5. Student Hostel
This is a new project, which we are going to implement in 1998. I had discussed this project
with pastor Ong and Jean in KengTung already. I hope pastor Ong had already told you all
about the project. I also believe the AOI will help this project also. There will be 50 students in
the hostel. The school term is June 1998 to March 1999. I need to hear something from you.
6. Scholarship to Bible school Students
In 1998, there will be 6 young men and women who will attend the Bible College in B.Th.
degree level. The school term is from June 1998 March 1999. The expense will be round about
US$ 300.00 per year for each of them. I want to request the AOI to help us US $ 200.00 per
year for every one of them.
7. The report sheets
Now I send you 4 sheets of conversion report and 2 sheets of training report. I will send you
continually.
8. Communication
Make contact with me by sending letter to my KengTung’s address. But please don’t tell about
the finance for the security reason but only about the mission work.
I will be in Maesai, Thailand in first week of March. I will contact with you by fax.
9. Financial support (first quarter)
I had already received US$ 300.00 from pastor Ong and 10,000 Kyat from Jean in KengTung.
This will cover me one and half months for the Evangelists’ salaries. I want you to send me the
2nd quarter support to my bank account in Maesai, Thailand in March when you receive my fax.
