Chiang Mai Reunion 

Back in 2013, shortly after we moved to Thailand, I (Steve) attended a men's retreat. As we finished, the leader suggested we join one of the men's groups that met for coffee and prayer weekly. I began meeting with a group at "The Coffee Bus" (see picture above). 

More than ten years later, that same group is still meeting. A number of the guys were on home assignment in their passport countries when I visited, but Neiko and Todd were 'holding down the fort' at a new coffee shop. Ten years has brought lots of changes to our lives but relationships survive and even thrive through the test of time. Pray for my friend, Todd (wearing a ball cap) as he navigates a mysterious case of vertigo while carrying on his work teaching people of various ethnicities how to worship God creatively among 'their people'. 

Prayer Requests:

1. Pray for ongoing fruit from our trainings in the Philippines, both the Entrust equipping women's training and the pastoral counseling training with the Bethany pastoral couples. 

2. Pray for me (Steve) as I step into a role helping facilitate a high school boys group at our church. 

3. Pray for Bethany Global University as they adjust to the changing times and move to a fully online academic program (with a continuing global internship year). 

Serving Christ with You, Steve and Alberta
