MY VISIONS
1. Plant Churches
I have a vision to expand Evangelism based on the local Church according to the will of God. Especially, I have a burden for Myanmar People to receive the Salvation through Jesus Christ. The Union of Myanmar is one of the strongest Buddhist countries in Southeast Asia. Myanmar is often referred to as the land of Pagodas because on every hill or mountain, in the cities or towns or villages, pagodas have been built by the pious Myanmar Buddhists. The main major religions in the country are Buddhism (82.90%), Christianity (8.7%), Islam (3.8%), Chinese (ancestor worshippers) (3%), traditional ethnic religions or other (0.4%) (Johnstone and Mandryk 2001:462).
2. Train Young People for the Ministry.
I feel God is calling me to do youth ministry. I have a vision to bring juvenile delinquents to Christ and I have also a vision to build up and equip the young people in my Church to grow physically, spiritually, and mentally in their lives.
3. Open a Library for Young People to improve their knowledge and wisdom in both secular and spiritual areas.
BIBLE TEACHING AT SUMMER CAMP 2008
I had an opportunity to go back to Myanmar during my summer holidays as God provided my travel fees. It was a good time to fellowship with my wife, my relatives, my friends, and my church members. I had an opportunity to teach the young peoples at Summer Thingyan Camp which conducted by my church during April 11 to17, 2008. I had also an opportunity to preach at Hlaing Thar Yar AG church, Word of Hope AG church and my church. This summer break was a great blessing for me and also my wife, my relatives, my co-workers and my church members. During that time, I had also completed my summer course of Exegesis of Ruth. I really thank God for giving me such a wonderful blessings.

3. My Future Ministry
Violent Cyclone Nagis Hit in in Myanmar
Violent Cyclone Nagis hit in in Myanmar
MAY 03,2008
Most people in Yangon did not believe the weather forecast news about Cyclone because they had no experience on it. They only saw and knew concerning the violent storm in TV, movies, photos and news papers. Before the cyclone, the government TV was announced the weather news. However, everybody did not think that cyclone would be strong. They thought it is just a blowing wind. Consequently, there were severely damaged in Two divisions and Three States in Myanmar after the cyclone. Nearly 20 millions people experienced the difficult situations in their lives. Even though, the cyclone hit only 12 hours, the devastation was so big in the cyclone effected areas. After the cyclone, every view points in that areas were totally changed. So many people were missing, many people were died, many tree were blocked the houses and roads, many houses were became roofless and even the advertisement sign boards were fell down.
Historically, this cyclone was very strong in Myanmar over100 years . Approximately over 70,000 people were died and over 1.5 millions people in Irrayawady Division have urgently needed shelters, foods, clothes, and clean water.
Half of my church, and our four stores multipurpose building's roofs with beams were flew away by Cyclone Nagis. Over 20 churches under our denomination in the cyclone effected areas were almost totally destroyed by it. Now, we are helping those churches by praying, encouraging, and supporting finances.
My Testimony and Vision for My Future Ministry
My Testimony and Vision for My Future Ministry
I was born on the 1st of August, 1971 in Yangon, Myanmar. Since my parents and all my close relative were Buddhists, I was raised in Buddhist family. In 1981, my father and mother accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior through the ministry of an evangelist. When my parents became Christians, we, all the children, also joined them in attending Church on Sunday morning. However, I had not had an assurance of Salvation until I was 15 year old.
In 1985, the unexpected dead of my father in his immature age brought a financial crisis to our family.
After our house was bunt down, we took refuge in our intimate friends’ houses. My mother, sister and youngest brother took refuge in one house, my younger brother took refuge in another house and I took refuge in my Pastor’s house. Since we had no other help, we had to trust in God alone for our survival. God miraculously provided all our needs.
In 1989, I heard the calling of God to become a minister and I went to Evangel Bible Institute in Myitkyina to be equipped for my future ministry. After finishing my diploma in Theology courses I served as an associate pastor at Evangel Church, Gyogon. I also served as a treasurer of No.1, Yangon Section that is under D.C.3 from 1996 to 1998. Then I was elected as a treasurer of D.C.3 from 1999 to 2007. While ministering at Evangel Church, Gyogon, I had the opportunity to do my Bachelor of Science and M.A in Ministry. After finishing my M.A, and having served at the Church for 15 years, my General Council endorsed me to continue my M.Div. in Asia Pacific Theological Seminary so that I may be equipped to become more effective in my future ministry. Upon completion of my M.Div., I plan to return to Myanmar, and to plant Churches in Buddhist areas. I also have a plan to train young people for the ministry.
Your faithful prayer and partnership for my future ministry is deeply appreciated.
Thank you very much.
May the Lord richly bless you all!!!
