Judson Church






Our last Sunday in Yangon, the day of our departure, we worshipped at the Judson Church on the grounds of Yangon University [formerly Judson University]. Hope to visit here again next year and the following year during the Celebration.

Emmanuel Baptist Church

We visited the Emmanuel Baptist Church in the center of Yangon. There was no service going on at the time but they let us in to take some pictures. This is where most Baptists in Yangon go to service.






SIBS Outing

Our first Sunday in Yangon we attended the Opening Ceremony of the Fifth Session of the School for Inductive Bible Study in the Nawaday Garden Estates.

The next Sunday we went on an outing with the students to Bago, Saw Daniel's hometown. There we worshipped at his local church, Aung Mwe Tha Kayin Baptist Church, where his Sister, Lydia, is the Pastor.
