Thom and Christine Poovong in Thailand

By International Witness

Focused on building self-sufficient congregations, Tom and Christine Poovong provide pastoral leadership to emerging Christian communities in northeastern Thailand. They have developed income-generation ministries for lay leaders in small house churches and are presently modelling sustainable agriculture with a farmers’ co-op for marketing goods. 

        

 

 Christine Poovong’s favourite crop – purple sticky rice, and the rice harvest.
