Prayer Points

• Pray for the spiritual warfare that we encounter almost daily in this place.
• Pray for team members to join the work and prayer partners to share the vision.
• Pray for the ability to purchase the land and begin to build  
• Pray for ways to generate income for this new ministry  

Our Current Situation

Currently we are situated in four rooms and a house given to us (on loan) through the Christian Love of Thai Pastor Prakop Tinno and his family. Being fully registered as a charity foundation we are now free to purchase land in the area under the name of Eaglesrest Foundation. At present we can accommodate at least 15 people comfortably, although the school room can be converted into a make shift bedroom for a larger number if required.

Phang Nga is a beautiful place of limestone mountains and caves, jungle and rivers. The area is less than an hour to the island of Phuket and the International airport situated there. We are currently raising funds to purchase a property nearby which is 34 rai in size and includes a 4 rai lake. (one rai is equal to approximately 0.4 acres or 1600 sq.mt.) It is off the main road in a quiet street and the current asking price is 14million Thai Baht. In Phuket land is currently selling at over 12 million per raI so this is a marvelous rate. This size land will allow us to fully develop all the proposed structures while maintaining the natural beauty of the area.

Land Update for your information and prayer:

The Need as we see and understand it.

1.The Target Group:
We seek to provide a care facility for Asian Pastors and their families living in poverty.  It is a fact that there are not enough workers for the field and the workers themselves feel compelled to do more and more.
The result is a lack of quality family time; often the Pastor’s own children and spouse are the ones to suffer. In addition the self-sacrificing of the typical Asian Pastor laboring in a small church or village sees the family without basic needs of medical, dental, clothing and school supplies. Some families struggle just to have adequate food. In some Asian countries the Pastoral role is seen as only a step away from beggar status.
Secondary groups:
Eagles Rest will also be available, should facilities allow, to those who are Asian lay workers actively involved in their churches who also are in need of the services we offer. These should be recommended by their Pastor and come with his blessing for refreshment and rest.

2. Thus we see the need for a facility that will provide in the long term:

• A place for refreshing of vision, calling to ministry, vision
  and purpose for those serving in the ministry.
• To provide a venue for physical, spiritual and emotional
  restoration and healing for those burnt out, disillusioned or suffering from trauma on the field.
• To provide encouragement to continue in the faith and define and
  clarify realistic goals for a return to the ministry.
• To help Pastors and their families to be strengthened and renew
  personal commitments to each other and work through issues which otherwise get avoided or overlooked. Individual or family counseling will be provided as necessary.
• To provide rest and prayer, teaching and edification, child
  minding and children’s programs as required. 
• A safe place to talk and debrief.
• Provision of basic physical needs: clothing,  food, resources  including basic medical and dental care.
• Other perceived benefits include the health of the home church.
  When a Pastor is suffering from over-use and burn-out/stress etc, the church indirectly or directly suffers. When help is administered in a timely fashion, the Pastor will be empowered to return and minister more efficiently in his role as shepherd.

Please pray for this very real need to be met through the generosity and love of God's people around the world.
