WHAT WE DO
This project endeavours to supplement local indigenous giving to national evangelists in an effort to stimulate primary mission work in rural Burma.WHAT YOU CAN DO
Burma's minority groups face considerable pressure both from Buddhist groups as well as from government opposition. Many struggle. Churches have been burned to the ground and believers continue to face obstacles at work and school. There are added problems within the Church. Strong, central control in Churches has slowed down much of the evangelistic work in Burma.Cost: £20 a month will help top-up local Burmese giving to stimulate missionary efforts among minority groups. Give to Burma ministries here.
PRAY FOR
Thank God for individual believers and families from among minority groups who have come to the Lord. They risk their very lives. Pray for a breakthrough by the Holy Spirit among each of the resistant groups. Pray too for revival among traditional Churches.

... Dear Friends This is Tun Hlaing, live in the southern chin state, Paletwa. It is the border of Chin and Rakhine states. I was converted into Christianity in 1993, by the Baptist ministers. I joined in Bible school in 2000, then graduate in 2004. I have been serving the Lord in the remote localities of the chin villages in Plaetwa, Mrauk-u, and Minbya of Rakhine state. Since 2007 I founded Ho Christian Mission for the Ho ethnic groups. All the minister are indigenous trained ministers, they are working at the villages, help educations,and bringing the gospel to the animism and Buddhism. By the grace of God, the mission is blessed, and have been found more than 13 small cell-churches. Now we are looking for partnership and we invite you to help us. Look forward your response. Sincerely Tun Hlaing Mission Coordinator |
