All good things come to an end

REFRESH was birthed from a strong sense that God wanted us to start and lead a regular worship night for the Chiang Mai community. We have done that for 4 years and it has been our pleasure and privilege.

After much prayer and thought we have made the decision that REFRESH will not continue. We feel we have come to an end of this ministry at this time. 

We look back on the 4 years with gratitude and joy. It is exhilarating and humbling to remember what God laid on our hearts in the years we prayed and planned before REFRESH, and then to see how it came to pass.

We could not have run REFRESH without a lot of help in various ways – the REFRESH Band members over the 4 years, the technical team (sound, lights, lyrics), musicians, artists, the venues (CMCC, CMIS, GIS and HOP), CMCC’s support, Sojo’s CafĂ©, the prayer team, and the ‘roadies’ (set up and pack down). We want to thank all those who supported the ministry of REFRESH in these ways. We trust you have been blessed by your involvement, as we know you have blessed the community.

For the many who came regularly to REFRESH worship nights, it has been a joy worshipping God with you. 

And for our great God, we glorify You! For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise! (1 Chronicles 16:25)

Blessings,

KEN & ROSLYN MANSON and MARK & DANA RITCHIE
