Today we awoke in Ubon after a late night of church planting and a 2 hour drive. We headed to Non-Prassert. Non Prassert is were the ministry of the Mercy Foundation and Mekong Evangelical Church (Baptist) are located. The service began at 10am and we arrived sharply at 10:10. We walked in to a room of about 200 believers (of less then 5 years) worshiping with nothing being held back. It was an awesome service. We shared the drama, sang, and preached. They fed us a great spread of food (mostly identifiable but all good).
Sunday afternnoon we loaded the bus and headed for another village Don-He. This is a village that actually had a church about five years ago but the leadership left and the church all but folded. There was one family that continued to pray for God to bring a church to their village. They even had a church building that had been built years ago. We set a huge stage up and had a blowout service. This village has about 700 homes and the largest Buddha Statue you have ever seen. There has been a guy in training at the seminary here at Mekong Bible Seminary that has been discipled over the last 4 years and will be Pastoring the plant. We had a massive turnout with a similar service clearly storying through God's plan of creation, the fall, crucifixion, and restoration of man. Each person who came got there first Bible.
