My family and I are a small ethnic group from Chin State, Myanmar (Burma). Due to the first missionaries arriving in Burma in 1899, the majority of Chins are Christians. But since Myanmar is filled with violence, religious oppression, dictatorship, racism, and other abuses, we have been unable to grow in our faith. Through the grace of God, my family and thousands of different ethnic tribes have found refuge in America in the early 2000s and are now U.S. citizens. In only 20-25 years of the Chins coming to America, there have been terrible changes in the communities. Since we are a small ethnic group that is relatively new to our faith, our churches, families, and youth are breaking apart due to various factors. The most common struggles would be adjusting to a new culture, learning a language, and supporting family back in Myanmar. This has ultimately led many to distance themselves from their faith and even reject God. Thankfully, my parents are steadfast in their faith and have raised my siblings and me under the Word of God. Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to help my people come to Christ. However, I never thought it would be from pursuing ministry. At first, I planned to get a degree in Bio-Chem at Purdue. I thought my future of serving the Chin people would be through science and raising money. Then I realized that money and medical help will not solve the key issue. Once I got accepted and was ready to commit to Purdue, something in my heart told me that this was not God's plan for me. God worked in miraculous ways and made me realize that the only way to save my community was by leading them to Christ first. I believe that God has called me to help the Chin community in Myanmar, America, and different nations to come to Christ. Hearing the suicides from parents, teenagers joining gangs, and the horrible news coming from the homeland has grown my ambition to share the gospel. Seeing and being able to relate to their struggles, I want to share our living hope in Christ. Right now, I am pursuing Biblical and Theological Studies at Boyce College, the undergraduate institution of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. I plan to finish my degree and pursue higher education so that I can continue to grow in my biblical knowledge, counseling skills, and gain real-life experiences. Although it is significantly costly and is a huge amount to pay off, I believe that God's calling to serve is greater than the struggle I face. I am pursuing this ministry in hopes that the Chin community will grow in their faith, specifically in the Chin youth. Currently, most Chin youths are cultural Christians or atheists. The ambitions I have are specifically to guide and teach Chin youths and lead them towards Jesus Christ in hopes that in the future they may become active participants in growing God's Kingdom across the nations.
