The readings for this Sunday will be from Genesis 12:1-9, Corinthians 13:11-13, Romans 4:13-25, , and Matthew 9:9-13; 18-26, and we will be singing the hymns The God of Abraham Praise, Spirit of God, Descend Upon My Heart, When We Walk With The Lord.

Own sitting area! As you may know, Ratcha is going to Paris to study for two years, and that will leave only two of us living in the vicarage. It’s a big place, so we would like a third person to be able to share. We have a large room available with its own bathroom and a private living room area outside. You’d also be able to use all the rest of the house as well and the garden.
If you’re interested, speak to Father Iain.

Still on Sabbatical – but back from England
Me, my brother Stephen, and Helga the Hymer Motorhome
Dear All,
I’d just like to say thank you to the people at All Saints for giving me the chance to have a sabbatical. The first one I’ve had in twelve years leading All Saints. Mark is doing an excellent job for these three months. He is on a full stipend, whereas I have dropped down onto a half stipend for this period.
My time in England enabled me to buy a motor home, which I’ll be using later in the year with Ratcha and my mum. More importantly it enabled me to reconnect with my brother and spend more time with him than I’ve spent in decades. It was a really good time to renew our relationship.
Thanks again for this great opportunity.

Join us for Trinity Sunday. Let us examine the scriptures together this Sunday at 10:30 AM as we look at this fascinating concept.
The readings for Trinity Sunday will be from Isaiah 40:12-17; 27-31, 2 Corinthians 13:11-13, and Matthew 28:16-20, and we will be singing the hymns Holly, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!, Mothering God, Father, We Love You, Tell Out My Soul.

Father Iain in the United Kingdom
From Father Iain:
As many of you will know, my partner, Ratcha, has been offered a place to study French at the Sorbonne, beginning in August. The cheapest way for me to spend some time with her and to travel around is to buy a camper van in Europe. I am doing this, and so last week I travelled to the UK. I shall be back in time for Chiang Mai Pride on the 24th of May.
As you may appreciate, all the planning has taken a lot of my bandwidth over the last week, so I apologise if I haven’t been able to get back to you. I’ll try and catch up with emails and paperwork while I’m away.
My mum will not be coming this time, so please take care of her while I’m away.
Look forward to seeing you when I return. Please pray that it all goes well and works out for the best.

Last Saturday transACTIONrefuge went on a hike. Nine of us drove up to the Montha Than Waterfall and went on a short hike – ending up at the waterfall where the bravest went for a swim. The waterfall was the highlight of the walk and everyone was happy to see it! Why? Because water gives life! Just contrast the bare desert mountains of the Middle East with the lush green mountains of Thailand to see this truth!
In this week’s Gospel reading, Jesus encounters a woman at an ancient Samarian well. He offers her “living water”. That is what the Christian life is all about: the opportunity to be continually filled with living water! Sometimes we feel dry and barren too, but that water is available if we just allow God to open the flood gates!
The readings for the Third Sunday of Lent will be from Exodus 17:1-7, Romans 5:1-11, and John 4:5-26, 39-42, and we will be singing the hymns Immortal, Invisible, God only Wise; Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing; In the Morning when I Rise; and In Christ alone my hope is Found!

This morning, Mark received his visa approval — which we are incredibly grateful for.
I am still waiting on one final document before I can submit my own application. As soon as it arrives, we’ll move forward with the next step. Please keep us in mind and in your prayers as we wait for the document to come through. We’re hoping it arrives quickly and without complication so we can return to Thailand soon.
Thank you again for making this process possible. Your generosity has allowed us to take these steps with peace instead of panic.
We’re hopeful and trusting that the remaining pieces will fall into place. We’ll keep you posted. .

The Kingdom of God – God’s people worshipping together!
Dear Friends,
This week we continue our observance of Lent as we look at the story of Nicodemus who came to Jesus with compliments. Jesus responded “Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.”
What does it mean to see God’s kingdom, and even more to enter it?
The readings for the Second Sunday of Lent will be from Genesis 12:1-4, Romans 4:1-5, 13-17, and John 3:1-17, and we will be singing the hymns The God of Abraham Praise; O Jesus, I have Promised; Let us Break Bread Together; and What a Friend We Have in Jesus!

