THE REASON FOR HAVING BURDEN
I was born and brought up in a Christian family home. Yet I was not born again. But I got saved in 1986. After
conversion, I received the call of God in 1992 while I was in Seminary, India. Since then I had a great burden
for my people back in Myanmar who never had a chance of hearing the gospel fo salvation. In 1997 after
completion of M.Div. I then went back to my country and stepped out by faith into the ministry in the same
year in 1997 6 th May. That’s the reason
we named this ministry as “Faith Missionary Baptist Missions”. I
was working in delta area as missionary. As God bless the ministry, the church was started at a very small
village. Having burden, I traveled almost all over Magui division, Sagain division and Ayeyarwaddy division.
After traveling, I realized the fact that there is a great need for making disciples (multiplying ourselves).
Whenever I see the people, my heart moves. They are hopeless people. They are in need of someone to tell
them about the gospel of Christ. But I had seen committed people working in the field without any support.
I prayed and envisioned that I might be able to support them financially. After much prayer, God finally led
me
to work with H.E.L.P. Ministries in 2001. I thank the Lord for that.
CHURCH PLANTING
After having partnership with H.E.L.P. Ministries, the Lord really blesses our ministries in various ways. We
are able to support 10 missionaries. At least 5 Baptist Churches sprang up as the result of commitment to
the ministry of the Lord.

2. Revival Baptist Church, Pathein: The Pastor is Thae
3. Grace Baptist Church, Chauk: The Pastor is Tialtu

7. In the process of starting in Sali, Missionary Thein Shwe is working over there.
8. In the process of starting in Yangon, Missionary Timothy Cung Lian Mang is working.
9. In the process of starting among Chinpung, Missionary Kukulh is working over there.
10. In the process of starting at Sihkung, Bro.Paul Hre would be responsible.
We have big vision to start more Churches in many other places.
These are the Church members in Pathein.
These are our Bible Students in rented house. BIBLE SCHOOL MINISTRY
My eldest Bro. Timothy Sui Lian Mang
founded Biblical School of Theology in 1996.
As our people do not have good Bible, after
having great burden, he fully committed to Bible
translation KJV-TR into Falam Chin He has
handed over the ministry of Bible School to
my elder Bro. Bawi Cin Thang and me.We
have over 80 students. Most of them are very
poor. The Lord had given us bigger responsibility. Most of our graduated students are in the ministry in
different parts of Myanmar. This is an English medium school. We see good product in this school. We
pray that in the near future the Lord would raise more young people from our Bible school for the ministry
of the Lord.
FAITH MISSIONARY TRAINING
This training is designed for committed people who could not follow English. We are teaching in Burmese. We
started this ministry in the year 2002. The Lord is really blessing this training. We are able to train at least
10
missionaries. Our desire and prayer is that, as we train, we must be able to support them financially. These
trained missionaries are in fulltime ministry.
HOPE CHILDREN'S HOME
LITERATURE MINISTRY
In 2000, we started Literature (Magazine) ministry in Falam-Chin called “ Theihnak” which we publish
bi-monthly about 12 thousand copies. We have many readers from within and abroad. In fact, people got
saved through the reading of our magazine. We could not continue this ministry since the month of October
2003 due to lack of fund. Many people request us so much. We pray that we may be able to continue in the
near future.
By faith, we started this new ministry in this year
2003, June 27. My wife has a heavy burden for
orphan children. We are having 115 children right
now. We are so excited to see life changing.
Almost all of them are saved after coming to “Hope
Children’s Home”. We consider this one as
missionary training. We pray that they may receive
the call of God and involve in the ministry of the
Lord. We have a great hope for them. We really
thank God for H.E.L.P. Ministries and
Dr.Cham MacMillen for suppoting these
children financially. We are praying that the
Lord may provide the need of house building
for them. Please pray with for this new project.
The Lord burdened me long ago to have literature
ministry especially in the area of Bible distribution to the
new converts. And again except Bible, biblical books are
not available in Burmese language for new converts to read.
There are many false Christians, e.g.like Jehovah
witness are so advanced in literature ministry. After much
thought and prayer, together we finally started literature
ministry called "Biblical Literture Ministry". The main
purpose is to distribute Bibles and publish some biblical
books in Burmese. We hope that H.E.L.P. Ministries would
get involve more in this ministry. In fact, we are waiting
for the coming of Bro.Tilley. There are many new converts who do not Bibles in their hands. When I see
them not having anythings it breaks my hearts. I believe just preaching is not enough. Writing and
distributing is also basically required in God's ministry. Pray that people will get saved through this new
ministry.
BIBLE MINISTRY
HOPE NURSERY SCHOOL
The Lord gave a burden to my wife Junia to start
pre-school. By faith, we just started on June 3, 04.
The main focus is to reach our neighborhood with
the gospel of Jesus Christ. We have 10 children. 3
from Muslim and 7 from Buddhist family. My wife
and three dedicated teachers teach them lessons
every day and tell them about about Jesus Christ.
This is a golden opportunity for us to reach them
with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The place we are
doing is near our residence. Our house rent will
end up in September, 04. We need to continue
to rent the house for one full year. The house
rent cost $100 monthly. We are praying that
the Lord may provide us on His time. Please
do pray with us for this need and saving of
children's souls.
May God's blessings be upon those who read our ministries and pray for us.
Yours in His Vineyard,
