Praying Partners #36 Update from the SEABC

Dear valued Praying Partners,

By God’s grace, all the students and faculty members are fine and the Bible school is going well. College’s Day of Prayer: We had the College’s Day of Prayer (Fasting prayer) on August 16th. Many of the students shared about God’s goodness in their lives and we all gave thanks to our good Lord for His guidance and providence for all the needs of the Bible school. We prayed for all partners and friends of SEABC that the Lord will continue to abundantly bless them and mightily use them for His Kingdom and glory. We also prayed for the Gospel revival in Myanmar and around the world. Medical check-up for some students: Dr. Se Sen, a born again believer from Canaan Gospel Church had times together with some of the Bible students at the Chapel on July 27, 2014 and had medical check-up (e.g. blood pressure, flu, some miner deceases, etc) of 10 students. It’s been a great help for the students who came from rural areas and who never had a medical check-up.

Gospel Outreach Ministry of SEA Bible College:

The SEABC’s students are divided into four groups – Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. There are 15 or 16 students in each group. Each group is doing Gospel outreach ministry every weekend, especially on Sunday by distributing Gospel tracts and sharing about the Gospel mostly at the Yangon seaport. The students usually distribute Gospel tracts to at least 1500 people within 2 hours. They also have the privilege of sharing the Gospel on the boat / small ship. And one of the faculty members (sometimes the President of SEABC) and the senior students usually have Gospel trips to Shwepye-thar twice in one month. The students teach songs and lead praise and worship in the worship service of Shwepye-thar Children Home. The children really enjoyed singing and listening to the message preached by the preacher.

Each group (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) competed in all games and shows (memorizing Bible verses, Song competition, drama, games, etc.). All students enjoyed the games and shows. The Luke group won the first prize.

Visiting Lecturer:

Dr. Dale Schreiber from Lombert, IL, USA comes to Myanmar once a year since 2007. He taught the book of Galatians to third and final year students this year. During his stay in Yangon, he preached at Canaan Gospel Church two Sundays, teaching adult Sunday School at Hebron Assembly, and teaching Salvation and Christian Life at Dala, beyond Yangon river. All the Bible students and many believers were greatly blessed through the teaching and preaching of Dr. Dale. May the LORD continue to mightily use and abundantly bless him and his wife Mary for His glory Kingdom!

Gospel Meeting:

By God’s grace, we had a Gospel meeting at Dala on August 24th(Sunday). The meeting was attended by around 45 people. In the morning session, Dr. Dale Schreiber taught about the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Satan. He powerfully preached at the Sunday worship service. In the afternoon session I (Kap) taught about salvation. By the work of the Holy Spirit, 10 people accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord before the end of the afternoon session. Please pray with us for the spiritual growth of those new converts and the other Christians. Please pray also for bro. Naw Naw and his family. He is pastoring a home church at Dala.

SEABC’s Literature Ministry:

By God’s grace, we translate some effective and useful Christians books from English to Myanmar language. And we give Bibles (NT & the whole Bible) to believers, missionaries, and unbelievers who need the Bible and who hunger for the Word of God. We are so grateful to our good Lord for providing the needs for this literature ministry.

To God be the glory!