We did it.
Because of you, our $10,000 goal has been fully funded—and exceeded. We cannot adequately express our gratitude. Your generosity enables us to move forward in seeking permission to return to Thailand. But your support means even more than that. Mark shares how:
“Yesterday, a mother called me asking for help relocating to safety. She is a refugee fleeing war and sexual violence, now also surviving domestic abuse and abandonment. She has nothing except two small children — one of whom is sick and requires ongoing medical care.
On the worst day of her life, I was able to be present, listen carefully, and help her begin to see options again. And because of your financial support and prayers, you were there for her too.
It was as if she walked into a room full of caring, capable people from around the world asking, ‘How can we help?’
Love is the most powerful force in the universe. Through your kindness, more love has entered her story.”
On a personal level, Mark’s mom recently suffered a massive stroke after weeks of hospitalization for a broken hip. His 81-year-old father cannot live independently without her. Being able to return and care for them during this season matters deeply to us.
Please continue to pray for our visas to be approved, for this refugee mother and her children, and for Mark’s parents.
Your presence with us in this season means more than we can say.
This campaign officially closes tonight. We will share final totals once all gifts have been processed. If you feel led to support our ongoing care of people like this refugee mother, the giving links will remain open. But please know: the visa goal has been met and exceeded.
Thank you for standing with us.

Last Year’s Reflections on the Stations of the Cross
Dear Friends,
What are you going to give up for Lent? Chocolate? Facebook? Social Media? How about giving up striving, giving up stress, giving up worrying?
Jesus said:
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to your span of life?
Yes, we need to plan, yes, we need to make sensible provision – but even then the best laid plans of mice and men can come tumbling down! (Just read below about Mark and Christa’s situation to witness this!)
Trust is the key – if we trust God with our lives then we need not worry for we know that, ultimately, all is safe in God’s hands!
The readings for the First Sunday of Lent will be from Genesis 2:15-17, 3:1-7, Romans 5:12-17, and Matthew 4:1-11, and we will be singing the hymns When I Survey the Wondrous Cross; Forty Days and Forty Nights; Bless the Lord oh my Soul; and God is Love!

Christa writes:
Mark and I must leave Thailand to apply for new ones — and unless we complete that process, we won’t be allowed to return.
But we cannot complete the process without your help.
Thailand has been our home for 25 years. For a quarter century, we’ve walked alongside children, women, and men finding freedom from trafficking, exploitation, and harm. There is still more work to do.
This is not an expulsion. It’s a deadline.
Our original visa pathway unexpectedly fell through at the last minute. Now, to obtain new visas, we must meet two significant financial requirements — both beyond what we can manage alone.
The first is a $50,000 capital requirement — and incredibly, that has already been provided without us asking. We are profoundly grateful.
The second is $10,000 to cover visa fees, international airfare, and basic living expenses while we remain outside Thailand during the 20-day processing period. Without raising this $10,000 by Friday, we cannot complete the process — and we will not be allowed to return.
If you’re able to help, any amount moves us closer. If giving isn’t possible, sharing this post expands the circle. The tax-deductible donation link is in the comments. We’ll post updates as this unfolds.
Thank you for standing with us. Your prayers, encouragement, and generosity make it possible for us to remain where we are called to serve.
If you have a Thai bank account you can also donate via the All Saints bank account which is in my name, or give cash on Sunday. Email Adam, our treasurer, on adamsensamaust@gmail.com to designate your gift.

