So I would honestly say that through this Master of Ministry Program (MMP), I am blessed. \u00a0The MMP helped me to die myself (my carnal nature) daily. I have felt God is as my \"PATER\" Father, \"JEHOVAH\", \"EL-SHADDAI\" and \"ELOHIM\" more than before. The MMP taught and encouraged me to love Him more than anything and to trust Him alone in all situations. This program helped me to renew my spiritual life so I really am blessed.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>2.\u00a0<\/b><b><i>Academically Blessed<\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This program helped to learn about the prophetic books, Leadership quality from the epistles and correct interpretation as well as some of the characteristics and attributes of God and creation. Therefore, through this program I am equipped and blessed academically.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>3.\u00a0<\/b><b><i>Practically Blessed<\/i><\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Through this program I have learned on some of the areas like strategic and effective evangelism, meaningful discipleship, servant-hood (role model) leadership. Some statements are stuck in my mind and heart: \"main thing is main thing\" and \"attitude determiners the altitude\".\u00a0 Since, the program will be absolutely helpful in my future ministry practically and shape my practical life, therefore, I confess that I am blessed practically too.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Three Future Plans<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0First, to keep my spiritual life in balance I have made my daily plan and family plan and dying daily.\u00a0 I will spend time in prayer, reading His word and spending time as I have learned. And I will be trying my best to live continuously accordingly.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I will share my vision,\u00a0<b>Mission Objectives<\/b>\u00a0with my people, then make daily plan, and short term plan and long term for Effective Evangelism, genuine discipleship, equipping \/ building leaders and formation of Healthy and missionary church so the body of Christ would be rooted on Jesus Christ (Matthews 16:18). It would be equipped spiritually, academically and practically so the equipped and healthy and spotless church will fulfil God's great commission (Matthews 28:19, 20).<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Finally, I will select and equip some of called, committed and faithful co-workers and deliver responsibilities to assign the task to them. We will work with full conviction and commitment with same goal and same purpose that would establish God's Kingdom in the world and exalt His name alone. Moreover, I would request for you to pray and cooperate with me.

If you can attend to witness this great occasion, please let us know.<\/div>\n<div>Our point-man, Rev.

This is bearing fruit in our brother\u2019s life and in other lives too as God transforms lives and builds knowledge, wisdom and skills. The target date will be January, 2012. Please pray for this new vision. If you help to kick-start this program, please pray and do what God wills.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>MYANMAR<\/div>\n<div>Special Conferences:\u00a0 Training for pastors and leaders will be held in Mandalay and Maymyo,\u00a023 Nov. to Dec. 2<sup>nd<\/sup>.
