We are a couple from the United States (Portland, Oregon) and we have been serving as missionaries in Bangkok, Thailand, since 2024. Our work here has been centered around anti-exploitation, education, and discipleship. It has been a blessing to see God work in the lives of people here and to witness His kingdom advancing in Thailand and around the world.
JP serves on full-time staff with The MST Project. The MST Project is an international parachurch organization that is registered as a 501c3 in the United States and a non profit society in Canada. MST is focused on mentoring men, strengthening marriages, and teaching truth by helping men anywhere and everywhere to pursue purity, spiritual wholeness, and Christlike maturity. My full-time role with The MST Project involves working with churches, pastors and religious leaders in 25+ countries on 5 continents. My full-time role covers translating MST’s multiple resources into 19 different languages. These resources include the following: The Pursuit of Purity book, RMPP devotional booklets, The Life of a Man of God booklet, RMPP Connect Group Leaders Manual, The Pursuit of Purity Leaders Manual, 5-Day Devotional Series, and other written resources. I also manage the ministry's website, and co-lead a weekly connect group that meets with men from around the world. In addition, I write devotionals for MST’s quarterly devotional booklets, have spoken at local men's groups, share about MST with interested ministry partners, and when the opportunity arises will meet one-on-one with men to mentor and encourage them in their pursuit of purity and Christlikeness.
Brittany serves part-time with The Ezra Project. They provide education and discipleship to Burmese children living in the slums of Bangkok. Because of their immigration status, the children we work with are unable to attend school and have often experienced complex trauma. I serve there as an English and Bible teacher. Drawing on my background in anti-trafficking and anti-exploitation work in Southeast Asia, I also help The Ezra Project develop new ways to prevent exploitation within this community. Brittany also serves part-time with ELM, a ministry that walks alongside women experiencing unplanned pregnancies. We provide free education and one-on-one support throughout pregnancy and into motherhood, helping women care for their spiritual, emotional, and practical needs. I have the privilege of meeting with women, discipling them as they grow in their relationship with the Lord, and helping coordinate resources that support both them and their families.
In our personal lives, we are excited to be entering a new season of parenthood. Brittany is due in January 2027, and we are beyond grateful for this precious gift from the Lord. As we prepare to welcome our baby, we are also facing increased financial needs due to the rising cost of living, changes in consistent financial support, and the additional expenses that come with growing our family. To continue serving in Thailand and making a global impact, we need to raise an additional $2,000-$2,500 per month and are praying for partnerships that reflect the following:
• 10-15 Individuals or families: $100 a month
• 3 churches: $200 a month
Would you keep our family and our ministry in your prayers? We would also ask that you prayerfully consider joining our team of financial supporters. Your partnership allows us to continue investing in men seeking to be more like Christ, children longing for education and hope, and women navigating difficult pregnancies. Thank you for being part of what God is doing in Thailand as we seek to make disciples and share the love of Christ.
