Taking Hands
Many hands have joined Philip’s over the years — outreach teams, churches, families and friends who have crossed oceans to build, paint, play soccer, and sit at the table with the Moken. This page honours those who have taken hands with the mission. If your group has walked with Philip and isn’t listed here, we’d love to hear from you — get in touch via the support page.

Outreach TeamSouth AfricaGlobal Challenge
A missions organisation from Jeffreys Bay, South Africa — "Making Disciples. Shaping Leaders." An outreach team of fourteen visited Koh Phayam in mid-2026, helped build the soccer field, and spent precious time with the Moken children, who performed for them in the church. In August 2026 oom Paul and tannie Engela from Global returned to visit Philip on the island — a wonderful time of eating together, talking together and giving thanks for everything the Lord is doing there. They follow Philip's work and receive his newsletter.

Partnerships take many shapes — a work team for a week, a church that prays monthly, a family that sponsors a boy through the Guardians program. All contact with partners routes through the mission — reach Philip via the support page.
