Thai Grace
B-P Church
FIVE BIBLE STUDENTS from
Bangkok gathered in a room at the
Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church
in the early 1970’s to form a Thai Christian
Fellowship. It was the beginning of
the Thai Grace Church.
In 1983 the Lord led the Thai Grace
B-P Church through Prachan, a student of
FEBC to the B-P Church in Gilstead Road.
In the ensuing years the Lord’s hand was
seen blessing the work of Prachan. God
loved and prospered the Thai Service. The
number of worshippers gradually increased
to over 75, consisting of Thai ladies married
to Singaporeans, their husbands, and
their English-speaking children.
Our Pastor delivered a message, “Are
you concerned for the salvation of your
own people.”, at the Thai Service,
Beulah House on the Lord’s Day,
27 February 2000 at 3.00 p.m.. Our
Pastor observed that the Thai Grace
B-P Church had three main roles
to perform. It is appropriate to quote
him: “Most of your husbands, being
Singaporeans and know little
Thai and your English-speaking
children, should be your first concern.
Your second concern falls on
your own people wherever they are
to be found. Now thousands of
Thais are working or studying in
Singapore. Here is a good opportunity
to convert them to the Lord.
And finally, start a missionary Fellowship
in your church. This will
give you the opportunity to come
together to pray for missions.
Bring in missionaries to challenge
you to greater effort. And when
you gather for fellowship, this will
further become a channel whereby
you can send your money to support
worthy missionaries back in
Thailand. This concern for your
own people needs the encouragement
of Life Church, your mother
Church.”
The Thai Grace B-P Church is deeply
grateful to have been so graciously accepted
by the mother church when the
Lord’s hand led us back home after a few
months away at the True Way Presbyterian
Church in Queenstown. We praise and
thank the Lord for His direction and guidance
in leading us through many trials to
triumph in His service.
