2. The price of the book will be Kyat 250. Please deduct all the expense for transportation and the
balance should be kept for 21 st century Shan mission project only. Please do not use the money for any
other things.
3. I would like Sai Stephen, Sai La La and Dr. Sai Myo Min from the Eastern Shan State to manage the
books, sale and money received from Eastern Shan State.
4. For Northern Shan State and ShweLi, I would like Lung Kyaw Hla, Nang Hla Kyi and Sai Thein
Aung Kham to oversee the book, sale and money received from sale.
5. When you are going to use the money please kindly get advice from me.
6. I have heard that some Shan people have believed the Lord in the Eastern Shan State. I am very glad.
May the Lord add more blessing to Sai Stephen and other evangelists. I am glad that Sai Stephen has
conducted training for evangelists and sent them out to villages after graduation. We need to send more
evangelists out to the field. If no body was sent out after training, our training will be a waste of time,
money and energy. We have to work. If we don’t work the work will never be done. We have to do as
we say.
7. I am praying that I will be able to come and join you in ShweLi Shan Mission Centenary Celebration
and 75 th anniversary of MuSe Shan Church.
8. I met and talked with Rev. Win Tin and Prof: William Paw about our wish of forming Shan Baptist
Convention. They agreed with me and asked you to write a letter to Myanmar Baptist Convention
again. They said it was possible. I really want to see “Shan Baptist Convention” formed during
Centenary Celebration.
9. I am planning to have “Dai Mao” (Chinese-Shan) program in Far East Broadcasting Company
starting from September this year. I have written to you and asked you to help and participate in this
program. However I have not received reply from you. Please let me know as soon as possible whether
you will be able to help and participate in preaching Dai Mao.
May the Lord bless you richly,

Note: (ShweLi Shan Baptist Mission has not contributed any Dai Mao program till today.)
Letter from Rev. Sai Stephen, Associate Director, 21st Century Shan Mission Project, to Dr. Sai Htwe
Maung, Director, 21st Century Shan Mission Project. 24 March 1993
Dr. Sai Htwe Maung,
Greeting in the name of Christ.
I have received your letter and letter of invitation to attend Asian Outreach Conference in Hong
Kong. Thank you for working out for me. I will try to come to attend AO conference. I am going to
Rangoon to apply for passport. I hope God will arrange for me. All the New Shan Hymnbooks have
arrived KengTung. All the Churches starting with dedication and using it now. I have sent some to
TaungGyi for the South and North. I have heard they have all arrived.
Our training will end on March 28. We have 20 people dedicated for mission. We are very much
encouraged. We will select 7 people and send them to seven villages to plant new Churches. We will
support them with K 800 per month. Our mission work has started to bear fruits. On March 21, 1993,
Rev. Seng Tip and I have baptized 47 new believers. They all came from spirit worship.
Please remember us in your prayer.
In Christ, Signed/ Sai Stephen
