Christmas Celebration in Myanmar!

Dear Friends,

The AWM Christmas Party
Spread the Gospel,
Fed the Hungry, and
Warmed with Blankets...
and the People Danced in Praise!

Steven & Julie reported that more than 200 people attended the December 22nd Christmas Celebration at the Ancient Words Training Center!  The crowd included believers in Christ and Buddhists, many of whom came to watch their elementary-age children perform in the Christmas program.

S&J told us:
"Our TC students performed Christmas songs with dances that really got the attention of their parents. Also women from the TC Church praise God and dance with their national costumes ."

‍
We were able to provide a special lunch for the attendees.  Meat is a rare treat in the IDP camp, so it was really appreciated.  The believers of the Training Center Church served the guests. We also purchased 150 blankets to help the people weather the cold nights - S&J also made sure that each blanket had a gospel tract tucked inside...

Steven’s message was just as we had hoped. He told us:
"Our motto is "Our Savior has born" Luke 2:11. And My sermon was the reason why Jesus had to come down to the Earth. Jesus had died for our atonement. It seems like they interact very well. A few families asked me if they would like to join the TC Church Service because they wanted to know more about Christ. We told them that everyone that is interested to know more about Jesus is warmly welcome from the TC."  

Steven's message to YOU is:
"It was truly a Special Christmas Celebration for our community. They enjoyed it very much and were so thankful for the special treat and gifts. We were able to celebrate this wonderful event just because of the kind heart and generosity of the beautiful family in the State... May the Joy the peace and the happiness of our Lord Jesus be with you all!
With Much love,
Steven & Julie"

I will also add my thanks for making this special event happen.  It was because of you that the gospel of Christ reached these people, along with food and essentials for the least of these.  So, THANK YOU so much in the name of Jesus the Messiah!

Love in Him,

Don
