Update from the Dwight & Mary Kay Martin in Thailand
December 2024
Merry Christmas from the staff of the eSTAR Foundation 
 Dear Norm
 
As we reach the end of 2024 and reflect on the precious gift of Jesus this Christmas season, let's rejoice for the thousands of Thai people who have received His gift of salvation this year. Thanks to your support and the dedication of hundreds of church planters from the Association of Free Churches in Thailand, who have traveled countless miles of streets, roads, and lanes, these individuals have been reached. We thank God for these selfless church planters who deeply love their people and are willing to give their time to seek them out.

This year, as of December 2, a total of 23,416 people have responded to the Gospel, and 10,039 individuals have been baptized. Additionally, we have established 2,012 village churches and 21 district churches, resulting in an additional 9,447 church members. Notably, 40% of those who responded to the Gospel have become church members.

Since 2017, the Association of Free Churches in Thailand (AFT) has witnessed 89,009 people respond to the Gospel, with over 27,000 (30%) being baptized. We've established 6,275 village churches and 49 district churches, bringing our total membership to 36,017. For the latest figures, visit https://estar.ws/AFT

We have successfully established a village church in every village in the provinces of Phichit, Phetchabun, and Nakorn Sawan. By the end of 2026, we aim to reach all villages in the provinces of Khon Kaen, Chaiyapum, Phitsanulok, and Kamphang Phet.

This is just the beginning. With the Lord's provision, particularly in the form of gas money, we will continue spreading the Gospel to additional provinces. Our dedicated church planters are ready to go; they just need the means to travel. Our army of believers is constantly growing, with new believers in one province becoming the force to reach the next. It is truly awe-inspiring to witness this expansion.

Thank you for your unwavering prayers and support. With your help, we are transforming lives and spreading the Gospel across Thailand, making an extraordinary impact together.

Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year
 

Blessings,

 

Dwight & Mary Kay Martin

AFT church planters sharing the love of Jesus this Christmas season
Many of our ministry partners may not know that we are self-supported missionaries, raising funds for our personal expenses separately from ministry expenses. End-of-year giving is vital for us to balance out the leaner months. If you are able we would be deeply grateful if you could consider blessing us with a year-end gift. Your generosity makes all the difference. Thank you!
