Mentari used to struggle with listening to her parents and often refused to help with simple chores around the house, saying she was too tired. Her father and her school teachers both noticed her reluctance to follow directions, which her family understood as a struggle with obedience and authority. Everything began to change after Mentari attended Superbook Sunday School and watched the story of Abraham and Isaac. Inspired by Isaac's obedience, Mentari began to willingly help with sweeping, washing dishes, and fetching drinks for her parents. Her father noticed a deep, heart-level transformation that did not come from anger or punishment, but from her understanding of God's Word. The most touching moment for her father is now when Mentari stops to kiss his hand and say goodbye before running into her classroom, restoring their relationship.

Severe flooding across Thailand recently threatened a strategic global leadership meeting hosted by the ministry A3 in Bangkok. Despite massive travel disruptions and supply chain issues caused by a month's worth of rain falling in just three days, God answered prayers by bringing almost all of the international leaders safely to the gathering. The logistics team successfully secured meals and met other practical needs for the attendees, even as local store shelves were emptied by the crisis. During the meeting, a leader from neighboring Nepal shared how God is moving in his own country, where the government recently praised and thanked the local church for their unified disaster relief efforts after a devastating landslide. Joe Handley of A3 reports that these answered prayers and testimonies are encouraging Thai believers as they now seek to serve their own communities in the wake of the floods.

In every circumstance, God is actively cultivating hearts of service and uniting His people to reflect His love to those around them.
