One year ago Dr. Rick Thomas was invited to speak at meetings in Cali and Bogotá, Colombia. There, he met Pastor Jhon Milton Rodriguez, of Misión Paz a las Naciones, and God forged an alliance between the two men. Pastor Rodriguez shared how his church had never before accepted a message about God prospering His children, "but," said Pastor Rodriguez, "I believe that you have the favor and insight to teach it."

In Chiang Rai Province, Thailand, Pastor Suphot Phanon and Missionaries Jeff and Michele Dove have long had a dream for a building to house an international English-speaking church to minister to the many tourists who are finding their way to Chiang Rai, a community development ministry, and the radio station from which Pastor Suphot broadcasts "Born to Love." A few months ago a building became available, and Dr. Rick Thomas traveled to Thailand to view the facility.
