Missionary
work began in 1975 with the arrival of German missionary Eva Studeman on
April 28, American missionary Jack Hart on May 1, and Japanese missionary
Akira Mitani on July 26.
Missionary Akira Mitani who had first come to Thailand on May 12 returned to
Japan one month later, then came back to Thailand again. First of all, the
missionaries devoted themselves to learning the Thai language while doing
witnessing activity. Many people listened to the Principle but, in many
cases, that was all.
The first member was Lek Thaveetermsakul who joined the church in 1976 while
a junior in medical school. He was witnessed to by German missionary
Wolfgang Schawaller who passed through Thailand on his way to Hong Kong
because of a visa problem.
