The country of Myanmar (formerly Burma) is now suffering in a civil war, but God is still at work there and we’ve trained several Burmese teachers. Leo came to our training in Tulsa, OK in 2019 to learn to teach literacy and ESL to children at the orphanage he and his wife founded. Other 2019 ILTI cohort friends recently came together to help him raise funds to build a new facility for the 29 children after they were evicted.
Another teacher from Myanmar just shared: “It is my great joy to write how the Lord has led our mission. I completed the LEI online training in 2020. It impacts and burns on my heart to train young people, and I started teaching Light of the World on Jan 7, 2021. It reaches out with the Gospel to our people.” He now has three ESL classes teaching students from 7-24 years old.
