About the Haechton Family:
Jared and Stacy Haechton and their five children, Wesley,
Micah, Enoch Mercy, and Hope live and minister among the
Isaan People of Northeast Thailand. From 2012 until 2021
they were church planting in the District of Kham Muang, a
rural district in the Province of Kalasin, Thailand. In 2021,
they moved to Udon Thani Province where they are continuing
church planting and pastoral Bible training among churches in
Isaan with The
Center for Leadership Development. They are from Blaine
Christian Fellowship, Blaine, WA and are church planting with OMF
International. The OMF Isaan Team desires to see God
glorified through biblical churches within every district of the
Isaan Region. Jared and Stacy are overjoyed at the privilege God
has given them to be involved in his purpose of drawing the
unreached to himself through a relationship with Jesus Christ!
They are excited and humbled to be a part of a movement to bring
the gospel of Jesus Christ to meet the vast spiritual and
physical needs of the people of Thailand.
About Thailand:
A kingdom since the 13th century, Thailand is unique in
South-East Asia in that it has never been a dependency of another
nation. The word ‘Thai’ actually means ‘Free’. But
despite the title, the vast majority of Thai will never have the
opportunity to hear the greatest message of freedom in the world.
Studies have indicated that less than 2% of the population
is Christian. Of the over 60 million people in Thailand,
research shows that nearly 60% will never have the gospel of
Jesus Christ shared with them. Further, there were 276
districts within Thailand which have no church, and therefore
little to no witness to the gospel.
About Church Planting:
Jared and Stacy are confident that God has a plan to see His
glory proclaimed among the Thai people. In the past 10 years, the
Church in Thailand is growing. Many church and mission leaders
feel Thailand is poised for its first breakthrough in church
growth. However, since only 2% of the population is Christian,
God is raising up those from many nations around the world to
stand alongside the national church and proclaim the good news of
Jesus Christ.
Jared and Stacy Praise God that people are responding to the Gospel of Jesus Christ! They are continuing to work alongside these churches to see them strengthened and leaders appointed, as well as continue to reach out into areas that have no churches.
About Partnership:
Jared and Stacy need people and churches who will partner
with us in ministering to the Isaan people. They are
looking for those who are willing to dedicate time to pray for
their ministry and for the Isaan people. They also need
those who will serve as senders to support us as
they continue in this ministry in Thailand. Would you
consider partnering with the Haechton family in Thailand?
