“For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.” Mat. 25:29.  Note the context and you will see what this means. Those who use what they have will get more, and those who let what they have lie idle, will lose even that.  The working Christian, the one who uses his talents, whether few or many, in Christ’s service, is the one gets on in his Christian life here, and who will hereafter hear the Words. “ Well done, thou good and faithful servant…enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Mat. 25:21. R.A. Torrey said, “Find some work to do for Christ and do it. Seek for work. If it is nothing more than distributing Gospel tracts, do it.  Always be looking for something more to do for Christ, and you will always be receiving something more from Christ.”  I believe that our day for evangelizing will soon be over. There may not be much time left. The important question is, will our work have been done? Are there going to be people in heaven who will be able to point to us and say, “I am here because of your life and testimony” or, “I am here because you gave me the Word of God” or, I am here because of your money?” When we have the opportunity to witness or to get involved in mission work for Christ to some soul and we fail, then that opportunity is past. We must be filled with the Holy Spirit.  Our hearts must be filled with the love of god. If we would do something for the Lord, we must do it now.  For every one of you who helped us last month, I say a sincere thank you.

May I share with you what happen during the month of June and let me mention some prayer requests.

I. OUR BIBLE COLLEGE MINISTRY:
We reopened our Bible College on June 2, 2010.
For this academic year, we have 142 students:  First year – 42 students, Second year -39 students, Third year – 32 student, Fourth year – 24 students, Master – 5 students. We have 13 full time teachers, 3 adjunct teachers, and 7 general workers. Those students are from 18 different ethnic groups. We had a salvation crusade for the sake of new students June 15 -17. We divided students into three groups and three evangelists taught them Salvation Doctrine for three full days. All students said that they have assurance of Salvation. We thank God for that. Presently we have no funds for the College ministry this year, there are many needs right now. It will be great if you can help us for the College ministry.

Needs:
1. We have no electricity power (24 Hrs), but the Lord has provided us a big generator. But we have to buy a diesel to generate it. Diesel costs $ 3.50 for one gallon and two Gallons can generate the generator for four hours. We do need two gallons a day, that means $ 7.00. Without light, students can not study. This is a big problem for us. That means we need $210.00 per month for diesel.
2. Some funds are needed for building maintenance, stationary, transport, tools, office supplies..etc.
3. We also need one computer for office and at least one computer for students’ use. $ 700.00 can buy one computer.
4. We have very poor students who are in badly in need of scholarship. We need scholarship funds.

II. CHURCH PLANTING MOVEMENT/ MISSIONARY MOVEMENT:
Missionary James Hrin Thawng: Our missionaries are working in different states and places. One of our heart touching mission fields is East Shan State which is border of China and Laos. There 238 Akha tribe villages who worship spirits. Five of our missionaries have been working there. There are Christians at 13 villages through those missionaries.
One of those missionaries namely James Thawng visited us early June, and his report is very interesting. The people do not read and write. Therefore, the only way of witnessing to them is by oral only. Missionaries are now teaching how to read and write in their language. For this project we do need a house for Boarding School. Missionary Haggai: We thank God that Haggai baptized 25 people this month. The people who took water baptism are from animists, Buddhists.

Five Days Missionary Refreshment Seminar:
Missionaries are isolated, lonely, and so Seminar is very effective for them. That’s why every year we use to conduct a five day Seminar for them. Last week of June, we conducted a seminar and 47 missionaries came. They eat together, they stay together, they share their burden each other. It was a real refreshment.

III. MANDALAY PRISON MINISTRY:
On June 27 (Sunday) missionary David Ma Mang baptized 22 prisoners in Mandalay prison (Jail). We gave the  prisoners… caps, sandals, trowels, tooth paste and brushes and Bibles. Hallelujah.  This is a great ministry.

Thanks for your financial support, because of your support these things could happen.

Yours in His service,
Timothy Sui Lian Mang
Servant of the Lord
