Music and Faith at House of Grace Thailand

Global Servants

When girls arrive on campus in Thailand, they may practice Christianity, Buddhism, or other tribal religions.

Our prayer is for every girl to accept Jesus Christ as her savior, have a relationship with Him, and be a witness of God’s saving power to her family and community. Global Servants’ goal is to encourage a sense of heritage appreciation and cultural pride in our girls, outside of their spiritual identity. Everyone that works at House of Grace Thailand and Ghana is a national of their respective countries. In Ghana, the staff is Asante, and in Thailand, the team is mostly Akha. Tribal customs or traditions are familiar to the staff. Your giving allows self-confidence, heritage appreciation, and cultural pride the opportunity to exist in all of our girls.


Because of your generous donations and support in Thailand, the girls participate in regular Thai music lessons. The instructor teaches: Phin (similar to 3 string guitar), GrajaBpi (4 strings similar to a lute), Saw Duang (an instrument played with a bow), and the Khlui Phiang aw (Thai flute), and several other instruments. This class is about a lot more than music.

There is a direct correlation between music and language: the ability to distinguish different pitches trains your ears for the nuances and subtle tones of the language, translating into an improvement in discriminating between spoken words. As the girls learn to speak Thai, English, Chinese, and Japanese in addition to their native tribal language, subtle differences are valuable.

Sometimes, the impact of a mission is suddenly clear—years of prayer and faithful support coming together in a powerful outcome.  Today, we celebrate one of those moments. Four young women from House of Grace-Ghana— Esther, Martha, Paulina, and Zuwera —have officially matriculated, stepping into a new season as university students. This is more than an academic milestone. It is the fulfillment of hope, the fruit of perseverance, and a powerful testimony of what God can do through faithful partnership.

The sound of construction is beginning to fade. Where there was once a construction site—filled with tools, materials, and long days of labor—there now stands something beautiful. The new dormitory at House of Grace-Thailand is nearly complete, and with every final detail, a quiet sense of anticipation is growing. Soon, this building will be filled with life. Not just activity—but purpose. Not just movement—but transformation. Because this dorm is not simply a structure. It is a place where girls will find hope.
