Go To Nations Missionary Serving in Thailand
I believe that God knows how to give us the right tools, connect us to the right people, and bring His impartation just as He sees fit for His purposes and glory. These things usually come season by season after He sets a good foundation in us. I can honestly say that I wouldn't be where I am now, serving in the nation of Thailand ministering primarily to the vulnerable and exploited, if it wasn't for my obedience to attend Christ for the Nations Institute.
I was about a two year old Christian when I heard Him calling me out of the boat into a wild adventure with Him. It was thanks to the equipping I received in the School of Missions that I not only was prepared to answer the call to full time missions, but I also made the strategic connection to join my now missions agency, Go To Nations.

Something that was instilled in me while at Christ for the Nations is that Christ is and will continue to reveal Himself to the nations! He uses the willing vessels , those who will say yes to His leading even if the task seems impossible at times. I am currently in Thailand spearheading a movement, Restoration 61, to help empower the body of Christ to advance social justice in a way where Isaiah 61 becomes the standard.
In my journey of faith I am constantly reminded about the things Zechariah chapter 4 speaks of, to remember that it's not by might nor by power but by His Spirit that all things will be accomplished and to never despise small beginnings.The work has just started and my joy comes in knowing He is rejoicing over my small beginnings!
