Letters from Shan Radio Broadcast listeners
176 letters received from the listeners of Shan Gospel Radio within these first six months. It is hundred
percent up from last year statistic. About 95 per cent of the letters are from non-Christians and 90
percent are from Buddhist Monks. Most of the people ask for Bible, want to know more about Jesus,
want to know how to become His disciple and some express their faith in Jesus.
A Buddhist monk writes “I believe in Jesus Christ. When will you come and call us out from here?
Please come as soon as possible. I and all my villagers here will follow.”
Another Buddhist monk writes “I want to be His disciple. Please tell me how can I become His disciple.
Where should I go?”
A drifted young Christian writes “Thank you very much for leading me back to the Lord. I have been
drifted away from the Church for many years. After listening to your message in the Radio for two
years I am now a new man. I have confessed my sins to the Lord and become a living witness to the
Lord.” (This man is now serving in a village as full-time pastor)
Prayer Request
- God’s guidance to know how to plan follow-up program for Radio listeners.
- Shan Bible available for those who want to read the Holy Word.
- Physical and Spiritual blessing to our Footsoldiers.

Letter from Rev. Sai Stephen, KengTung, to Dr. Sai Htwe Maung, Hong Kong. 2 October 1996
Dear co-worker Dr. Sai Htwe Maung,
Greeting in the name of Christ. I have received your letter dated 25 August and 16 September
but not 6 August.
I will write 21st CSMP report to you as soon as possible. Next year please increase our evangelist
support to K 1,500 per month and traveling allowance to K 50,000 because I have to travel a lot. We
also plan to have refresher course for our evangelists next year. The coming of Malaysia team from
October 30 to November 4 is OK. I have made all the planning for them. Don’t worry. I’ll send them
where they want to go, show them what they want to see. I will give them best hospitality.
May the Lord bless you and your family.
In His Service, Signed/ Sai Stephen
