Thank you for your earnest prayer for Thailand UBF Discipleship Conference which was held October 29-30 at Thailand UBF center. We thank God for richly blessing this conference with His full grace and life giving words through the messengers. 

First day- opening message by M. Peter Lee; “Preach The Gospel To All Nations" (Mark 13:10). 

M. Peter came to know Christ in high-school. Later, while attending college in Japan, he met a Korean missionary who helped him grown up as a disciple of Jesus at Nagasaki UBF. God blessed him to establish a missionary family with M. Mary Lee at Nagasaki UBF. Then his family was sent to Thailand and has been co-working with Thailand UBF ministry learning about the God of Thailand for about the last six years. 

Now they are going to be resent to Japan on November 22. His family has a clear vision to pioneer Fujisawa campus ministry beginning from 2017. He prays that God may use his family to raise one Abraham and Sarah among Japanese students by 2021. May God continue to bless both Fujisawa UBF ministry and Thailand UBF to be fruitful for His name's sake.

There was a special violin performance by Anna and Arada (daughters of Dr. Mongkol). There also  was a special lecture entitled "Bible News" by Dr.Jang Byun Jo (he is a senior missionary to Thailand and outside lecturer). Through his lecture we all were refreshed and renewed with an eager desire to read the Bible diligently. 

Second day morning- GBS based on 2Kings 13 and the main lecture "You should have struck the ground five or six times" given by Shep. Luke. Through the message we all were greatly encouraged to have faith in God and newly made decisions to challenge ourselves to experience God's mighty power and vision for world mission.

We thank God for blessing Shep. Luke’s deep message more than ever before and for growing him as a good messenger for Thai mission. We really thank God for giving us new direction to have faith in God and for encouraging us to overcome our human limits through His word as if we struck the ground five or six times by faith.
