Making Him Known Beyond Where We Live

Hong Kong is an international city with strategic location for asia. We have sent teams to various parts of Asia and continue to grow our partnerships globally.

Let’s hear from our Philippines' Family team!

John Moon
“Being super consumed with work/life, it was good to be intentional, to create space for a time out and reflect on having Kingdom purpose with family. We are super privileged to live in Hong Kong: need not worry about our next meal, or having a roof over our heads, having aunties to keep our home stable, we live in the top 1%.
Going on missions at this season of life for me, is a reminder to appreciate the basic things in life, that God is moving everywhere in the world, and that we need to help the marginalized. I love that my kids can experience what I used to experience when I was in youth/ single, my hope is that I can instill the same values in them, to be available for His Kingdom.”

Sue Moon
“I was very encouraged by the impact of God’s work among the abandoned children and teenage moms. Despite their circumstances and hurts in the past, they were being healed and restored in a strong Christian community. It was such a blessing and privilege to join God’s work there and serve people with my children and other families. It felt like heaven on earth.”

Elizabeth Moon (10 years old)
“This mission trip was really meaningful to me. I think God taught all of us that we can use our money to help people instead of using it only for ourselves. I learnt to be more grateful because God gifted my family with so many blessings. I realized that helping a little like donating to an organization or going on a mission trip can impact people in small but meaningful ways. I hope we showed the people in the Philippines that God still cares for them, even though it may not seem like it. I hope we helped people see that Christ is our Savior and that He blessed all of us in some way.”

Ethan Moon (7 years old)
“The trip was really challenging—it was very hot and tiring. But I was thankful for serving people.”

Steve Walsh
I loved how Kids International Ministries embraces the messiness of being a family together. They create a safe and loving environment where people from all walks of life can connect through the simple message of Jesus’ love. I came away encouraged to always be ready to share my faith—whether with men gathered in a cramped jail cell, young children looking for games and candy on the streets of Tondo, or my colleague at work. Wherever we are and whoever is in front of us, our message remains the same: the simple, life-changing love of Jesus.

Selwan Walsh
I’m so grateful for the little meaningful encounters I had with individuals and literally be Jesus’ hands and feet. Wiping the dirt off a boy’s knee who fell down. Clapping for a teenager singing worship karaoke in the rain. Seeing a boy alone sitting at the door during the pizza party. He took my hand and came to join in. Shaking hands with an elderly lady during community feeding and saying I was so happy to get to meet her today. Passing out the hot bowls of chocolate congee. Spinning the little girls around playing ring-a-rosies. Holding hands with the youth girls to pray at evening devotion. The many fist pumps and high fives! It was an honour.

“I liked how friendly the prisoners were and how glad they were that we came to visit.”

Zuleika (12)
“The thing I enjoyed most was the community feeding. It showed how blessed we are to eat whatever we want, when we want when other people are struggling for basic resources and food. I poured the creamer into star shapes on the porridge to make it more special for the locals. Some of them smiled when they saw that.”

Jian (6)
“My favourite part is I made a best friend. We did Spidey-training together. I learnt a new crazy trick. He was a perfect friend. I miss him and will remember him.”

Katherine Vogel
“Short-term missions have always been pivotal in my spiritual growth, and bringing our 2-year-old and 4-year-old alongside our house church to Manila was an incredible gift. I tried to connect the experience to Owen’s life by recalling Last Stop on Market Street and asking if he remembered serving champorado—but his response was simply, “Oh yeah! It looked so yummy! Can I have some, please?” And his favorite part? Playing Uno and swimming with friends. Looking at his response, was bringing young kids still valuable? Absolutely. Even if they don’t grasp every lesson or remember every detail, it sets the tone in our home that serving isn’t optional—it’s valuable to take time out of our holidays to invest in others.”

Ryan Vogel
“Going to Manila with our family gave me a whole new perspective on where our helper is from and what her life looks like back home. Seeing extreme poverty built deep empathy in us and pulled me out of my own small world, shifting my prayers from “God help me” to “God, use me.” It was eye-opening to realize how close these needs are to us in Hong Kong, and how accessible practical support—food, school supplies, simple games, high-fives—can be. The humility of the people we met was deeply moving; they weren’t looking for material things, just connection and love. Taking our young kids was a valuable, stretching reminder that having children shouldn’t hold us back from serving—as a family, serving isn’t optional, it’s who we are. Ultimately, it wasn’t about what we brought, but about joining where God was already working; just by showing up, we experienced His love in a much deeper way.”

“One of the greatest lessons was learning to listen—I told a missionary named Venus that I felt like we weren’t doing much, and when I asked her story, she later said, “This is the first time I’ve shared my whole story with anyone. Thank you. You are making an impact.” Meanwhile, the impact on our own children has been just as profound: our 4-year-old still prays daily for the Philippines and her friends by name, and our 1-year-old dances to Mahal Na Mahal Kita Panginoon and sings the chorus. Going into the trip, I never imagined the lasting impact it would have on all of us.”
