Earlier this month we held a strategic planning meeting with Pastor Raymond Yap & Pastor Samuel Tuja from Life Harvest Church, one of our key fellowships in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Our main discussions concerned the launching of a new School of Ministry for Myanmar refugees living in Malaysia.  (Pastor Raymond's church has over 300 Myanmar refugees; Pastor Samuel is the main Pastor to this group.) Our plans are to launch this SOM in March 2011.  The school will be open to all Myanmar refugees in KL.  Pastor Samuel is a graduate of our KL SOM and he will serve as the Myanmar SOM principal.  We believe this is a strategic ministry that will equip and train Myanmar refugees and prepare them to minister in the countries they will be resettled to in the future, mainly the USA!!  Please pray for Pastor Raymond and Pastor Samuel as they lead this ministry.  Thank you.
