[Editor’s note: individual pastor’s pages may be updated more sporadically as telephone and internet lines are not consistently accessible, and communication is becoming increasingly more challenging due to the political situation. We are in contact with our field director, and he is communicating with the pastors in their fields to provide support and encouragement. Please remember these believers in your prayers.]
Young people from our churches diligently study in Bible College led by our pastors and professors. During the years of education they learn theology and church leadership. They are also trained in sharing the gospel so they can serve as evangelists in the community where they participate in the local church.

Flooding in Myanmar
The weather can be extreme at times, and there is little relief from local government sources. The country remains in a civil war. Our churches have become the immediate lifeline for many community members. This also opens many doors to proclaim the gospel. We have often heard testimonies that the first interaction with Christians was the result of a catastrophe like flooding or a fire. Then, the people wanted to know why the Christians were generous and compassionate to those who did not attend their churches. That opened doors to sharing the gospel, and many people have placed their faith in Jesus. Twenty-eight students are currently living on the campus of our Bible College during this catastrophic flooding. Your support brings encouragement as they realize they are not alone but are loved by the greater body of Jesus Christ worldwide.
Your donation to our Emergency Relief Fund enables us to support catastrophes as they occur.

As we are encountering political and economic crises, the prices of things are increasing almost every day. This inflation has affected my church members and the people around us; many are jobless and so have no income. There are a lot of robbers, thieves, and pickpockets everywhere. .. (Continue Reading)
With guiding fundamentals and nurturing foundations of trust, a Bible School was created so that church leaders and evangelists are trained to expand the outreach of the gospel. The model of supporting national pastors has proven fruitful in Myanmar. There are many areas that still need an evangelical church.
As our network of national pastors increases, we are expanding outside of the capital into the difficult and unreached regions of Myanmar. These areas lack basic infrastructure, roads, electricity, and communications; many times, they are also closed access — restricted to foreigners — but are areas national pastors can reach because they are citizens and know the culture and how to live within the extreme conditions. Our work continues to grow in Myanmar, and your help in supporting national pastors makes that possible.
