Our Vision

For over 190 years, foreign missionaries have worked in Thailand, yet only 0.77% of the population are believers in Jesus Christ. In a nation of over 65 million people, there are just over 500,000 Christians, and only 6% of the 85,000+ villages in Thailand have a church.

Research shows that Thai people are the most effective at reaching their own communities for Christ. Thai Christians can start more churches in two weeks than 300 missionaries can in a year, and they can do it for much less money.

To make a significant impact, we focus on encouraging, resourcing, and enabling Thai Christians to become effective church planters. This is our primary goal and purpose, and it’s why we partner with indigenous Christians in all our evangelism, discipleship, and church planting activities.

What People Say?

Gregg Nicholson

“I enjoy working with Dwight on the Thailand Evangelism and Church Growth Committee. His cultural experience of growing up in Thailand and his ability to speak Thai has allowed him to be immediately accepted by the Thai pastors as one of them. The technical gifts he brings to the TEC are greatly needed and appreciated. The mapping and resourcing Dwight provides is fueling the national movement and helping leaders plan strategically to saturate the country with churches.”.

Missionary in Thailand for 30 years

Dr. Thira Janepiriyaprayoon

“I am very encouraged to see Dwight to serve the Thai national church. Dwight’s parents played a big role in the early years of my ministry and were a great encouragement to my wife and I. We are excited what God is doing in Thailand these days and I am confident God called Dwight and Mary Kay to Thailand to play a significant role in these events”

"I do not know how many people let you know how valuable your work is, but let me be one of them. Your labor of love in the Lord is such a help in keeping the need of this precious nation in front of us. In a world of constant need, it becomes easy to miss the need right in front of us. It is easy to minimize the ongoing need of Thai people to know the God Who loves them through a relationship with Jesus. Thank you for your work and diligence to keep these important statistics and tools in front of us."