Jesus was assigned human at birth when he was actually God inside – actually he was both, for the scriptures attest that Jesus was fully man and fully God – God with us!
Christ’s true nature was revealed at the transfiguration when the disciples caught a glimpse of Jesus’ true self!
Lent is almost upon us, we will celebrate “Pancake Sunday” this week, but on the Sunday before Lent the Gospel reading is always the story of Jesus’ transfiguration. Before his all-too-human temptations and death on the cross are remembered, we remember Jesus shining with the glory of God!
That is what the Transfiguration is about – it is the revelation of who Jesus really is – the Son of God! And Moses and Elijah appear to testify about this on behalf of the Law and the Prophets.
What about us? How do we see Jesus? And are we prepared to reveal who we really are too? Do we even know who that is? If we believe, then we are children of God, and that knowledge is at least a start!
The readings this week will be Exodus 24:12-18, 2 Peter 1:16-21, and Matthew 17:1-9, and we will be singing the hymns Praise to the Lord, Transfiguration Hymn; You laid aside Your Majesty; and Christ be our Light! Our choir will be singing Transfiguration and The Lord Bless You and Keep You.
Then on Wednesday we will have two services to mark Ash Wednesday: firstly a short service at 8:30 a.m. and then our usual Ash Wednesday service at 7 p.m. Both services will include the imposition of ashes.
At our 7 p.m. Ash Wednesday service we will sing the hymns Abide with Me, O Love That Wilt Not Let Me Go, and The Day Thou Gavest, Lord, Is Ended.

All Saints Annual General Meeting – Last Sunday
This was held following the morning service last Sunday, 8th February.
The meeting received reports, approved the budget for 2026, and elected a new Church Council for the next year. Four people were elected for the elected positions on the Church Council. They are:
Paddy Davis Barbara Franklin Elsa King Charlotte Sensamaust
In addition, I, as vicar, remain an ex-officio member, and Christa Crawford will replace Mark Crawford in one of the two other clergy positions. Helen Catton has been co-opted to fill the other clergy position in the absence of another clerical candidate.
In response to my vicar’s report, there was a discussion regarding the future of the All Saints Foundation:
This is now working smoothly due to the hard work of our administrator, Gai. However, it is not providing the solution we had hoped for. Although it has enabled us to have a bank account in the name of All Saints, it has not increased our transparency or allowed us to obtain volunteer visas for our clergy. It is costing around THB 200,000 a year to maintain which amounts to around 20% of our annual budget. We are also struggling to fulfil the requirement to benefit “Thai people” other than in our work with YCF, and they are a separate foundation.
Additionally, two of the foundation board members wish to resign and this could take 12 to 18 months to facilitate and find suitable willing replacements.
Considerable expense was incurred in setting up the foundation and many people, especially Khun Tasnee, invested a great deal of time into the project. However, continuing as we are is not viable. The three options are:
1) Continuing with a restructured foundation and initiating a project to support Thai people. 2) Putting the foundation into a “deep freeze” so that it can be revived in the future. 3) Closing the foundation.
Option One is possible but would involve more work and would continue to cost us THB 200,000 per year.
It seems Option Two is not possible as the foundation can be closed down by the authorities if it is perceived as no longer active – and we would still need to provide monthly reports and accounts so the costs would still be significant for no purpose whatsoever.
Option Three is a drastic step and should we want a foundation in the future we would again incur costs. Some costs will also accrue from winding-up the organisation.
The new Church Council will consider the way forward at its next meeting and should they decide on Option Three we will have to call an Extraordinary General Meeting to ratify the decision and amend the All Saints Constitution accordingly.
Other points raised at the meeting:
– Suggestion for council going forward: Have quarterly reporting on church council meetings email to congregants.
– Formalize or set boundaries for community outreach work to keep it sustainable for All Saints Church leadership.
– AGM expressed great appreciation for the work of the outgoing Council Chair, Sarah Sensamaust.
– Community Responsibilities: Arthur and Phyllis continue as altar fabric people. Coffee and snack hosting: By month? Elsa: Volunteer Coordinator to organize the community ministries (altar guild, potluck, coffee hosting, organize clean up after potluck, basket for donations for people who don’t bring money) James will help document the processes and systems guide Chris and Christa to take potluck organization and shoulder tapping. Newsletters and/or weekly bulletin to include helpers, attendance, offering, etc.
Finance and Budget reporting: Adam – Do a better job advertising space for rent/fee (about 300/hour) – Consider raising cost for existing group space rental (500/session) – Budget accepted and approved for 2026. .
Ash Wednesday Service
On Wednesday we will have two services to mark Ash Wednesday: firstly a short service at 8:30 a.m. and then our usual Ash Wednesday service at 7 p.m. Both services will include the imposition of ashes.
