Bangkok, Thailand: Over the past three months, excitement has been growing in Bangkok for church planting!

Two churches have been meeting once a month to focus on planting new churches within the city of Bangkok, a city of more than 9 million people.

IMG_3511During one of the sessions, focus was given to training church members on how to effectively share their testimony in just 2 minutes with those of other belief groups that area found within the city.

“All of our members needed to know how to do this,” said Pastor Panom of the Oikos Church of the Nazarene.

Pastor Panom is focusing on the development of this essential evangelistic component during Sunday mornings.

“Many of the principles of church planting are the same principles for healthy churches,” said Southeast Asia Field Strategy Coordinator, David Phillips. “More and more an atmosphere of faith is developing here in Bangkok. May the Lord lead us!”
