As we step into 2025, I am filled with anticipation and faith, ready to follow the call of Jesus into a life-changing mission. This year, I will embark on an extraordinary journey to Pattaya, Thailand—known as the red-light capital of the world. While this city is famous for its nightlife, it is also plagued by some of the darkest struggles humanity faces: high rates of suicide, drug abuse, human trafficking, and countless other challenges that demand urgent attention and compassion.

My mission is clear: to bring the light of Christ into the darkest corners of Pattaya. I will begin my work as a street evangelist, engaging directly with people who are in desperate need of hope, healing, and restoration. Walking the streets where despair often overshadows hope, I will share the message of love, grace, and redemption found in Jesus Christ.
But this mission doesn’t stop at evangelism. I will partner with other missionaries, local churches, and programs that align with this vision of transformation. Together, we will use tools like the Influencers program to build faith communities and the recovery program to help individuals break free from addiction and other life-controlling issues. These partnerships will not only strengthen the impact of this mission but also create sustainable pathways for lasting change in the lives of those we serve.
Pattaya is a place where the battle between light and darkness is unmistakable. Yet, I believe that the love of Christ shines brightest in such places. This journey is not just about bringing change to a city; it is about following the call of Jesus to love the unlovable, to reach the unreachable, and to believe in the power of the Gospel to transform lives, no matter how broken they may seem.
As I prepare to take this step of faith, I ask for your prayers and support. Pray for strength, wisdom, and courage as I walk into this mission field. Pray for the people of Pattaya—that their hearts will be open to the hope and truth of Jesus. And if you feel called to partner with me in this mission through prayer, encouragement, or resources, know that your contribution will play a vital role in bringing light to this city.
Thank you for walking alongside me in this journey. Together, we can witness God’s transformative power at work in one of the world’s most challenging places. Here’s to a 2025 filled with faith, love, and the fulfillment of God’s call!
In His Service,
