DTS Graduation and Family Update! 👶🏻 : November - January 2026 Newsletter
We wanted to take a moment to share a brief glimpse into what the Lord allowed us to be part of over the last two months. In short, it was jam-packed, stretching, and deeply encouraging—and we’re grateful to God that you stood by us in both prayer and financial support during this incredible time.

"New Songs of Praise": September-October 2025 Newsletter
A young boy.
A sea of people dressed in ceremonial white attire—symbols of purity—filled the streets of Trang. It was chaos. Hundreds were shouting, dancing, and pounding drums. Yet in that moment, through the thick haze of smoke and the rattling sounds of firecrackers, a young boy’s eyes found mine, and everything seemed to stop.

From Trang to the Nations: God’s Ripple Effect | June-August 2025 Newsletter
Revelation 7:9 shows the end in sight: every nation, tribe, people, and language before the Lamb. This means carrying the gospel to every nation—a vision still unfolding today.
This year, God brought forth something historic: the first-ever DTS in Trang. In the south of Thailand, Christians are less than 1%.
In our school, students from around the world will be transformed and prepared to reach the unreached. Together, we will be a part of making Revelation 7:9 come true!

King Over Every Spirit | May 2025 Newsletter
In Thailand, fear of unseen spirits grips many hearts. But when Jesus steps ashore—everything changes. Like the demon-possessed man in Mark 5, people here are encountering the authority of Christ. Strongholds are being exposed, identities restored, and lives set free. Your partnership is helping advance the Kingdom, bring healing, and proclaim the name of Jesus where He is not yet known. Thank you for standing with us.
