Ministries

Phang Nga Province - Khao Lak - Takuapa

We believe every believer has a role in God's global story. That's why we're inviting teams to step into a mission field where the Gospel is still unknown to many.

Our Vision:

To see both local and international Christians equipped and mobilized to bring the Gospel to the least reached. This includes:

  • Translating the Bible into unwritten tribal languages
  • Partnering with Discipleship Training Schools (DTS) to send students on 1 to 3-month outreaches to unreached areas
  • Hosting short-term teams to experience the front lines of mission
  • Engaging local communities—especially minority groups—with love and truth
  • Strengthening and encouraging local believers already serving on the ground

Where We Are: Khao Lak, Thailand

Nestled on Thailand's Andaman Coast, our site rests at the gateway of a peaceful surf town—ready to be a launching point for purpose-filled mission.

  • Strategic location: Easy access to local Thai and tribal communities and nearby countries like Myanmar and Malaysia
  • Purpose-built property: We can host outreach teams of up to 13 people
  • Deep local connections: We partner with area churches, local ministries, and the broader YWAM network

What Outreach Can Look Like

Every outreach is different, but common opportunities include:

  • Daily worship and intercession
  • Ministry in tribal villages—sharing stories, praying for the sick, encouraging new believers
  • Partnering with local house churches through teaching, prayer, and relationship-building
  • Joining our team in exploring new tribal groups, helping lay the foundation for future Bible translation work

Who We Are

Our core is two families—Matt & Alicia and Jay & Kay—who have come together with a shared desire: to see the Gospel break through in the deep south of Thailand and go from there to other unreached regions of the world.

Matt & Alicia have spent the past four years ministering among the Moken (Sea Gypsy) tribes of Phang Nga. Their vision is to see God's Word translated into all three Moken languages within the next three years.

Jay & Kay also bring four years of local experience, carrying a burden for the unengaged peoples of the 10/40 Window. Their focus is on mobilizing teams and developing local leaders to carry the Gospel into some of the hardest-to-reach places on Earth.
