The Centre, Thailand
Changing a nation through the next generation
Ae Accepts Christ
Ae had an appointment to go out to dinner
with Rachel last night. She came an
hour earlier and asked to talk to Opal.
She had spent the whole day at work
looking on the community website at
different religions, including Buddhism
and Christianity. Ae started crying as
soon as she began talking to Opal, and
Opal really felt the presence of the
Holy Spirit. Within the hour Ae had
accepted Jesus into her life. Ae said
she is still confused but wants to know
God. She is eager to learn more about
Him.
Fact File:
• Ae has been a student at The Centre for 10 years.
• She is 28 years old.
• On the weekends she works as a tour guide. Many of you probably had her as your
guide when you went hiking, elephant riding, and bamboo rafting.
• She is fluent in English.
• She was a very strong Buddhist, as is her family.
• One of her favorite English karaoke songs is “I Will Survive.”
• Her boyfriend is a Christian.
Dream has been a fun presence at The Centre
for about 3 months now. He is a lot of fun to
be around and a lot of the staff and volunteers
have gotten to talk to him about God.
Yesterday in his class Heather, a two month
volunteer, pointed out a Buddhist prophesy
that pointed to Jesus. She followed up with
the class by telling them about how Jesus died
for all of us. That night he went out with
Raef, another volunteer. He asked Raef, “Why
did Jesus have to die?” Raef proceeded to
talk to him for two hours. When they were
done Dream said that he felt something different
in his heart. His heart felt full. Please
pray that we will be able to follow up with
Dream and he will accept Christ. |
