Still in Thailand… and Invaded by kids…

Praises & Prayers

  • Prayer Requests: 
    • Thailand Visa (UPDATE): The government of Thailand has issued us an extension through September to try and obtain a long-term visa. Unfortunately all the options we have tried so far require us to leave the country to apply for the Visa, and if we leave we are not allowed to re-enter Thailand at this time. So, would you join us in praying that we can faithfully follow Jesus’ leading and that He would open a path for securing a Visa so we can settle in and get back to ministry.
    • Financial Support: Due to various circumstances, including COVID, several of our partners have not been able to continue partnering with us over the past several months. We had intended to return to Colorado this summer to build our partnership team. However, due to COVID all our plane tickets have been canceled and we are unable to leave. So we are focusing on growing our team from here. Please join us in praying for God’s provision and guidance that we would reach people who have not heard of the ministry work we do and who are passionate to join our support team. 
    • The girls begin 6th and 4th grades this year which are both big transitions. Please join us in praying that they would rise to the occasion before them, make additional friends this year, and discover ways to press into Jesus and bring His love and light wherever they go. 
  • Praises for the Moores:
    • We are officially moved into our new home and getting settled. We are grateful for a place that is less expensive and lovely and comfortable. 
    • The girls’ school has been cleared by the government to begin classes on campus next week with safety and health precautions in place. We are hopeful that this transition will go well and that this will be successful. 
    • The Lord has opened up doors for Pahtyana to join an online writers’ community where she will have a chance to network, learn and be challenged in her giftings and ministry. We’re praising the Lord also, for some upcoming writing and artistic opportunities that will give her several avenues for online ministry. 
    • We have found a new Missionary Health Insurance option which will further help us to reduce our expense in this season.

Praises & Prayers

  • Prayer Requests: 
    • Thailand Visa: Please join us in praying that the Lord would work out our visa situation before the end of July. Clinton’s visa expired last week but we are not allowed to travel out of Thailand and back with anew visa due to COVID travel restrictions. Thailand has kindly extended a grace period through the end of July. However, we are praying for a solution so we can obtain a new visa that allows us to live and work here. 
    • Financial Support: Due to various circumstances, including COVID, several of our partners have not been able to continue partnering with us over the past several months. We had intended to return to Colorado this summer to build our partnership team. However, due to COVID all our plane tickets have been canceled and we are unable to leave. So we are focusing on growing our team from here. Please join us in praying for God’s provision and guidance that we would reach people who have not heard of the ministry work we do and who are passionate to join our support team. 
    • Moving House: In an effort to offset some of the deficit in our support, we are adjusting what we can and moving to a different house that is less in rent. Please pray that the move will go smoothly and that we’ll settle easily into our new home. 
  • Praises for the Moores:
    • Sowing Seeds: God’s given us the opportunity to invest in a dear friend who we discipled in Kenya who lost her job due to COVID and is now opening a clothing stall to provide for her family. We’re excited to see how the Lord will work through her there.  
    • New House: We’ve found a sweet little place to move to and are excited for this new chapter. 
    • End of the School Year: The girls finished school well and are excited to have a couple of months off. 
    • Jolie’s Birthday: We are thrilled to celebrate our Enjolie who turns 9 on Wednesday, June 10th.

Would you join us…

Published on by The Moore FourLeave a comment

Dear Prayer Partners,

The challenge we currently face in Thailand can at times seem overwhelming. Especially, when you consider that only 1 in 1,000 people in this country have experienced the love of Jesus Christ. In the midst of this reality though, we have begun to see the Lord moving in our lives and the ministry work here in Chiang Mai. We believe that “GREATER THINGS ARE YET TO COME” and we look forward to sharing testimonies of what God is doing in this beautiful country.

Recently however, we have discovered that several of our financial support partners are no longer partnering with us. This happens from time to time and as always, we continue to be grateful for the opportunity to have been in partnership with them. Unfortunately, we are now looking at a $1,950 a month deficit, which is not sustainable. Would you join us in praying that God will grow our team by raising up others who fall in love with the vision of “making Disciples of all nations”.

We as a family believe with all of our hearts that God still wants us to continue with the ministry work here in Thailand. It is with confidence and faith that we plan to move forward trusting that God will provide the resources necessary to continue this work. That being said, this ministry work isn’t possible without an amazing team like you supporting us every step of the way.

We are actively asking the Lord to connect us with people who have a passion for seeing Disciples made of all nations and who are looking for an opportunity to partner with Him in this work around the world. Greater things are coming here in Thailand and we are eager to expand our team to support what the Lord will be unfolding. If you would like to find out more about how you can partner with us click here.

Please take a few minutes to watch our quick update below where we share more specifically about our financial situation, a surprising testimony from a neighborhood bbq and how you can help us spread the word.

Let us know if you have any questions, suggestions or feedback about growing our support team.

Thank you!

Praises & Prayers

  • Praises for the Moores:
    • God provided a place for us to live just 10 mins from the girls’ school. 
    • He provided a car before we were even looking for one and gave us the wonderful opportunity and honor to bless the missionary family who was selling it!

  • Prayer Requests: 
    • That we each would finish well as we close out this chapter of our lives. 
    • That God would give us strength and joy as we sort, clean and pack up everything. It’s a tiring process no matter how many times we’ve done it before and we’re feeling a bit weary and stretched between two places. 
    • Jolie’s birthday is coming up June 10th and we’ll be celebrating it a bit early with her school friends. Please pray that she would feel deeply loved and celebrated in the midst of the transition. 
    • That God would work out all of the various financial needs that come with an international move, resettling and setting up a home again. 
    • Lastly, that God would make His faithful presence and plans known for those we’ve done ministry with and lived life with in Kenya as we transition to Thailand.
