Mandisa is a 34 year old South African who joined the Lampang Team at the end of October 2010. She is in Thailand for 2 years as a “Serve Thailand” worker discovering how God can use, grow and equip her for ministry in a cross-cultural context. Earlier, in 2008 she came to Thailand on a short term mission trip that led to her decision to return to "the Land of Smiles".
Mandisa has a postgraduate degree in Labour Relations and has worked as a Healthcare Consultant advising companies and employees on Health and Wellness issues. It was in this role that she came to realise the void in her own life and the need for spiritual fulfilment. She became a committed follower of Christ 6 years ago and as a result of her own struggles as a new believer has felt a strong calling to walk alongside new believers.
