Ms. Marlene Allen and her family started serving in the northern part of Thailand, in the year 1999, with the purpose of reaching out to those children that had been abused, abandoned or neglected. Seeking to give them a new life they poured their love into the children, giving them hope for their future lives. Starting with a small group of children in 2002 they purchased a property so that these children could have a place they called ‘home’.

          Since 2004 to the present day, Mr. Santisuk Thamvivornkul, often referred to as Pastor Jay, has been serving at Kids Life Ministry, as the Director with his wife Mrs. Chanida Thamvivornkul Chanida who oversees the children’s education. Together they are responsible for the seventy-eight children at Kids Life, the staff and volunteers from different countries. Their hearts desire is to continue developing Kids Life by providing a safe home and hope filled opportunities for needy children.  

          Through the love shown them at Kids Life, the children are brought into an awareness of God’s unconditional and unchanging love for them.  Kids Life Ministry aims to build a strong sense of morality into each child, making sure that each child’s physical and health needs are met. Much care is taken to develop the social skills required by the children for everyday life.

 
          Kids Life aims to provide the best life experiences available, no matter what religion or cultural background the children are from, so that they will be happy and eventually serve their neighbors, friends and country.
