Staff-team

Ek & Becky Sangchuto

I have been involved in Children and youth Ministry since 1999. In the year 2003 I met my wife "Becky" during my trip to Canada to staff a "Principle In Children And Youth Ministry School". At the time she was a nurse in Canada. After that meeting our relationship developed more and more and then in October 2005 we got married in Calgary, Alberta in Canada. Shortly after that, we moved to Bangkok, Thailand. We are continuing to do what God is calling us to do here Thailand. We also have a son, Moses! Our heart's are to see children and youth in Thailand grow in their relationship with God. We would like to see more children and youth workers being trained for ministry and fulfill God 's calling in their lives for children and youth, especially in the area of involving the families.

Lia van der Feest

Hi, my name is Lia van der Feest, from the Netherlands, God has given me a heart to work with children to bring them closer to His heart. I did my DTS in 1999 in the Netherlands, after that I was involved in several short term mission projects and lived 1 year in South Africa, where I served with Beautiful Gate ministry. I arrived in Thailand in November 2008 to do the PCYM school. I want to see children come to know Father God as their Daddy and Jesus as their best friend and Savior.In working with Kings Kids in Thailand I will be able to serve the children and work together with Thai people to see the next generation to come to know Jesus, as well as their families, communities and this nation!

Kwan Piwthong

 Hello everyone, I'm Kwan. I'm from a small village in Yasothon province, northeast of Thailand. I came to know the Lord through university. Since then I have joined working with YWAM over the last 8 years. My heart is to see Thai people come to know the Lord, especially children, young people and families. My heart is also want to see more Thai people being trained to work for this generation and understand their calling to work with children and young people.

Zee Phaingam

Hi there, my name is Sumarut Phaingam but you can call me "Zee". I come from the province of Kamphaeng Phet which is located in the central part of Thailand.
I came to know God through an outreach team that came to the University where I have studied. After I graduated from the University, I decided to take DTS or Discipleship Training School. To get to know God and the plan God had for me. After DTS, I decided to take another training school which was called "PCYM" or "Principles in Child and Youth Ministry". I got to understand the heart of God for children, teens and families. I was so encouraged and excited for new passion that God had filled into my life. After I done PCYM, I didn’t decide what to do yet so I looked for work outside and then worked for about 10 months. Then God had been spoken to me to come back on mission field. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was His calling because I had no money or support if I had to quit my job but because God said to have faith in Him so I am now back on mission field again and serving along with King’s Kid.
