Main building of Empress Hotel & Convention Center in Chiang Mai
The Feast of Tabernacles is just around the corner. If you are still undecided as to the festival site you will attend, consider Thailand. Thailand was never colonized by a Western nation, so the culture is uniquely its own.
The God-appointed Feast will be held in Chiang Mai, Thailand, with daily sermons of spiritual food —the most important aspect of the Feast—along with the feasting of physical meals, both Western and/or Asian.
Chiang Mai, called the “Rose of the North”, was founded by three kings over 700 years ago and still retains some of the faded glories of its ancient past. For instance, one can still walk around the moat that surrounds the old city and explore the remnants of the ancient walls. The Thai people are Buddhist, so a visitor will find temples and pagodas mixed in with modern Western style shopping malls and merchant shops packed with hand-woven cottons, silks, gems, and carved teak statuary and furniture. Chiang Mai is a major tourist destination, so an abundance of miscellaneous souvenirs at the famous Night Bazaar or Sunday Market are also available. Chiang Mai is a blend of ancient and modern; serenity and hustle bustle; exotic and familiar; provincial and cosmopolitan.
The Empress Hotel has all the amenities one would find in any Four or Five-Star hotel anywhere in the world—even Wi-Fi.

Meanwhile, please do not forget our COG brethren in Myanmar (Burma). They are not able to gather with us in Chiang Mai and will gather together for the Feast of Tabernacles near the central Burma city of Taungoo. Our Legacy graduates will be giving sermons every day. The COG deacon, U Myo Zaw and his wife, Too Mar, will travel north from Rangoon to assist in handling the Feast logistics. Legacy Institute must also finance the Burma Feast of Tabernacles for approximately 30-40 people gathering from different parts of the country. Since most of the Feast participants are subsistence farmers and day laborers, few have enough 2nd tithe. Also our Chiang Mai members and students who do not earn a living, must be provided for. If any of you have an excess of festival tithe, please help us finance the Feast of Tabernacles in Burma and Thailand. It will require about 2,500 USD for all 8 days in Burma. This will cover all food (including special feast food such as more meat), and transportation for a special outing. To cover the cost of the Feast for member families and students (20+) in Thailand, we estimate we will also need $2,500. Please designate your donation as “Burma Feast Fund” or “Thailand Feast Fund.”
May Our Glorious God grant you all a wonder-filled and spiritually rejuvenating Feast of Tabernacles!
In the Lord Jesus’ service,
