During the recent Christmas season, we had a few Christmas activities in our mission fields worldwide. Let’s take a look at the news from our coworkers in the midst of political turmoil in Yangon, Myanmar.
Due to the ongoing conflicts in northern Myanmar, especially impacting Yangon, our coworkers in Zones 3 and 5 celebrated an early and sweet Christmas in the beginning of December. About 300 adults and children attended the Christmas gathering, where Pastor Ding Nan delivered a message on the significance of Jesus’ birth during Christmas. The children celebrated Christmas through reciting verses, dancing, and singing. The headquarters in the United States specially prepared 300 boxes of fried noodles, drinks, and 100 pairs of slippers for the event, bringing joy to both children and parents.
We thank God for arranging a Christian from the Karen ethnic group to serve as the principal in a public school in Ahsukai Village. On December 11, our coworkers had the opportunity to organize a Christmas event at this government school, sharing the Christmas message with five teachers and 262 students. A partnership was established with the school for future assistance.
During the Christmas period, our co-workers bravely shared the Christmas message with 100 security personnel in the nearby community, distributing Christmas gifts as well. May God open their hearts and let the seeds of the Gospel take root and grow within them.
We are grateful for the dedicated service of Pastor Wang Junxue and Pastor Ding Nan in Zones 3 and 5 in Yangon. They request prayer support for these things:
This concludes the current program. Please continue to follow our YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok channels. Thank you for watching, and see you in the next program.
On the morning of July 22nd, heartbreaking news came in from our Myanmar coworkers. Our beloved Pastor Tung Sze Wah, who was stationed at the Joyful Children’s Home in the suburbs of Myanmar, was struck in the head by a bullet around noon and has passed away.
We thank God for the many partner churches that responded to the call of the Great Commission this summer and answered the call from the Tianshan mountain to participate in the 2024 Summer STM Program. 10 teams successfully completed their missions.
On June 7th, IUCA held its 2024 graduation ceremony at the downtown square in Tokmok. This year marked the highest number of graduates in IUCA’s history, with 69 from the university and 82 from HTC. Thank the Lord for these graduates.
Leaders from GLEC and IUCA joined directors from various Central Asia ministries for the Charity Christ Foundation’s annual board meeting in June to discuss education. They shared the developments of the students over the course of the year.
Since primary education is only four years in Kyrgyzstan, ceremonies were held at multiple schools for fourth grade graduates as well as eleventh years completing their secondary education. The students shared what they had learned during their time.
The gym in Evanovka Christian School serves as a gathering place for volleyball and tennis clubs as well as a home for youth fellowship. The one in Kara Balta holds social and spiritual meetings. The Tokmok gym held a table tennis competition.
The Ukrainian people continue to endure terrible hardships, suffering countless losses every day. UETS collaborates with churches, charities, and organizations to participate in ministry and aid. We need your help with humanitarian efforts and missionary work.
MCCF hosted several events for students to grow in their education and faith. They held science competitions at the Belovodsk school, took the gym’s youth group to the mountains for a fun retreat, and visited an orphanage in Kara Balta among with other activities.
The Faithful Children’s Center in Myanmar faces challenges and requires assistance. The house rented by the center has serious hazards due to limited funds during construction. Termites and insects have hollowed out the bamboo structure and rain leaks through the roof.
