After the December 2005 tsunami in Thailand, we were in need of vans to work in the projects that were going on. STL provided two vans that are still in use today in the southern part of the country
where the tsunami hit. One van is now used in the orphans project which ministers to over 100 kids who lost one or both parents in the tsunami. It also provides transportation each week for the ministry
team that works with the new church plant in that city. It has carried disaster relief supplies, ministry teams, families to church, and performed a host of other ministry-related tasks.
The second van was provided for Phuket Christian Center which has been in the thick of the tsunami relief efforts from the beginning since they are right there in the area where the wave hit. They use
the van weekly to transport the ministry team two hours north to where there is a new church plant among the Morgan people who are sea gypsies. The whole village gave their hearts to Christ and the team
travels weekly to do discipleship and training with them in the new church plant. This van has also done its share of other ministry-related tasks.
Thank you so much, STL, for the great work and partnership!
