Attention Prayer Warriors
Thank you so much for praying for our team during this time of outreach in Bangkok, Thailand. It has been vital for us to be surrounded in prayer as we have been heading into the bars in the Red Light District of Bangkok. Amazing things have been happening and I wanted to give yall an update!

Tomorrow, September 26th we will be having lunch with a girl name Jan. She is 32 years old and is the accountant for the P.P. Beer Bar. I met her 2 weeks ago, and over the course of the past 2 weeks my team and I have built quite and amazing friendship with her. Anyways, she invited us to go have lunch with her tomorrow, and she is treating! I ask that you lift us in prayer at 1:00p.m. as we meet with her. Pray that the Lord opens doors for us to share with her what we are all about!

More great news is that two of the girls we have been spending our time with in the bars, Kung and Giftsy, have decided to visit “The Well” with us on Monday September 29th at 12:00pm. Tonight, after we showed them a video of a girl at “The Well” telling her story we saw something happen with them. We saw to beautiful girls light up with hope that they might be able to escape the sex trade world. SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pray that nothing keeps us from getting these girls to “The Well” with us on Monday.

I also ask that you be praying for my new Thai friend Apple. She is 23 years old and works at the P.P. Beer Bar. She was the first girl I met in the Bars and my heart broke for her then and is still breaking for her now. She is a beautiful young girl (which makes her very popular) that doesn’t enjoy doing what she does. I’m planning on showing her the video of the girl, at “The Well”, telling her story tomorrow night. I had planned on playing pool with her tonight, and sharing the video with her but a “customer” got to her before I had the chance. Please pray for her protection, and pray that our obedience in planting the seeds in her life will spark some kind of hope in her.

Just incase you do not know what “The Well” is: It is a ministry here in Thailand that works on getting girls out of the bars and into a safe environment. They have 2 buildings and have about 60 girls working for them now. The girls who leave the bar come to “The Well” and are provided jobs (making purses, jewelry, cards), school, they are taught English, they are taught about God, and they are paid salary and hourly according to the number of people in their family.
