Dear Praying Partners,

I pray and hope you all are fine. By God’s grace, the Bible College is going well.

LOVE, JOY, PEACE FESTIVAL (Children Crusade):

The Children Crusade was held by Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) at Myanmar Convention Center in Yangon on October 22, 2016 and the Crusade was attended by over 16,000 children. By the wonderful work of the Holy Spirit and the power of the Gospel message, thousands of those children came forward and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord. Praise the Lord! Those children had been heading to eternal Hell, but they had turned to the eternal Heaven on that day (October 22, 2016) by accepting Jesus Christ Who is the only way to get to Heaven. By God’s grace, SEA Bible College students effectively participated at the Crusade as Counselors. Please continue to pray for the follow up work for those new converts that they will become faithful followers (disciples) of Christ and to do His Great Commission. To God be the glory!

We had Freshman Welcome Service at SEA Bible College’s Chapel hall on June 15th, 2016 at 2:00pm – 4:00pm. All faculty members graciously attended the service and each of them preached a short message for the students. And each new student came forward and introduced himself/herself to the lecturers and all students. The final year students sang a welcoming and beautiful song especially for the freshman (new students). Mr. Nay Linn Soe and Ms. Naw Lay Wah Soe also sang a special number. Mr. Kap (the President of the College) had a welcoming speech and short message. Then, we all stood up and prayed together to the Lord for His guidance, provisions, protections, and the continuous effectiveness of the teaching/equipping ministry of SEA Bible College.

Dear Praying Partners,

This is a ministry report of brother Thang Suan Khai (Alumni of South East Asia Bible College) translated by brother Kap Cin Thang.

Gospel Trip: Alan-ok

Missionary brother Kap Do Nang, some other believers and I had a Gospel trip to Alan-ok, Irrawaddy Division for two days last March. We preached the Gospel to unbelievers and some nominal Christians. Some of them realized that salvation cannot be earned by human efforts but by the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross. BUT they did not make decision to accept Christ as their personal Savior and Lord. Please pray with us for the salvation of those who have heard the Gospel.

Summer Youth Camp in Kale town:

By the grace of God, I had the wonderful opportunity of getting involved in the Summer Youth Camp held in Kale town from March 28 – April 1^st, 2016. The camp was attended by over 200 young people. I led small groups and taught the Gospel to some young people who did not have the assurance of Salvation, and Christian life to those who already have the assurance of salvation. By God’s grace, more than 50 of the campers accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord during the camp.

Child Evangelism Mission (CEM):

Some faculty, alumni and students of South East Asia Bible College (CEM Team) and I conducted Children Summer Children Camps at Kan Oo village from April 28-30, 2016.

Prayer Requests:

Please pray for:

1) The salvation of those people who have heard the Gospel

2) The spiritual growth of those new converts

3) The Lord’s clear guidance for new mission fields.

Thank you very much for your continued prayers.
