ACBM activities
Work commenced in 1985. Several fieldworker visits in 2009 and early 2010 have led to the development of a number of new contacts, particularly among the ethnic groups in northern Thailand. Visits to small, Karen villages, for example, have generated interest in our Bible course and literature and led to the commencement of a translation of a 40 lesson course into Karen. This will also enhance our work in Myanmar among the Karen there. Further fieldworker visits to Thailand’s north are being organised for 2010.
