Countdown December 16, 2010

While we all are busy getting ready to celebrate Jesus' birthday with our families and friends, the Thailand Mission Team is also getting ready to head to Thailand. We are down to 19 days before we leave and there are a lot of mixed emotions going through each of us. Excitement, fear, nervousness, giddiness....











There have been a few changes for the contruction team due to some unexpected circumstances, but we will now be heading to a refugee camp called Mae La Oon, which is located on the Burma border, just a little SW of Ma Saring. We will be building 2, possibly 3, bamboo huts to be used as housing for children in an orphanage.







We are excited to see what God has in store for us. Please continue to keep us in your prayers.



The Missions Team Has Returned!



This is the Medical/Construction Team that went to Thailand February 2010. The trip was overwhelming for most of us. It opened our eyes like never before. The need, the despair, the lack of hope we found with the Burma refugees was heart rendering. At the same time the thankfulness of anything we could give them was so great it made us feel so humble. Words cannot express the emotions we felt over the two weeks we were there. That is why most of us are planning to go back again next year in January 2011.

Welcome to Clare Church of the Nazarene's Mission Blog. There are a lot of projects all running at the same time, and this blog is our attempt at keeping everyone informed.

  • We have started an on-site food pantry! This is for anyone in the community that has a need.
  • We are involved in LOVE INC. A non profit organization that connects church resources to meet the needs of the community.
  • We had our second annual Thanksgiving Dinner on Thanksgiving Day that was open to anyone that would be alone or could not fix a meal for themselves.
  • BUT PERHAPS THE BIGGEST PROJECT....is a Medical/Construction trip planned in February to Thailand. The Karen refugees have no medical or dental care, and no clean water. A Physician, a Dentist and several laborers are going to minister to the needs of these people. Please pray for them as they prepare for this trip. They are still in need of financial support, since they are taking medical supplies and equipment with them. Your TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION can be sent to Clare Church of the Nazarene, att. Missions, 10160 S. Grant Ave, Clare, Michigan 48617.
  • Thank you in advance for your prayers and support. Check back for updates.
