Thailand
Hi, My name is Makin and I will be serving in Thailand. I grew up in a refugee camp called Noh Poe in Thailand after my family fled persecution in Burma. At the age of six, my father, my two older brothers, and I made the journey to the United States. It was in 3rd grade, during a VBS sports camp, that I first learned about Jesus. Through this experience, I met two Christian families who introduced me to church. It was in Sunday school class in 6th grade that I accepted Christ into my life, and I was baptized in 2015.

I pursued a degree in Sports Management in college, but during my senior year, God called me to the mission field. I am serving in Thailand, using sports as a means to connect with university students, local schools, and children in various homes and orphanages, all for the purpose of sharing the good news of God. Beyond mere play, I seek to build deep friendships through sports. Additionally, I am enthusiastic about establishing a special place for girls, where they can find guidance and spiritual growth.
