Tim Dunham is a man doing great things here in Thailand for God. Chiangmai Christian Fellowship is the name of the church Tim is Head Pastor of and "The Family Connection Foundation" was started as the churches arm to reach out to help their neighbors here in Thailand. Among the programs in the foundation is the Ban San Rak Children's Home. This is no ordinary orphanage. With Ban San Rak only 6 to 8 children are placed in each home and every home has at least 3 caregivers. The congregation of the church also provides needed community support including acting in the role of big brothers/sisters and Aunts/Uncles. Many of the children being helped through the program are from state institutions where there are 50 kids to every one caregiver, and many others are high risk kids for human trafficking. This is just one of the programs that the church foundation is getting involved and making a difference in the lives the people in there community. For more information on Chiangmai Christian Fellowship and The Family Connection Foundation you can check out their websites. This is a church truly doing their part to be the hands and feet of God here in Thailand.
Does your church have programs that extend a hand of support into your community? If so how are you assisting the effort? If not, is their anything you can do to help start programs or rally your neighbors to assist those in need around you?
