New High School Grad Says "Thank You!"
​
​My name is Ah Myint.* I am 18 years old and just graduated from
high school. I grew up in a family with nine children. My parents
had to work very hard to support our large family with ordinary
jobs and very little income. Because of this, they could not
afford to send us to school. The future of the children in our
family seemed very uncertain.
​
We began to pray that God would show mercy and open a way for our family. We believed that if at least one child in our family could receive a good education, it might help change the future of our family. I had had some elementary school, but we could not afford high school.
​
A bit later, some friends of my parents and elders in the community shared about our family with the coordinator of Asia Frontier Outreach’s Family-Based Child Care program, Pastor Ah Ti. He came to visit our family and helped me apply for the Family-Based Child Care program. Our whole family became excited with hope for me.
​
It wasn’t long after that we received the joyful news that I was accepted into the Family-Based Child Care program and I began high school. This has been a great blessing for my life and for my family.
​
I would like to sincerely thank all the donors for supporting me. Your kindness, love, and generosity have given me the opportunity to finish high school and now be able to find a good job. I can now help support my family and also give back to society by helping others who are facing difficulties like I once did. May God bless you always.
​
Respectfully and with sincere gratitude,
Ms. Ah Myint
Meet a New Christ-follower:
"Jesus, the One who never turns away"
My name is Su Ling*, and I come from a quiet mountain village
deep in southeast Asia. I lost my husband a long time ago, and
after he passed away, everything changed. People in my
village began to avoid me. They said I was cursed. I felt invisible,
unwanted, and each day I asked myself, “Why am I still here?”
My sadness felt like a heavy weight I couldn’t remove.
​
But one day, everything changed.
​
A small group of Christians came to our village. They looked at me with kindness, not fear or pity. They brought food and supplies, but more than that, they brought something I had almost lost: hope. They didn’t avoid me. They saw me. They told me about Jesus, the One who never turns away the brokenhearted, but instead welcomes, loves, and calls them by name.
​
One night, I was alone in my small house, and I whispered a simple prayer: “Jesus, if you are real, please comfort me.” That night, for the first time in many years, I slept peacefully.
Soon after, I gave my life to Jesus. Today, I call Jesus my true comforter. He didn’t just heal my heart; He gave me a new life.
