Goh and all ASM team is for equipping me further while I was still in the ministry because I didn't have to leave the ministry to be trained. Thank you!<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Secondly, since I am in training Christian youth leaders, all the subjects of M. Min. have been great resources for to train youth leaders. The simple explanations, so practical, touching illustrations and yet Asian modelled ministry principles that I have learned in M. Min. Classes have been useful in my training youth leaders in Nepal and the very first time recently I had a chance to train youth leaders in BANGLADESH. \u00a0The M. Min. program has not only taught me how to do the ministry but has always reminded me why I do what I do.\u00a0 \u00a0In other words it has not only skilled my ministry skills but skilled my soul to find God in daily basis.<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Only in less than 2 years, we have trained over 800 youth leaders in Nepal and I know and let you know that you have been hugely a part of this God's move by training, equipping and encouraging me further to do what I am doing with the LORD.<\/b><\/div>\n<div><b>Thank you so much for all who are sowing\/ investing in this ministry (ASM). \u00a0I would like to tell you that this is only one (my story) among many.
