Our Myanmar STM trip has come to a close on a high note, filled with tears, hugs, well wishes, “I love you” and “come back again” during the final farewell party on Thursday 6/19.

We have obediently followed the goals set at the beginning: to obey Jesus’ Great Commission and to raise up the next generation of missionaries under the theme of “Hope.” Everywhere we went, God used us as His instruments to touch lives with love and compassion. In return, our own souls were deeply moved by the gentleness of the children, staff, and mothers. The three young men and women on our team stepped up to lead various workshops while building relationships with the children and their families.

Looking back, everyone is filled with gratitude—not only for the 10 days in Myanmar but also for the many weeks spent preparing together spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. We faced ups and downs, and there were many challenges along the way. Yet God remained faithful, walking with us and giving us courage, faith, love, and hope. Jesus triumphed over our fears—earthquakes, visa suspensions, delays, sickness, and more.

At the end of this trip, I want to shout my thanks to the Lord, for we saw His glory in every place we visited. Not only did we remain obedient to His calling in unity, but we also experienced His presence in powerful ways through these activities:

May each team member continue to be encouraged to share their testimony when they return to their cities and churches. May God’s name be glorified!

我們的緬甸短宣之旅在歡笑與淚水中圓滿落幕，於6月19日星期四的惜別會上，充滿了擁抱、祝福、「我愛你」與「你們一定要再來」的話語。

我們忠心地完成了出發前所立下的目標：遵行耶穌的大使命，並以「盼望」為主題，培育下一代的宣教士。在我們所到之處，神使用我們成為祂愛與憐憫的器皿去觸摸人心；同時，我們的心也被孩子們、工作人員與母親們的溫柔所深深感動。我們團隊中的三位年輕人積極投入，在各項工作坊中擔任領導，並與孩童及其家人建立關係。

回首過去，不僅是為這十天的緬甸行程感恩，也為之前那段在靈性、心理、情感與身體上的預備時間心存感激。我們經歷了高低起伏，面對過不少挑戰，但神一直信實地同行，賜下勇氣、信心、愛與盼望。耶穌戰勝了我們的恐懼——地震、簽證被延、延誤、生病等種種困難。

此刻，站在旅程的終點，我想高聲感謝主，因為我們在每一站都看見祂的榮耀。我們不僅同心合意地遵行祂的呼召，也在活動中真實地經歷祂的同在：

仰光伊甸中心（Eden Center）：透過遊戲與信息鼓勵家長與員工，並探訪腦性麻痺孩童家庭，為他們禱告。
PYCC 青年中心：一起敬拜，分享KFC炸雞和可樂。
雲彩家園（Silver Lining Family Village，彬烏倫）：

願每一位團隊成員回到各自城市與教會後，繼續勇敢見證主的作為，使神的名得著榮耀！
