We all know how involved children here in the States can get with summer activities. We have noticed that the same is true for several of our children at Gethsemane home.

We always enjoy this time of year seeing new growth take place. In the same manner, we are celebrating the growth that is happening with Under the Son Ministries through the work of those on the mission field in Thailand. With this growth comes many changes and the need for sacrifice in our efforts to spread the gospel of Christ. We thank you for the continued prayers and sacrifices you have made to support our ministry team. (Click on “March 2017” above to view the complete newsletter.)
