Christmas at The River was a very exciting time for the
River and all the communities that we are involved with.
We had our first ever River Christmas in Bangkok on the 16th
of December! We had a Christmas party for all our Bangkok connect groups with over 100 people attending. It was an amazing time of fellowship, friendship and fun! Gifts were shared, people
were encouraged and the message of Christmas was shared. It is was amazing to
see how many new people attended and how fast The River is growing in Bangkok. On
the following Saturday, The River team spread the Christmas Spirit by giving
gifts to people in the community.
Christmas time in Hang Dong was filled with activity and
festivity. The River team worked together with local community leaders to bring a night of fun, food games and a message of joy to over 200 people
in the San Pak Wan community in a wonderful community concert. There was
singing, dancing and drama presentations presented by both The River team and
local community members.
Santor School invited the River team to be apart of their
Christmas celebrations. The students welcomed our team with open arms.
On the 21st Of December we celebrated Christmas
as a church community. The place was packed with so many people! It was an
atmosphere of excitement and expectancy! Four teachers from a local school that we
teach in attended our church for the first time!
One woman experienced a miracle of provision, by receiving a simple bag of rice as a gift. Only God knew that it came at exactly the right time.

Thank you so much for your ongoing support and prayers over
the Christmas period. Over 700 people attended River Christmas events and over 500
gifts were given out!
The whole of The River Team wish you a wonderful 2015!
I like the idea of Celebrating Christmas at river. I love such venues. Usually I attend lots of events in New York but it’s a good feeling to celebrate special days in the lap of nature. Isn’t that?
