Who we are
Game was born and raised in a Buddhist family in Sanpatong, Thailand. Game heard the gospel for the first time through an evangelism and discipleship ministry on his college campus. Game trusted in Jesus Christ in 2011 and was baptized in 2012. He began serving with his local church, sharing the gospel, making disciples, leading worship, teaching Bible studies, and going on mission trips.
Katie was born and raised by a Christian family in the Bible Belt of the United States. As a pastor’s kid, she grew up in the church. Katie put her faith in Jesus at the age of seven, but she truly surrendered to Him as Lord of her life at the age of nineteen. Katie was involved in North American and international missions with her home church, New Salem Baptist Church, throughout her youth. In 2010, God called Katie to long-term overseas missions. After graduating from college in 2013, God called Katie to serve in Thailand.
Game and Katie met at church in October 2014, when Katie came to Thailand as a missionary. Eventually, we became friends and fell in love as we served in the church together. On January 20, 2018, we got married in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Game was the only known believer in his village, until God called us to start serving Him there in 2018. We began by sharing the gospel and discipling five Jesus seekers in Game’s parents’ garage, one of whom was Game’s mom. God expanded the ministry as more people professed faith in Jesus and the first believer was baptized in June 2019.
God has called us to Game's village to share the gospel, make disciples of Jesus Christ, and start and pastor a healthy, multiplying house church of Northern Thai believers. In January 2020, we stepped out in faith and obedience to do this ministry full-time.
Since then, we've seen more than 20 people profess faith in Jesus Christ in Game's village! God has raised up a building in the village, in which our family lives and our church meets. And we’ve been blessed with two beautiful children.
We’re grateful and humbled to be a part of all God is doing in Sanpatong, Thailand. And we can’t wait to see how He continues to expand His Kingdom in Northern Thailand. To God be all the glory!
Other seeds fell on good soil and produced fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times what was sown.
Matthew 13:8
What we do
God has given us the calling, vision, and passion to share the gospel and make disciples of Jesus Christ in Game’s home village and other neighboring villages in Sanpatong.
We currently lead and disciple a group of around 20 professing believers, 10 of whom have been baptized.
We’re trusting God to use us to pastor a healthy house church of local Northern Thai believers who have been baptized, obey and follow God, and make disciples.
Our prayer is to see believers join the house church in Game's village and go out to make disciples and start house churches in other villages.
