In August of 2015, Mong gave his life to Christ after attending our first English camp at Ban Pho school. (his story is in the archives) His mother also prayed that day but since has not been interested in the Christian walk. She has not hindered her son from his walk of faith, which we are grateful. I was in charge of the music portion of the camp and I remember vividly how the music lit up his face. He loved every song I taught and I had a feeling, the Lord was working on his heart. Now, 2 years later, Mong has written his first Christian song and asked if he could share it at our little Plang Yao church. A little nervous about what the song might be about, we said yes, he could share his song. Then he asked, “Dr. Doug, is Hallelujah a good word? What exactly does it mean? Cause it’s in my song. I just wanted to be sure that was okay?” Dr. Doug explained its meaning and told him it was very okay to have in his song. Feeling very excited to hear Mong’s song we went to church that day with exciting anticipation. It was indeed wonderful. So wonderful we asked him to sing it again at our church in Bangkla. I will attach the video url from facebook. Here is the translation. https://www.facebook.com/cheryl.derbyshire.7/videos/10214315184973993/
Oh my Jesus, Oh my Lord Lead me from all my troubles There is no one else who can help like you Halleluiah Halleluiah I dedicate my life I dedicate my life to you Jesus The one who saves me from my sins Hallelujah Hallelujah 2 years ago Mong was headed down a dark path and God rescued him. He was failing every class and his principle was very worried about where he would wind up. But God rescued him. He is now doing well in school and representing Chacheungsao in celebrations of the new king of Thailand's coronation. He has found new life in Christ and he is forever changed.

Beyond words. Heart full of joy to have been a tiny part of this miracle. Praying that he will continue to be a light in Thailand.
