STM Thailand – Mae Sot 2015

An adventure awaits you in Thailand!

Mae Sot sits just border of Thailand and Burma, a stone’s throw from “No Man’s Land”, the strip of land not claimed by either nation. Residents of this area are Burmese refugees who Thailand refuses to accept into their population. Technically not citizens of either country, they live in crudely made huts and are governed by the “chief” of the area.

Uprooted, they are essentially an abandoned people.

These families need to know they are wanted.

When you join us in Thailand, you can bring hope to men, women, and children who feel forgotten. Share the truth that their true citizenship isn’t in this world, and that they they are never alone.

Whether it’s visiting a brick-making or leper village, spending the day in Burma, working in the Burmese Refugee Youth Center, teaching English or creative arts, VBS, ministry in the Muslim community, or even an adventure at a local cave/waterfall, your team will live and share the Gospel with your every breath.

They’ve escaped a country torn by the longest running civil war the world has ever seen, only to live in a nation refusing to acknowledge their existence. Hope for education, help from the government, and bright futures is laughable, an impossible dream.

It’s time these men, women, and children know they aren’t forgotten. Will you come?
