Oneness Growth in Northern Thailand

I returned from a short-term missionary trip in Chiang Mai, Thailand on Monday. I had been invited by Logos Communications, International (LCI) chairman, N.Wayne Nigh to join him in a barnstorming trip from southern Thailand to Northern Thailand into Burma.
Along with three day seminars for local pastors in Korat (So Thailand) and in Burma (Tachilek), we ministered in 6 different churches thoughout Thailand while on a compressed schedule. During the second half of the schedule Steve Yadon, pastor from Pocatello, Idaho joined us.
Those that attended our seminars represent hundreds of believers, from those in Kohn Buri, Korat, Tahkham, Doi-Saket, Hu-Ya, Mae-Sai and the Burmese border city of Tachilek. LCI also distributed free New Testaments w/Psalms and Proverbs in the Lahu dialect of Burmese and books written by Br Nigh translated into the local dialects on the nature of (the Christian) God.
The mission of LCI is to reach, teach and disciple national pastors to reach their own. LCI has also built a state of the art conference center in Chiang Mai. The Logos Conference Center (LCC) is completely paid for. It is a two story building with apartments and dorm rooms on the second floor with separate male and female showers. The first floor has a large kitchen facility classrooms providing seating for 100-300 with an additional small classroom adjacent to it.
It was a privilege to teach and preach with elder Br Nigh, a long-time Oneness (former UPC) missionary. The doctrine he preaches is apostolic in every sense of the word.

I can testify first-hand that the Kingdom is being preached in Thailand and Burma.

Even with these wonderful things happening, politics never seems to end:
National pastors in Bangkok in communication with UPC missionaries from the states have been told to not to have anything to do with LCI, LCC or with the works being done in Chiang Mai. I heard this from the Nighs. Those in Hazelwood that are hindering growth will receive their reward. IN SPITE of the spintering tactics by UPC FMD HQ, the church of Jesus Christ in Thailand is growing. I thought we were "in this" together, but I digress.

Br and Sis Nigh have served the Lord honorably over the years. Both are now in their 80's and have raised up a generation of National preachers for the name of Jesus Christ of which I am an eyewitness.

Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition!
