Our Summer Youth Camp was held in Potao, Kachin State from April 8-17, 2014, One of the leaders of the Rawang Evangelical Baptist Churches is an alumni of SEABC. His name is Thamaidam Synsar. He and the other leaders invited me to preach and teach the Gospel to the camp held in Potapo, Kachin State from April 8 to 17, 2014. The Camp was attended by 317 young people from different parts of Kachin State. I (bro. Kap) went there by flight and had a wonderful privilege of preaching and teaching the Gospel for three days (April 9 – 11). By God’s grace, over 200 of them accepted Jesus Christ Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.

Southeast Asia Bible College just got a new water pump! Kap Cin Thang, president of the college, recently sent an update to supporters in the U.S.
Letter from President Kap Cin Thang about the Water Pump:
The water supply has been much better since getting the new water pump. We bought 4 new, big buckets for the four dorms. Now there are two buckets in each bathroom. I asked the students today about the water, and they are happy that they now have enough water. They are all very glad and thankful to both of you, Jack and the donors.
I informed them we plan to buy a good, big fan soon. They are very glad and gave thanks to our good Lord Who is our Provider through His people.
Thank you very much for all your wonderful love, kind assistance and continued prayers for the equipping of Southeast Asia Bible College. I am so glad that our brother Terry made a website for our college.

Bicentennial Thanksgiving Celebration
The first American foreign missionaries Dr. Adoniram and Ann Judson arrived in Yangon, Myanmar on July 13, 1813. Thousands of Christians from different parts of Myanmar and some from USA joyfully held the Bicentennial Thanksgiving Celebration in Yangon from Dec. 5-8, 2013. Dr Adoniram Judson has had a great impact on Christians in Myanmar, and we do not have adequate words to express our sincere thankfulness to him and his family. They left their comfortable home, possessions and loved ones to come to an unknown, ignorant and uncivilized people, and identified with those people so that they might win them for Christ. To God be the glory!
Sixth Biennial Graduation of SEABC:
By the grace of God, the sixth Biennial Graduation was joyfully held on Dec. 13, 2013 at 1:00pm – 3:30pm at Judson Church Building, Yangon University Campus. The graduation was graciously and joyfully attended by around 370 people and it went very well. Twenty-six students were graduated. By God’s grace, 136 students had graduated within twelve years (from 2002 to 2013) and almost all of them are serving the Lord as evangelists, pastors, missionaries, Bible teachers, Sunday School teachers, directors of children ministry, Christian books translators, etc. To God be the glory!
