Legacy Letter January 2013

Dear Brethren and Fellow Laborers, 23 April 2018 – JAWK TAING BRETHREN KEEP PASSOVER AND DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD WITH EARL ROEMER AND DAVID BENSINGER – Leon and I have previously written in the Legacy letter about the miracle blessing of Earl Roemer and David Bensinger coming to Myanmar to handle Passover and Unleavened Bread services, since Leon was not able to do so after his stroke in November. We are so very grateful for their service to God and his people! Many do not realize all that has been involved in preparing for a trip such as this. There is organizing the travel tickets, hours spent at airports, and very long flights.

10 May 2016 – Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Our recent trip to Myanmar (Burma) for Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread was a great success. However, it turned out to be a difficult trip for me…

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Mr. Herbert W. Armstrong met King Bhumibol Adulyadej the first time in 1971. At that time, the king told him about a new project to educate the ethnic hill tribes that inhabited the highland border region of northern Thailand. These hill tribes grew opium and sold it to Chinese middle-men as their only cash crop. The king wanted to teach them to grow other crops, such as peaches and vegetables, to replace the opium they grew. This would be more profitable for the hill tribes and much less destructive to the upland forests and humanity as a whole. The king also wanted to give their children an education but had very few trained teachers.

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Friday, December 5th, was the 87th birth anniversary of King Bhumibol Adulyadej, King of Thailand. In Thailand, December 5th is also celebrated as national Father’s Day. King Bhumibol has the distinction of being the longest reigning monarch in the world today, having ascended the throne on June 9, 1946. Queen Elizabeth II of England is the second longest reigning monarch.
