OUTREACH
THE
GREAT
COMMISSION
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
Matthew 28:18-20 ESV
GLOBAL OUTREACH
HOME OF
BLESSINGS
CHIANG KHAM, THAILAND
Macomb Christian Church is the sole providers of financial support to the Home of Blessings (HOB) in Chiang Kham, Thailand since 2005. Michael and Naomi Phillips, along with their two sons, oversee the ministry at the HOB which houses 15 Hmong boys from hill-tribes in Northern Thailand. The HOB provides these boys the opportunity to hear the word of God and receive quality education from the local schools. Macomb Christian Church routinely sends short-term mission teams for fellowship, encourage, and to share the love of Christ with the boys and home parents.
UPDATE:
The boys are on their way home to visit famly and friends during school break but before leaving they spent time together in worship and enjoying a special meal.
Caleb Phillips and his wife Cayleigh are spending more time with the boys while learning how to step into a more leadership role.
Mike and Naomi will be returning from sabbatical later this month.

CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP UPDATE
As of January, 37 students were baptized this school year, and there were around 10 more in February.
Students have gotten back from their spring break: service trips, evangelism trips, and learning trips. They are a huge impact on students’ lives.
