Burma (Myanmar)
Today we welcome Rev. Myint Maung as he visits us again. During our worship together, he will share an update on his evangelistic ministry to his homeland of Burma (Myanmar). Brother Myint spends several months each year traveling, preaching, and discipling believers in the central and southern provinces of Myanmar. He also brings the hope and love of Christ to Burmese people living along the Thai border in refugee camps.
Please continue to pray for this hope-giving ministry. If you would like to give financially to support the ministry, mark your envelope “Burma” and place it in the collection plate during the offering. Brother Myint is also seeking the assistance of a coworker who can travel with him to Myanmar and assist with the administrative work of this ministry.
Pray that the Lord will call and raise up a person to serve in this way. Perhaps you will be that person! God bless you for your ongoing interest and support.
Father’s Day Barbecue is today after the worship service. Stay with us after the service for this time of excellent food and great fellowship.
