From Darkness to New Life

IDENTITIES CONCEALED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES

"Our Lord and God, you are worthy to receive glory and honor and power, because you have created all things, and by your will they exist and were created." -Revelation 4:11

Dear Ministry Partners,

We sincerely acknowledge the goodness and faithfulness of God toward the families and ministry of CCI Myanmar throughout 2025. He has carried us into 2026 with the glory of His presence.

Even in the darkest times, we have witnessed that He is still at work. Mighty works continue to unfold through His humble servants. New believers have been added to the kingdom of heaven, and heaven rejoices.

The holidays between Christmas and New Year were remarkable days for Christians across many regions. Our team spent time in their villages and churches under the leadership of local pastors and church leaders, enjoying fellowship through games, church activities, and shared meals.

In the northwest, Pastor T led evangelistic training for young people. During that gathering, 16 young people recognized their need for Jesus Christ and publicly expressed their commitment to Him through water baptism.

Pastor B and his coworkers have been faithfully sharing the good news in different villages for weeks. Many people are becoming familiar with the message of Jesus Christ. Refugees in the area have also joined worship services and Bible studies.

Pastor B led a two-day salvation story training, and four young people committed their lives to Christ. On the final day of training, they publicly declared their faith through water baptism. Praise the Lord.

Like these two leaders, many teachers and students faithfully shared the gospel, and many people believed in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Please pray with us that the Lord will continue to add many new believers this year. Thank you for your faithful prayers and generous financial support.

Blessings,

CCI Myanmar National Director

Classes

Pastor B visited classes and churches. He also resumes teaching his class every Saturday and Sunday evening.
Pastor S visited three classes, and they are doing well.
I visited two classes and helped start a new class with a pastor.

Staff Update

Pastor T: He and his family are in good health. God blessed their farm work with a great harvest, supporting the family and ministry as well. He is working so hard, with some potential men of God, to help churches transform.

Pastor M: He and his family are in good health in their new remote city. He was appointed as the pastor and takes every opportunity to share the good news alongside church leaders in several refugee camps. He continues learning while training an elderly group at his church.

Pastor Y: He and his family are doing well in a safe city on the border of China. He continues the pastoral ministry and is active in evangelism around the city. Along with local leaders, he leads the community safety and concerns team.

Pastor Z: He and his family are in good health in a secure town. He is joining the church's leadership program and adding some CCI courses. His wife is teaching in the children's ministry. His son just finished high school and got a job to help the family. His two daughters are still in school.

Pastor S: He has been on a trip to the northwest since the last week of January to promote the ministry among different churches and to hold pastoral seminars alongside Pastor T. His wife is doing well at home, and his three children are doing well in their own studies and work in Thailand.

Pastor B: He has a great passion for seeing churches grow, so he often visits churches on the motorbike CCI provided. His wife and one of his children have been physically weak for over a week. Pray with them that God will restore good health quickly so that children can take their final state examination.

Testimony

"We just finished Book #1. This book really touched my heart. Though I graduated from school, I did not learn this subject and did not really know how to study the Bible. By following the guidelines in this book, I can now handle the Bible correctly, and my preaching has become more powerful and meaningful to the audience. The congregation loves to join the worship service as they understand the Word of God. I believe the CCI materials are effective and worth using for pastors."

Prayer Requests & Praises

Pastor S left for the northwest region the last week of January for two reasons. 1) to encourage the family and relatives of his elder brother, who went to the Lord in December 2025. 2) to encourage Pastor T and to promote the ministry and lead seminars together with Pastor T. Pray that God will protect and provide churches and pastors who are well-connected.
I held a Teacher Training Workshop (TTW) in Yangon during the second week of February, with seven pastors and ministers. Pray for God's wisdom and protection.
Pray that God will protect and use the staff, teachers, students, and graduates mightily as they continue their calling in their respective mission fields.
Pray for wisdom, good health, and safety for our children (in cities) as they take the nationwide state examination in February. Most children in refugee camps and in remote villages will probably take the exams on their own for safety reasons.
We plan to hold a one-day annual staff meeting and a two-day teacher conference in March. Pray with us that God will open safe ways for staff and teachers.
My daughter has been doing well in Thailand so far. Praise the Lord for her improvement, and thanks to all for your prayers and financial support. We thank the Lord for the Filipino missionary family who takes responsibility for our daughter's guardianship. However, they will no longer be the guardian in the next academic year. Since the school is family-based, we will need someone to be with her. Pray for God's intervention in our challenges.
