    SUPPORT RICK & MYLA

Steve & Nopaluck Cable
Project Leaders, Bangkok

  • Steve and Nopaluck Cable are passionate about enlarging our Thailand career missionary team by adding 15 new high-quality career missionaries who will focus on evangelism and church planting at 15 new locations in Bangkok using the Santisuk English school/cell church model. Only 0.4 percent of the Thai people know Christ as their Savior, and the SES/cell church model has proven to be effective in both winning people to Christ and training up leaders who can then go out and help start new churches.

    SUPPORT STEVE & NOPALUCK

Deb Guzman
Bangkok

  • Deb is reaching Thai Buddhists for Christ through the Santisuk English Language School Ministry through evangelism and discipleship in Bangkok, Thailand. She was previously a career missionary for many years in Mexico and now the Lord is giving her the privilege of working in the ministry in Thailand. Her vision is to learn the language and culture, win students to the Lord, disciple them, start one of the 15 new schools/church plants planned by 2025 and translate Bible study materials in Thai, as well as music for use in the services.

    SUPPORT DEB

Mary Larsen
Bangkok

  • As a faculty member of Baptist Theological College and Cebu Graduate School of Theology (BTC/CGST) since 2001, Mary has had the privilege of training pastors, teachers, and missionaries. I have been a part of the training of missionaries from BSOP (Bethlehem Star of Peace: an organization started by Filipinos to send Filipinos to hard-to-reach nations). BSOP has invited me to be their director of International Training. I now see how the Lord has guided me each step of the way on this challenging journey of following him.

    SUPPORT MARY

Todd & Karen Indehar
Project Leaders, Uttaradit

  • Todd and Karen Indehar are providing leadership for the Thai Peace Foundation. Our goal is to ignite in a passion throughout Thailand for the supremacy of Jesus Christ as their only true Lord and Savior. Please pray that God would unleash his Spirit and his Word in Thailand so that many Thai people, who have traditionally been highly resistant to the gospel, will taste and see that Jesus is good and worthy of their worship. Pray for more church planting missionaries to come to Thailand and for more Thai men to respond to God's call to plant churches here.

    SUPPORT TODD & KAREN

Dustin & Melissa Leland
Project Leaders, Udon Thani

  • Dustin and Melissa Leland have a passion for unreached people groups. With no one to tell them about Jesus, billions of people are facing a Christ-less eternity. Because of this injustice, Dustin and Melissa feel called to share the gospel with them. Their goal is to develop indigenous transformational leaders and to see a gospel movement spread among these people groups.

    SUPPORT DUSTIN & MELISSA

Cory & Brooke Jackson
Udon Thani

  • Brooke and Cory Jackson, along with their four daughters, arrived in Thailand in summer 2022. They will spend their first year in central Thailand, focusing on learning the language and culture and building relationships in the community before joining the team in the Northeast (Isan). Both Cory and Brooke have a passion for discipleship and developing leadership within the Thai church for the ultimate purpose of sparking a gospel movement across the Thai nation and beyond. Their heart is for the least-reached and unreached people groups who have little or no growth or even exposure to Jesus Christ.

    SUPPORT CORY & BROOKE

Joyce Fleck
Appointee, Udon Thani

  • Joyce is currently building a team of prayer and financial partners and aims to be on the field by fall 2023. Shortly before Covid, she visited Thailand and saw firsthand the great need for Christ – and for more laborers – and how God is at work through his people there. Following language school in Thailand, she will be teaching English and partnering with Thai Christians and other missionaries to serve and reach out to Thais with the gospel.

    Please consider joining Joyce’s partnership team through prayer, encouragement, and financial support!

Weerawut Hongsa (Mini)
Cru Thailand

  • I have yielded to God’s call to serve Him full-time as a missionary of Thailand Campus Crusade for Christ because I believe few things remain – God, God’s Word, and the souls of mankind. I want to make my life count.

    One of our ministries is Global Church Movements, which is looking for opportunity to expand His kingdom through church movements by planting churches and building spiritual leaders to disciple others. We have identified 40 church planters and 8 areas of Thailand to plant house churches.

    I have served the Lord as a full-time missionary since I graduated with a B.A. in Economics from Ramkhamhaeng University in 1996.

Paisan Pratumrut (Pastor Paisan)
Blessing Stream Church | Cru Thailand

  • I am currently pastoring Blessing Stream Church, Chiang Rai. In 2012, we started the Sunshine Foundation to prevent human trafficking and child abandonment in Nong Bua Lamphu province.

    I also oversee the Blessing Stream network of churches; since 2006 we have planted 7 churches. As Team Leader of Global Church Movements (GCM) Thailand, a ministry of Cru, I am excited to train the next generation of church planters in Thailand.

    The great joys of my life are my wife Sompit, our two sons, and our granddaughter and grandson. I am working towards a Master of Divinity Degree from IGSL.

    We have been working with Cru Thailand for about 25 years. I currently study at Bethel Seminary (MDiv) and volunteer as a pastor at the Thai Church of Minnesota. After I finish my studies at Bethel Seminary, we will go back to Thailand to continue my work with Cru Thailand, focusing on leadership development.
