Prayer for what?
In February 2010 my family and I will be taking a large step of faith as I travel to Thailand to do Gods work. I will be leaving Jan 31 and returning home March 2. During that period of time I will be in Thailand serving along side my brother in Christ Daniel Docto "Doc" and other missionaries. I am not going on a pre-defined mission trip where there is a specific task to be accomplished, as my purpose is different than most going on a short-term mission.God called me directly in a vision to go to Thailand to share the Truth of Jesus Christ with the people. I do not know if this is going to be a one time journey, or if this is the start of a new chapter that God is writing through my life. I have knocked on many doors and God has been faithful to open some and close others. Doc has a ministry called Muay Thai Missions; He ministers to a completely unreached Muslim community where there are 0% professing Christians. Doc has been blessed by God to be able to do some amazing things in this area and I am VERY humbled and excited to be able to serve along side of this faithful brother and his wife Zina.
Now for how you fit in...
I believe in the power of prayer. Specifically the prayers of righteous followers of Jesus Christ. I am seeking a team of prayer warriors who will commit to pray for my protection from the adversary, prayer for my family as I am away, and most importantly prayer for the people I will meet. I believe that this prayer support is essential to the success of this trip.
I would like to raise up two teams of 7 people (14 total) who will each commit to pray for these things three days a week. I will create a schedule so that I have these needs covered in prayer by multiple people every day of the week. I know that to ask this is a fairly substantial commitment, so my commitment in return is to work as hard as possible to share the gospel at EVERY opportunity I have, and I will update my prayer team via email and video as often as possible during my trip so that you are able to pray specifically for people and needs, and as part of my team so that you can share in the successes that God brings about through our efforts.
