Alek & Alyssa Linquist

Stepping away from their Bay Area tech jobs to follow God’s call in Bangkok, Alek and Alyssa Linquist are serving with International Justice Mission to fight human trafficking in Southeast Asia.

They are working alongside the local team to help protect people in poverty from violence, living out their faith through practical service.

Alyssa serves with IJM’s regional communications team, coordinating efforts across multiple countries and building community support by sharing IJM’s mission. Alek works with the legal and survivor services teams, assisting with ongoing projects and developing partnerships with local industries.

They are grateful for Reality SF’s partnership in this work and for the kingdom friendships they have formed through this mission. Prayers are especially appreciated—for the Linquists, the IJM staff, and the people whose lives are being transformed by God’s power.
