April is a very special month for me. I was saved on April 17, 1966. In 51 years, I have never gotten over the fact that God would rescue a sinner like me.
Our 21st container of Scriptures was loaded and shipped this month. Bearing Precious Seed provided 1,380 boxes of Scriptures, making a total of 341,274 Scriptures in 5 different languages. Please pray for the safe arrival of the container and for the government fees to be low. I am hoping to be there when the shipment arrives at the BEST Warehouse in Rangsit, Thailand.
I will leave May 31 for Thailand. The following six weeks, I will be in several different churches and will be preaching in conferences in three nations of Southeast Asia. The first two weeks of July, I am scheduled to teach at Chil Chil Baptist College in Nagaland, India. I will have the opportunity to preach to several hundred college students. Pray that they will learn the biblical principles of establishing New Testament Baptist churches. The greatest thing we can do is to train national believers to reach their own people. That is local church missions. Several visiting pastors and friends from America will travel to join me in Thailand. It is always good when others come and see what God is doing in Southeast Asia.
Kendall Cobb, our printer in Thailand, has informed me that the leather Thai Bibles may not be available in time for the Bible conference the first week in June. I’m praying that they will be completed and delivered to the BEST Warehouse while I am there in the country.
There are 900,000,000 souls in Southeast Asia. BEST has funded over $20,000 in the last 30 days to insure that Bible-less believers can have their very own copy of God’s Word. As more people are being reached with the Gospel, we cannot keep up with the demand for Bibles.
Please pray for Dr. Curtis Hall and his family as they travel to raise personal support and continue to raise funds for BEST Ministry.
We love you and thank God for your faithfulness to pray for our work. Thank you for your support and for allowing us to provide the Word of God free of charge to Bible-less believers in other nations.
Into all the world,
Bob Bowen
