From Ken Chase for All Saints Chiang Mai

Dear Friends,
Last week’s offering, which was for the Philippines Disaster Appeal, was THB 5,140. This is more than four times our usual offering. Iain has transferred £100 to the Disasters Emergency Committee Philippines Typhoon Appeal. Thanks to all who gave generously to support our brothers and sisters in so much need!
.
Last week’s sermon can be heard on YouTube via the Audio-Visual page of the website.
Iain will be away on Sundays 22nd and 29th December, and Haley and I will probably also be travelling, so there will be no services at All Saints on those days. Services will restart on Sunday 5th January.
Meanwhile, we will enter the season of Advent on Sunday and will be lighting the first candle of our Advent Crown. This week’s readings are Isaiah 2:1-5, Romans 13:11-14 and Matthew 24:36-44, and we will sing the hymns O Come, O come Emmanuel, Jesus Shall Reign Where’er the Sun, Sing We the King Who is Coming to Reign, and Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus.
Thanks again, to all who gave so generously.
God bless,
Ken
