[Give to another project](https://withinreachglobal.org/donate#projects) × ## By connecting people to places of ministry, *this van helps expand gospel access one journey at a time.* This van keeps ministry moving where the gospel is needed most. More than a vehicle, this van helps move people, ministry, and the message of Jesus forward. [Fund a local missionary](https://withinreachglobal.org/project-ministry-van#missionary) The impact ## Carrying the mission further This van helps turn ministry opportunities into gospel impact by carrying teams, leaders, and resources to the places where outreach, discipleship, and church planting are taking place. ![van5](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van5.jpg) ![van1-2](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van1-2.jpg) ![van2-2](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van2-2.jpg) ![van4-2](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van4-2.jpg) - Transports mission teams, interns, and staff to ministry sites across northern Thailand - Supports rural outreach, urban evangelism, leadership training, and church-planting efforts - Reduces costly vehicle rentals and driver expenses - Preserves mission trip and internship income for ministry expansion - Strengthens long-term gospel work among unreached communities ![van9](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van9.jpg) The need ## Transportation for the frontlines of mission We regularly send teams, interns, and staff to ministry sites across northern Thailand for outreach, discipleship, leadership training, and church-planting efforts. But without a dedicated vehicle, transportation depends on rentals, hired drivers, and added travel costs that can quickly consume valuable ministry resources. ![van7](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van7.jpg) The idea ## A practical tool for gospel access By acquiring a 15-seat ministry van, Within Reach Global creates a reliable transportation solution for teams, interns, and staff serving across northern Thailand. The van supports outreach in both urban and rural settings, strengthens the ministry’s ability to host short-term teams well, and makes leadership trainings and church-planting trips more efficient. Owning a van allows us to redirect more resources toward evangelism, discipleship, and support for local missionaries serving among unreached communities. ![van8](https://withinreachglobal.org/hubfs/van8.jpg) The impact ## Expanding the reach of ministry The ministry van is now woven into the daily rhythm of outreach and discipleship across northern Thailand. It carries short-term teams, interns, and staff to village ministry, campus outreach, leadership trainings, prayer gatherings, and church-planting efforts, making it possible to serve multiple locations with greater flexibility and consistency. You have questions ## Everything you need to know Who benefits from this project? This project benefits both the teams serving with Within Reach Global and the unreached communities they are helping reach. It supports missionaries, interns, and ministry leaders while enabling more gospel outreach, discipleship, and church-planting efforts across northern Thailand. What lasting impact does this project create? Beyond meeting transportation needs, the ministry van strengthens the long-term sustainability of gospel work. By reducing recurring travel expenses, Within Reach Global is able to preserve more resources for reaching the unreached, training leaders, planting churches, and equipping local believers for ongoing ministry. How does this project advance the Great Commission? The van helps bring the gospel to places where access remains limited by making it easier to move people, resources, and ministry teams into strategic ministry locations. It strengthens evangelism, discipleship, leadership development, and church planting—helping extend gospel witness among communities with little or no access to Jesus.
