
Pray for this little team. As we travel around, visiting missionaries in tribal villages and meeting with support personnel we want to bring encouragement to those we meet as we fellowship with them and hear of their work.

More about this when we get back - if not before.
