Twenty Years in Thailand

Twenty years of ministry in Thailand… and an invitation to come see what God has done.

Next year marks something pretty special for me.

2027 will be my 20th year serving in Thailand with ZOE.

When I first came here, it was only supposed to be for six months. Michael and Carol Hart invited me to help train their staff on how to teach the Word of God to children in ways that really stick.

But six months turned into a year… and a year turned into a calling.

Over the past two decades I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside children rescued from trafficking, discipling the next generation, and training Thai leaders who will continue this work long after missionaries like me are gone.

And the truth is, none of it would have been possible without the people who have supported me along the way.

Because of you, kids have been rescued.Because of you, the Gospel has been shared.Because of you, lives have been transformed.

Which got us thinking…

What if some of you came to Thailand and saw it for yourselves?

ZOE is hosting a Donor Vision Trip:

📍 Thailand

📅 June 23 – July 3, 2027

These trips are designed for supporters to experience the ministry firsthand. You’ll meet the team, visit ministry locations, and see the impact your support has helped make possible.

I chose this particular trip because it falls during Justice’s summer break, which means he and I will both be able to fully participate.

Honestly, it would mean so much to celebrate 20 years of ministry with some of the people who helped make it possible.

Just to be clear, this isn’t a commitment right now. I’m simply trying to see who might be interested in learning more.

If there’s even a small chance you might want to come, let me know and I’ll add you to the interest list.

I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate twenty years in Thailand than sharing it with the people who have been part of the journey.

Maybe that includes you.
