Firstly, I would like to introduce about myself. I am Pastor John Hniar LingThang living in Yangon. I am doing mission ministry along with 18 ministers in Myanmar. Secondly, I would like to introduce briefly about our ministry. We started "Grace Mission Ministry For Myanmar" from Yangon division in 2004. It spread to Pago division and Sagai division. So , now we have three mission fields in Myanmar. We are doing mission ministry among Burmese people who strongly put their faith in Buddhism. Since they are very strong in their faith, it is too difficult to tell the Gospel to them. But the Spirit of God is with us and He uses us to win many souls. we also believe that God Himself will surely spread His Gospel and plant new churches throughout the whole country of Myanmar through our mission ministry. Finally, we will be very greatful to have a fellowship with you in the ministry. We also would like to request you to accept us into your ministry net-network . It will be a great honor for us to work together with you in the ministry. Moreover, we would like to request your prayer support for our ministry and teaching support to our ministers.

I have two of his books. . . emerging church, and emerging worship. I think he has a lot to say about the EC movement. I don't necessarily agree with everything, but I like assessment. I think the 20's and 30's are the key to the future church in America, and if we leave them behind, then the church is basically done with here in the US. I am not even talking about FG issues. . . just basic issues! - Don I just noticed you are reading Dan Kimball, “They Like Jesus. . .”

I think the 20’s and 30’s are the key to the future church in America, and if we leave them behind, then the church is basically done with here in the US. I am not even talking about FG issues. . . just basic issues!

There are people all across the country who are crying out for a free grace church plant in their area. I have talked several times with some of the "powers that be" about this, but they have no desire whatsoever to get into church planting. I think the FGA initially was planning on doing some of this, but they have now become embroiled in this "crossless gospel" debate and it has slowed them to a crawl. So... keep checking back! Don,

I would love to help start a FG church in my area. I live around 10 miles SW of Philadelphia in Aston, PA. My wife & I have been trying to convert some folks in the various churches in the area to the FG view, but it is taking a a very long time. It would be nice to have one or 2 FG folks who are already FG to network with, and just start a small church. If anyone else reading this is interested in helping start a FG church here, please contact me! FYI There are probably about 1/2 Million people within 25 miles of me (500,000 in Delaware County, 1.5 Million in Philadelphia, and 500,000 in Chester County). . . . not a single solid FG church that I can find. Mike Otto has a FG church 25 miles North of Philadelphia, but that is pretty far away. All the churches around here that used to be FG 30-40 years ago are now reformed/lordship in one way or another. I have been trying to get a FG church started for 15 years. This is SG/Reformed/Lordship territory, and it is getting worse every year. If you know of, or you are a FG pastor/church leader around here that I have not been able to find, please contact me! - Don Reiher dreiher2 at compsupport dot net I suggest GES and FGA branch out and include church planting as part of their mission statement.
