Mae Chaem Outreach












ZOE goes on many outreaches, but the one we just held in Mae Chaem was our largest one day outreach yet. Everyone at ZOE was involved, the ZOE children, Thai staff, missionaries and ministry students. It was a full day! The day began at 5:00 am with a huge crew of us blowing up hundreds of balloons to decorate the 15 game booths. With last minute prep, set up, and prayer, the outreach began at 8:00 am. There was a children's program in the morning, a human trafficking awareness meeting in the afternoon and an adult evening program. We estimated approximately 1600 children/adults attended the children's program and about 1100 adults/teens attended the evening program. The programs were filled with worship, special songs, body worship, hula, testimonies, dramas, speakers, raffle, a Christian movie star, and most importantly, the sharing of the Gospel. I was videoing when an altar call was given in the Children's program. Many raised their hands and prayed with our ministry students. Witnessing this incredible sight, my eyes filled with tears and I said to myself, "This is why I came to Thailand."
