God is amazing! We celebrate His faithfulness for His provision of 1.86 million Baht (S$82,667/US$57,231) to purchase the Harvest Family Center on Oct 8, 2009 and another provision of 793,434 Baht (S$35,264/US$24,413) to renovate the building, build an extra office, a store room, 4 new toilets and some fixtures.
The children in the slum community are streaming in for the feeding program, the weekday tuition program and the Harvest Saturday School. Now we are bursting the seams of the Family Center – more than 70 children from the slum communities and with more coming. God has given us a big dream to build World Harvest Destiny Center, a bigger facility on a nearby piece of land (about 2.5 acre) but this project will take about another 2-3 years to complete.
Meanwhile, we are planning to build a multi-purpose hall on the field just in front of the Harvest Family Center building. This will make space for more children, possibly about 150-200 children to use this facility. This multi-purpose hall can also double up for new projects that we would like to start on a small scale in preparation for the World Harvest Destiny Center.
We hope to start work on this multi-purpose hall in July 2010. The architect projects that it would take about 3-4 months for the building to be completed. We hope to have this hall ready for the launch of our World Harvest Training School in December 2010.
God is on the march as the world is spinning into chaos. May the people of God respond speedily. “Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all the unfortunate. Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the rights of the afflicted and needy.” Proverbs 31:8,9 In a land where the poor are crying out for help, will you arise and help us to help these needy ones? “Your people will volunteer freely in the day of Your power.” Psalm 110.3 May this indeed be the day of His Power.

There is one who scatters, and yet increases all the more, …
The generous man will be prosperous,
and he who waters will himself be watered.
Proverbs 11:24, 25
One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the LORD,
and He will repay him for his good deed. Proverbs 19:17
We are humbled by what God is doing here and we trust that you will partner with us in sharing God's love with the many in these slum communities. Let God and His children arise in love and action and His enemies be scattered!
All for the harvest,
