Steve & Shelly Larson, Myanmar

» Go back to Foreign/Overseas

Steve and Shelly Larson are involved in equipping the churches in the Myanmar region through training of pastors and ministers and supporting their efforts.

In Bhamo, they are also involved in supporting an orphanage where nearly 90 orphans live. The local churches are not able to fully meet the needs there. The efforts are to first get the orphans into a family who can adopt them as part of their own household.
This sometimes requires financial assistance to the family as many are already in poverty themselves. The second initiative is to help fund churches to care for more orphans in their orphanages and hostels on the various church compounds.

The Larsons are helping with a training ministry among the Asho Chin. They re-engaged with this Baptist conference of churches to continue the training process with over 25 pastors. The training will take place two times each year for one week, focusing on three short studies that increase understanding of the Word, and the wise and disciplined application of the Word in life and ministry.

Their plans include assisting local churches on the China/Myanmar border with the development of present and future leaders for the churches.
