The Way Foundation&#8217;s vision is to help establish a growing ministry that will continue to share the gospel, make disciples, plant churches and be connected to churches around the world, including those in America, for many generations to come.<\/p>\n<p>The following are testimonies from students who participated in EFM Thailand&#8217;s Pastors and Evangelists Training (PET).<\/p>\n<p>Most of the students are people who grew up from Christian families. They had the opportunity to learn the word of God and grow up in the church. Most of them are already married now and have their own family. And all students participated in various church services. For example, some of them served in church accounting. Some teach children in the church. and some of them are on committees in the church.<\/p>\n<p>When listening to the reasons why they served in the church, almost everyone replied that<br \/>\n\u201cif you serve in the church you will be saved, if you don&#8217;t serve, you won&#8217;t be saved.\u201d<br \/>\nBut now, after taking the PET course, they realized that if they didn&#8217;t believe in the gospel, they won\u2019t be saved. Studying here makes them understand the gospel more clearly and learn the meaning of the gospel. \u201cI feel very happy after understanding the gospel.\u201d True salvation will be received through believing in the gospel.<\/p>\n<table style=\"background-color: #c8ced6;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23472 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Group-300x224.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Group-300x224.png 300w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Group-16x12.png 16w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Group.png 325w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23469 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-In-the-Classroom-300x225.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-In-the-Classroom-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-In-the-Classroom-16x12.png 16w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-In-the-Classroom.png 322w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23471 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"209\" height=\"279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher.png 209w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher-9x12.png 9w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 209px) 100vw, 209px\" \/><\/td>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-23470 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"208\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher-2.png 208w, https:\/\/friendsmission.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/EFM-Thailand-The-Way-Foundation-PET-Students-Teacher-2-9x12.png 9w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 208px) 100vw, 208px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Check out the following testimony from Mana who was a student in the PET program!<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UomusQIV0oY\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Thanks for your prayer and your support.<\/p>\n<p>From,<br \/>\nAchi Kunakorn<br \/>\nExecutive Director, The Way Foundation<\/p>\n<table style=\"background-color: #c8ced6;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>EFM Thailand&#8217;s fundraising status is currently at 64% based on the commitments for monthly\/yearly recurring giving that are needed for this ministry to be fully funded.
