Pastor Salila Gonmei
Salila is, first of all, a very devoted wife and mother. She also shares the same passion for the work of the gospel as her husband, Pastor Nathan, and is a constant source of encouragement, love, and support.
Having been a Buddhist before she came to Jesus, she has a unique, relevant, and effective way of presenting the gospel to the Thai people. Ever since her salvation experience, she has personally led many Thais to Jesus and encouraged their continuing walk with the Lord. Her hunger to know and walk with God has caused many to be inspired. Her relationship with Jesus Christ has fueled a deep passion to see Thailand impacted with the Gospel of Grace.
Salila co-pastors with Pastor Nathan and translates all of his sermons into Thai.
