Legacy Letter July 2011

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, At Legacy Foundation Leadership Training Center here in Chiang Mai, we just completed a very special project. Four young ladies were sent by the Royal Palace to participate in an intensive English training program for six weeks. All four work at Queen Sirikit’s SUPPORT Foundation museum displaying the “Arts of the Kingdom.” This museum is housed in the royal Ananta Samakom Throne Hall, part of the royal complex in Bangkok. They have already graduated with degrees from Kasetsart University in Bangkok and have had some English training. The intensive English language curriculum was designed by our volunteer teacher Julia Stewart, who also taught the classes. Julia herself took part in an intensive crash course and received a TESOL (teach English to speakers of other languages) certificate from Cornerstone University. The young ladies not only had classroom instruction, but participated in real life experience as well by going out into the public and practicing English with Western tourists. They also took part in other classes taught at Legacy (Advanced English, Public Speaking, Sports, and even Sabbath services). The aim was to boost their conversational skills as well as their confidence.

9 November 2015 -Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, While those who understand the annual holy days (the commanded assemblies of God) were keeping the Feast of Tabernacles, which pictures the 1000-year millennial rule of Jesus Christ on earth from His capital in Jerusalem (Isaiah 11:1-9, Revelation 20:1-4, Isaiah 9:6, Daniel 2:44-45), the best—some would say “worst”—attempt at this world’s solution for peace among nations was very busy forming their own counterfeit of that kingdom. This counterfeit kingdom of what the Bible calls the “Beast” was rapidly being set in motion without much media coverage. Other than the Pope’s speech calling for peace, the media said little.

Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers,
Last month I received a surprise telephone call from Queen Sirikit’s deputy private secretary. She said that Her Majesty was inviting Gloria and me to come to Bangkok for a concert. I explained that Gloria was already in California taking care of her 96-year-old Aunt Gerda for a few months. She said she would get back to me. A short time later, the queen’s secretary called back and asked if I would agree to accept the invitation and come alone. I said I would accept.
