ministry of Youth With A Mission - Thailand. Born of a vision to
reach Thailand with the Gospel and a calling to the students of

teaching, Bible studies, worship service, community activities and
prayer/cell groups.

What's

 A
New Leadership Team:
Gan Piawong (middle) from Thailand, Boy Changlek (left) also from
Thailand and Dagmar Geiger from Switzerland are leading BJD with
our other staff - Kai, Pooy, Aeow, Saeng and Laep. Meet
our BJD Staff HERE!
Discipleship
House:
The
student center is now home to about 30+ new believers, providing
a constant God-filled atmosphere and discipleship care.
Evangelism
Teams:
Our
staff have provided training and led teams with our students to
their home villages. This has led to several members in our student’s
families receiving the Lord. It has also given us opportunities
to help serve pastors and workers in rural areas.
Community
Help:
We
have worked with short term teams and other local YWAM ministries
to serve our local community.
How
can you be involved?
We host several short-term outreach teams per year. These
can be involved in campus evangelism, open-airs, prayer, practical
help (repairs, painting, cleaning), etc. Musical and artistic
teams can be particularly effective.
We also welcome individuals (both YWAM and non-YWAM) that would
like to come and serve the ministry here on a short-term basis.
Short-term:
from 2 weeks up to 6 months, these will be considered on a case-by-case
basis. People with a heart for evangelism and discipleship, Bible
teaching, English-teaching abilities, musical skills and/or handyman/carpentry
skills.
