Just some of this week’s Chili Night crowd!
POTLUCK THIS SUNDAY
Dear Friends,
This Tuesday we had twenty-five people at Chili Night – a record attendance, and with seven regulars missing! Mum had to cook two lots of chili, and Paddy has been drafted in as assistance cook! We needed two loads of rice, and even went through three bags of ice!
It is therefore appropriate that not only do we have a potluck this Sunday, but that the Gospel reading is the Feeding of the Five Thousand! Attendance at All Saints has also been up during June and July with the usual summer dip failing to materialise! How do we feed such a large and diverse people? Physically it is easy, spiritually it’s more of challenge!
The readings for this Sunday will be from Isaiah 55:1-5, Romans 9:1-5, and Matthew 14:13-21, and we will be singing the hymns Awake, My Soul, and with the Sun; For the Bread Which You Have Broken; Let us Break Bread Together; and A Mighty Fortress is our God!

Last Week’s Sermon
Last week’s sermon “Barbie Land or Kingdom of God?” can be seen here!
Potluck – This Week!
Our welcome back potluck will be at the vicarage this Sunday, 6th August! Bring lots of food to share!
All Saints at the Movies!
Eleven of us enjoyed watching Barbie last Thursday night! 
I was in the box, but Christa refused to be boxed!
YCF Keyboard
Every Friday night Mum and I, and our organist, Kaew, go up to YCF for our weekly choir practice. Two years ago Bill Moeller bequeathed his digital piano to the orphanage, but it is now too old to be economically repaired.
We would like to get them a new piano or keyboard and will be collecting to buy them a new or good second-hand instrument. This will probably cost around THB 20,000. If you have a keyboard or piano that you would like to donate, or if you can make a donation towards the cost, please see me or Kaew, or our treasurer, Arthur.
Chili Night continues!
Some of the group!
Chili Night continues at the usual time of 6 p.m. Come and join us at the vicarage as we share chili followed by ice cream!
Weekly Offering to All Saints
You can still donate in person or online. Thank you for your support and love for All Saints and all we are trying to do together. God has shown that he is mighty and we are in his hands!
God bless,
Father Iain
