Reaching Bangkok - Engaging an Urban Megacity

About This Project

“To be Thai is to be Buddhist,” is a phrase often heard in Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand which is home to more than fifteen million people. In this prominent and growing city less than 3% of the population identify themselves as evangelical Christian. The majority of Thais in Bangkok spend their days in devotion to idols and spirit worship. 

Your gift to the Reaching Bangkok project will enable the work of these important outreach efforts:

(1) University outreach engagement amongst the more than one million university students in Bangkok with a focus on evangelism, discipleship and church planting through English teaching.
(2) A job corps program focused on evangelism, discipleship and church planting in the red-light districts which are predominant throughout Bangkok.
(3) A media initiative centered on creating gospel-focused content and outreach for new and existing churches to build the kingdom, disciple seekers and plant churches.
(4) Mobilization of existing local churches to share the gospel, make disciples and plant churches in each of the 50 districts of Bangkok.
(5) Outreach and evangelism among the sizeable migrant communities throughout Bangkok which include Chinese, Myanmar, Lao, Cambodian and others.

Give today to spread God’s kingdom throughout Bangkok and, from there, to the rest of Thailand and the world!

*This project was formerly called “Bangkok City Church Planting.”
