November Update

Moving forward and upward together, to co-create sustainable change

Dear Subscriber First Name,

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this month’s update.

After the success of our Christmas Campaign last year we are once again asking you to consider making space at your Christmas Dinner table. Last year there were 55 extra places made around Aussie tables which meant that friends in Myanmar were supported, prayed for, and encouraged in the various challenges they face in their life. Please visit https://www.sustainmyanmar.org/christmas-2024 to select who you would like to make a place for.

OUR PROJECTS

Saw Moo Klee Taw was one of 10 students selected for the very first intake of Earth Mission Physician Associates in 2016. After finishing the 5 year program at the end of 2020 he returned to his home district in Northern Karen State, along with 2 other graduates from the same area to start a Secondary Care Clinic. He recently visited EM headquarters in Chiang Mai and shared with the team the story of their clinic: how it started and how it has blossomed in the past 3 and a half years. Read about the amazing results in the latest newsletter from Earth Mission here.

Testimony from a parent at the CCM school.

I am the mother of four children (three boys and one girl.) My youngest daughter was born unable to hear or speak, she is now 11-years-old. I am deeply grateful to CCM team for allowing her to attend school despite her challenges. Since joining the school, she has learned to recognize the time, calendar, and days of the week. Her memory has improved, she has become more discipline, and she loves to learn. Our family cannot express how thankful we are. She eagerly completes her homework, follows the school schedule, and can now write. I feel that she understands what she is learning. Without CCM’s support, she would not have had the chance to develop these essential skills. She truly enjoys being at school. And we are forever grateful.

OTHER NEWS

International Day of Prayer will be held on Monday 25th November starting at 10am AEST and go for several hours. Here is a link to sign up if you would like to join, even for an hour or so.

Our 20th birthday is coming up in April 2025! Wow! We have seen many changes and challenges over the years, including rebranding, but we are still committed to the same vision and purpose of what our founders started 20 years ago. To commemorate the occasion we have invited Dr Mitch and Carol Ryan from Earth Mission to come and join with us. We plan on holding special events in Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, and Lismore which is where it all began. If you are interested in having Dr Mitch share at your church, school, Rotary Club etc about the incredible work of Earth Mission, please let me know.
