2019 Thailand Missions - nikki's Intro


Sawadeeka, sabai dee mai? (Hello, How are you all?) Just putting into practice some Thai phrases the team has learned before the trip. There are 14 more days until we leave! Thank you all for the support you have shown the team through prayer and/or finances. I had the chance to share with Flight Ministry as well as the young adults as to why I have decided on going to Thailand this summer, and so if you happened to miss my little blurb; there's no need to fear, I will share in a little more detail here.

So the question Why? Well, I have always wanted to go on missions since I graduated high school. But due to college, personal reasons, and financial difficulties I always ended up putting off the idea. To be honest, I didn't even think I was able to commit to the trip this summer because of the opposition of my parents, my own thoughts of needing to get a job, and worry for my own well-being of whether or not I would be able to handle a missions trip at the moment. But through God's grace and a lot of prayer, He made a way for me to finalize my decision on going, while giving me my parents consent, and allowing me to really think over what's more important at the moment in my life.

What I look forward to on this trip, is seeing where God leads me. How he will use me in the group as well as amongst the Thai community. I'm excited to learn most of all, more about our Heavenly Father, Thai culture, my fellow team, and even myself.

I'm blessed to have this opportunity to serve, though honestly, I’m totally afraid/nervous at the same time. It could be because it is all in my mind, but I'm highly afraid of mosquitoes. Partly because I think I am highly allergic to them since I get really bad reactions to bites, and partly because I feel as though my blood is highly sought after by the little rascals (lol).

Getting a brief language lesson by Denise Poon!

Also while the team and I are still preparing for the trip, I hope that you may keep us all in prayer.

Team:
  • Pray that the Thai community would have open hearts and ears to willingly listen to the good news.
  • Pray for spiritual wisdom and preparation of the members.
  • Pray for health, safety, travel, as well as effective ministry as a whole team.

Personal:
  • Pray that I may speak with boldness a clear message, to share the Gospel as the Holy Spirit leads.
  • Pray for refreshment as well as peace of mind. Though there is still a lot for me to learn, that I know I’m not alone and that my uncertainties would not get the best of me.
  • Pray for spiritual maturity, that I would keep in mind that missions should not always be performance driven but I would allow time and space to grow in sanctification.

Thanks so much!
