Church Family Growing – New Church in Myanmar!

by | Feb 14, 2017

Tahan Zone, Myanmar:  A great celebration was held on Sunday, February 12th, as another church was organized in Myanmar.  The Gosen Church of the Nazarene, is located 9 miles outside of Kalaymyo in a location considered to be the gateway to Chin state and India.

Rev. Ro Ding Liana, the Tahan Zone Coordinator, officiated the ceremony for the Burmese-speaking church of ten adults and children.  The church is a house church, located in the residence of a Burmese widow, and is being led by pastor Pi. Lalkhumi.  Pastor Lalkhumi is currently enrolled in the course of study leading to ordination, as administered by Southeast Asia Nazarene Bible College (SEANBC).

“We discussed about more church planting programs and making disciples more and more,” shared Rev. Liana. “Today we sensed the power of the Holy Spirit touching every one of us as we sang and prayed together.”

“We are hoping to reach our neighbors who have not yet received the good news of Jesus,” said Pastor Lalkhumi.

Rev. Ro Ding Liana

Please commit to pray for the ongoing work in Myanmar; for the protection of the church leaders; and for the continued movement of the Holy Spirit!  God is truly at work in this southeast Asia nation!
