Teerapat

I am a Thai national. My grandfather, who was an evangelist and preacher, taught me about Christ as I was growing up. When I was fourteen, I trusted Jesus as my Saviour and was baptized. Through a series of events, I finally answered God’s calling to serve Him full-time when I was 24 years old. Shortly after, I attended Gospel Baptist Bible Institute. After graduating, I continued working with Gospel Baptist Church under our missionary pastor Emmanuel Sinoy as the Thai children and youth pastor and driver. Currently we are making plans to branch out of Gospel Baptist Church to start a church for Thai people in one of the nearby villages that doesn’t have a church.

Tiffany

I grew up in a Christian family and always heard about Jesus and Bible stories. When I was four years old, I told my parents I wanted to get saved. That evening, my mom shared with me how to receive Jesus as my personal Saviour. The following day, I was baptized. While in high school, my church had an outreach ministry for Karen and Burmese refugees who started attending our church. I was a part of teaching them English and picking them up for church. God used this time to knit my heart with them and give me a desire to reach the Thai and Burmese people. I spent my last semester of Bible college with the Thai missionary team in Hua Hin, Thailand. While there, I visited the Sinoy family’s ministry in MaeSot. That is when I knew God wanted me to return and serve with them.  After graduating from Hyles-Anderson College in 2013, I began to raise support. In October 2014, I arrived in MaeSot, Tak, Thailand. I have been involved in the church’s children ministries – a Burmese migrant school, children’s home, and children’s Saturday and Sunday school as well as any other church programs going on. On April 15, 2017, my husband, who is on the staff at Gospel Baptist Church, and I were married.

We are serving in MaeSot on the border of Thailand and Myanmar reaching Buddhists and Muslims for Christs through soul winning, discipleship, English Bible Clubs, and church planting.

Teerapat and Tiffany Phaisarnpiwat Prayer Letter: A New Start

Teerapat and Tiffany Phaisarnpiwat Prayer Letter: A New StartI want to thank everyone who has prayed, reached out, and even donated towards my teeth situation. Thankfully, the infection has finally cleared up. At the end of November, I will begin the next step—surgery to replace the bone that was eroded by the infection.

Monsoon season was a bit rough for us this year. We had a lot of torrential rain and flooding, and our church ceiling over the stairs collapsed. We praise the Lord that our landlord repaired the ceiling for us, and we didn’t have to pay for any of the expenses. I also got to witness to the repairmen.

Visiting Speaker

We were blessed with a visit from our friend, Pastor Gideon. He has been a great encouragement and friend to us and our church over the past few years. Every time he is in town, our church enjoys hearing him preach. It had been awhile since the last time Pastor Gideon had visited. We promoted a special service and had a great crowd, along with some salvations. He and his wife started a church in a village right across the border in Myanmar. He has turned the church over to a national pastor, and they have temporarily returned to America.

A New Start

“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.” (Matthew 10:14) Due to several different situations that have occurred, our church is moving locations. During October, we prepared to move. The church youth helped pack, clean, and move everything. The dividing wall that we knocked down to have one big room for our auditorium had to be put back up again. When taking down the church sign, it fell and cut my head. My nephew and another young boy who were helping asked me if I was going to give thanks to God for my injury. Our previous Wednesday night Bible study was about giving thanks in everything, even in bad situations. I immediately told the boys yes. I am thankful for a lesson in safety and that the wound wasn’t deep enough to need stitches. God used this situation to reinforce our Bible study and allowed me to be an example to them.

Temporarily, we are meeting at our home for church services. We are hoping to lease some land to build a building for our church. Please pray for wisdom, for us to find a new place for our church, and for us to be able to make an impact in the new area we move to. The blessing is that since we’ve started meeting in our home, a family that hadn’t come in nearly a year has begun coming again, and we have had visitors. In Sunday school, the children have been learning about Jesus’ disciples and how to be a disciple of Him. Two weeks in a row, a girl brought a friend, just like they’ve been learning to do.
Christmas

We have excitedly begun to plan our Christmas program and activities that can be held whether we find a new place before Christmas or have to celebrate the birth of our Saviour at our house. Christmas is one of the biggest highlights of our church’s year. Being in a transition period, we probably won’t be able to go as big as other years, but as one of my wife’s favorite hymns says, “Little is much when God is in it!” Please pray that we may share the greatest Gift ever given to many during the Christmas season.

God bless,

Teerapat and Tiffany Phaisarnpiwat
