Building Begins in Thailand: New Studio and Office
Praise God! We have officially started building the new Love for Asia Studio and Office in Thailand! Christian media and literature in Thailand is scarce, and often the available resources have not been contextualized for the Thai culture. God has given us a dream to help provide these resources to the Thai people. The Love for Asia team has been translating books and filming church services, but they want to do more. This new studio will give them that opportunity.
Please enjoy these project photos and learn more about the new studio below:
The new studio will have space to film a variety of Christ-centered programming in Thai and other local languages. It will also have space for video editing, translating literature and videos, processing missionary visas and work permits, and housing guests who come to film or meet with the Love for Asia team.
The builders put in a retaining wall around the edges of the property to keep the ground level and raised up from potential flood waters.
Next the builders dug holes for the foundation.
The builders filled the holes with concrete and then, when they were dry, they covered the holes with dirt. This foundation will help ensure the new studio lasts for a long time.
With the foundation holes filled in, the builders are nearly ready to start building the guest housing. We praise God for this opportunity to see how God is bringing this dream for the people of Thailand into reality!
We will share more updates soon.
