Ministry

This trip will start with awesome fellowship with the believers of Bible Church Thailand.

You will spend a weekend in Pattaya, a lovely beach city, with mostly first generation believers and non-believers from the Thailand church family. You’ll enjoy great fellowship, meals, fun activities, time to share your faith, powerful spiritual messages and worship…and of course time at the beach!

In Bangkok you'll witness and learn about typical Buddhist worship, spend time with the Thailand ministry team members, and also minister to college students and other youth. You will simply use English as an evangelism tool to have fun with the students while also having the opportunity to showcase your faith to them.

You will also stay in the ancient city of Ayutthaya where we will spend time with believers and non-believers, share our faith, have fun activities together, and do some ministry at a local Muslim/Buddhist elementary school.

Your time will be filled with exciting outreach and fellowship opportunities throughout your time in Thailand.

Of course we’ll make sure that you get to enjoy some fun activities too, like visiting a typical Thai weekend market, playing with some tigers and/or riding on elephants!

Be ready for a Spirit-filled, meaningful, and fun trip!

While in Thailand you can expect to:

Have great fellowship with first-generation Christians, and missionaries who are laying it all on the line!
Experience the incredible Eastern culture of the world: You will taste, smell, and experience something completely new almost every day, as you visit different markets, landmarks, and people.
Be exposed to a spiritual darkness that will break your heart for the lost like never before, as you see people sacrificing to Buddha, bowing before Hindu gods, and worshiping idols and spirits.
Enjoy Christian worship, prayer, small groups, outreach and/or children ministry with Thai believers. You will become part of a ministry that will touch your heart, and change your life forever!
