Advocate for Women in the Red Light District

Bangkok, the Buddhist megacity of millions, is categorized as unreached with about 1% Evangelical Christians. Sadly, this international hub is also home to many of the biggest red-light districts in the world. Through many years of prayer and ministry, the Thai church is growing in depth and width, and yet is still an extremely small minority. As locals mobilize outwards into every facet of society, including the sex industry, cross-cultural workers have valuable roles in serving to encourage and empower their efforts. We need those who will lovingly dig deep into the complex social problems surrounding the sex industry of Bangkok. We are looking for relational self-starters willing to cross language and socio-economic barriers to develop pathways for connecting with Thai women who have never heard the gospel.

This placement is for females who have a deep love for people, as the main focus will be building relationships with Thai women in the red-light districts. They will be supporting an existing Thai-lead ministry, which could include going on bar outreaches, following up on contacts made with women in the bars, teaching life skills classes, and participating and supporting the ministry's aftercare rehabilitation program.

Skills:

Relational – Able to build relationships with local people, the team, and partner churches.

Flexible – Moving forward in the midst of drastic changes to schedule and plans.

Self-motivated — finding or making opportunities for relationships and language learning; persevering and diligent in ministry tasks, etc. 

Adventurous — willing to test and be tested by the unfamiliar
