New Generation Staff

LawPi
Age:25 from: WiangPaPao village
Training: Graduated from the House of Joy Akha Bible College and was staff at the Bible College for 2 years. He currently sits in on the YWAM DTS lectures every weekday morning for additional training.

LawPi is very good at playing and leading worship music. He is very good with the Akha Language and can read and write Akha and also knows many Akha Christian Songs (Most Akha cannot read or write their own language as it was not written down until recently. It is more common for the Akha to learn to read and write Thai if they go to a Thai school).
He is a strong Christian and is good at teaching Christians and encouraging pastors. He is very excited for this opportunity to teach and mentor students.

LawPi needs prayer for a Thai ID card. Because he does not have one, it is very difficult for him to travel in Thailand. If he gets stopped by police for anytime he is outside of his home village he is at risk of getting arrested and spending time in jail. Please pray that he will get his ID card. He has been trying for several years and feels like he is close to being issued one.
LawPi also needs prayer for financial support.
