RICH BINNING

Teacher/ Basketball Coach

Southeast Asia

“A Game Changing Narrative”

Starting in August 2026, I will begin my role as a teacher and coach at Grace International School in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I will be teaching a Sports Leadership Class designed to develop young leaders who wish to create a positive influence in the world for Christ. The Sports Leadership program allows students to refine vital

leadership skills by serving younger students and leading outreach projects within the local Thai community.

Grace International Christian School was founded to meet a critical need within the mission community. Committed individuals serving across Southeast Asia and beyond have encountered the difficulty of returning to their home countries due to a lack of educational options for their children.

I am thrilled to return to teaching and coaching. It is invigorating to utilize basketball as a means to impact the lives of vulnerable children who are at risk of sexual exploitation. Guiding youth to reach those who have yet to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and assisting in “changing the narrative” for children and their families throughout Thailand.

I would be grateful for your prayers and financial support.
