About
One heart, three pillars, one mission
Establishing a presence of the Kingdom of God in Bangkok through prayer, discipleship and the restoration of lives.
We believe that lasting transformation in a city begins with the presence of God, grows stronger through discipleship and is revealed in restored lives.
Our mission in Thailand is born of the desire to see Jesus exalted, the local Church strengthened, Thai leaders raised up, and women who are victims of sexual exploitation and human trafficking finding a new beginning. To that end, we have developed three pillars that go hand in hand, expressing the love and the Kingdom of God in practical ways.
Our vision
To establish a continual presence of the Kingdom of God in Bangkok, cultivating a culture of prayer and worship, forming disciples and local leaders, and fostering the restoration of women in vulnerable situations.
Our mission
To exalt Jesus, strengthen the Thai Church and show the love of God through intercession, intentional discipleship and restoration initiatives that give back dignity, purpose and hope to lives marked by exploitation.
Our three pillars
-
Prayer is the foundation of everything we do. Our House of Prayer is born with the purpose of cultivating a continual culture of worship and intercession in Bangkok, keeping Jesus at the centre of every initiative.
We want to cry out for the salvation of Thailand and of unreached peoples, to uphold the missionary work spiritually and to foster unity among local churches and leaders. We also long to form disciples and intercessors, strengthening local Christians and missionaries in their intimacy with God and in their commitment to the Great Commission.
We believe that mission begins at the feet of Jesus and is sustained by a life of prayer.

Discipleship
Forming disciples and raising up leaders
We believe that the future of the Church in Thailand is bound up with forming mature disciples and local leaders committed to Jesus.
Our heart is to walk alongside Thai Christians, strengthening their faith, developing leadership and equipping them to serve their communities and reach new people with the Gospel. Through intentional relationships, biblical teaching and life in community, we long to contribute to a local Church that is strengthened, united and prepared to fulfil its calling.
We do not only want to see people reached by the Gospel, but disciples who make disciples and leaders who raise up other leaders.

God has entrusted us with pearls to care for.
Like divers searching for precious stones in the deepest places, we believe there are women of immense worth in places where the world often sees only pain, exploitation and abandonment. Our calling is to see them as God sees them: beloved daughters, precious and created with purpose.
Pearls of Thailand exists to bring about an encounter between the Father and these daughters, helping each woman rediscover her identity in Christ and walk towards a new story.
Through intensive discipleship, spiritual accompaniment, inner healing, psychological support and vocational training, we seek to offer concrete paths to restoration. The women are trained in sewing and jewellery making, developing skills that can open doors to a profession, an income of their own and greater independence.
Our vision is for Pearls of Thailand also to become a training and discipleship centre, where women can be restored, prepared for work and accompanied on their journey into a new life in Christ.
We believe that every woman carries a worth that cannot be defined by her past. Our desire is to walk with them until they can live with dignity, hope and purpose.
Maranatha Café is born as a Business as Mission initiative: a business with a missionary purpose that brings together excellence, hospitality and social impact.
More than a coffee shop, we want it to be a centre of restoration, mission and unity in Bangkok. The café will seek to create opportunities for dignified work for women in vulnerable situations, especially survivors of sexual exploitation and human trafficking, offering training, work experience and an environment of welcome and growth.
At the same time, we want to create a place of fellowship for Thai Christians, churches and missionaries from different nations, fostering connection, unity and encouragement for those who serve in Asia.
Through a sustainable business, we long to help sustain the work of restoration, strengthen relationships and show the love of Jesus in the simplest things of everyday life.
Our hallmark will be love, excellence and service. We go on slowly and humbly, changing one world at a time.
One mission, three expressions
The House of Prayer upholds the mission in intercession. Discipleship strengthens the Church and raises up a new generation of leaders. Pearls of Thailand and Maranatha Café express the heart of restoration through care, training and concrete opportunities for a fresh start.
Everything is connected by the same purpose: to exalt Jesus, form disciples and see lives transformed by the Gospel in Thailand.
We believe that when prayer, the Gospel and discipleship go hand in hand, stories are restored, communities are strengthened and the Kingdom of God becomes known.
