Sponsor Letter

Good Day!

This is the day that the Lord has made. In Him we can rejoice and be glad! Our God is showing himself to people each minute of every day. He is using you and me to spread the word of His glory through our actions, words, and attitudes.

I am Krystle Reiber, currently working as a social worker for a foster care and adoption agency. I have experienced the Lord mold me as He reveals Himself to abused children, substance abusers, adults in domestic violent situations, and expectant parents who are making adoption plans for their unborn children. I am forever grateful for the opportunity to serve in the ministry of Bethany Christian Services. As I continue with this passion for the broken in Colorado, God has begun to do a new work in me as He is leading me to an extension of this service.

As I open up my hands to the Lord’s will in my life, my heart has been drawn to a ministry, through Missions to the World (MTW), in Bangkok, Thailand. This country contains approximately 60 million people (11 million live in Bangkok and only one percent of the population professes their faith in Jesus Christ. The people in Thailand seem perfectly happy; however, as a whole this population is spiritually hopeless and broken. The city contains much child-trafficking, drug addicts, homelessness and prostitution. The common religious belief of the people is to live a life of good merits earning an eternity in heaven. This belief saddens my heart as they have yet to realize the free gift of salvation that they can attain through a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ.

Today I am excited to share with you how the Lord is working through a small team of Thais and Americans as missionaries in Bangkok, Thailand. The team is formed to share the spiritual hope of Jesus Christ through prayers, words, attitudes and actions. The ministry is in its beginning stage of planting Christian churches. The team is teaching English at a school, growing a campus ministry, having weekly worship meetings, and holding a weekly children’s ministry and kid’s club. The missionaries to Thailand are coming along side the few Christian Thais and helping them build the body of Christ within Bangkok. Ultimately they are equipping the small Christian population in Bangkok to share Jesus Christ within their own city as well as throughout the rest of Thailand.

The Lord has prompted my heart to physically assist my Thai teammates in sharing the hope and peace we have in the one true God. The Lord is leading me into this country so I seek only after His will.

Christ never intended for individuals to be in service, alone. Would you seek the Lord’s will for your part in this ministry? The ministry is in need of partners in both the financial and prayer area. For God to be glorified, I cannot enter this service alone. I have enclosed a response card for you to use in the event that as you pray, God leads you to join me. Once I step foot into Thailand, I will be sending monthly updates to all who are in service with me to God’s children in Thailand.


To God be the Glory,

Krystle Reiber
