Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Poland

December 2, 2018

Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Poland 2018

In November 2018 Dr.’s Jonathan Burnham and Vitaly Sorokun traveled To Voronezh, Russia to conduct a Seven Steps of Christian Living conference for pastors and district superintendents from different areas of Russia. The group was also able to Skype with Rev. Sonam Kabo, BMI Regional Director for South Asia. 



FIRST OF ITS KIND MEETING:  Also in Russia a group of prominent Russian businessmen met to discuss BMI Marketplace Biblical Mentorship Program. This is designed to help the business population use their Christian faith in their places of work. They study the 7 Steps, Encountering Christ, Christian Leadership and Management, and Financial Stewardship! The future is exciting in this new area of ministry. Kerry Olin, Microsoft Executive and BMI Board Member joined the group via Skype.

RUSSIAN BUSINESSMEN SINGING REVELATION 15:3-4

After Russia, Jonathan and Vitaly traveled to Minsk, Belarus, to Minsk Theological Seminary (pictured below) to train pastors, seminary professors and some top women leaders from Ukraine and Belarus in Encountering Christ, Part 1.  The group will meet next year for Part 2.  Dr.’s Vitaly Sorokun and Jonathan Burnham also met with leaders from Minsk Theological Seminary who have already gone through the BMI training as well as their own higher education. These leaders are dedicated to the proclamation of Christ-centered theology and want to adopt the BMI Biblical Training and Mentoring Program into the seminary!  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next, Jonathan and Vitaly traveled to Kiev, Ukraine to Irpin Theological Seminary where many of the top women leaders in the Ukrainian Baptist Union met to learn about the BMI programs and training for women’s ministries.  Sue Burnham and Faith Burnham had the privilege of Skyping with this wonderful group of dedicated and talented ladies!  Irpin has adopted much of the BMI training materials into their curriculum, and Vitaly Sorokun travels regularly to teach there.  See these pictures and those of Vitaly’s trip as well below:

Rev. Sonam Kabo in Remote Part of Nepal

November 10, 2018

November 2018 

The Persa District of Nepal is near the border of India and is an extremely remote region. A pastor who was in the Indian Army, and gave his life to Christ there, requested that Rev. Sonam Kabo come to the region to start a BMI Biblical Training and Mentoring Program (BTMP). It is interesting to read Sonam’s account of his journey to this region: 

“The journey by bus was 13 hours one way – 8 hours by national highway and 5 hours on a riverside, muddy road through dense forests. This village was in the midst of a jungle and the pastor told me that on occasion there have been cases of wild tigers who come near the village and attack the children while playing outside their houses. There are also snakes that come inside the homes and bite people while they are sleeping. I felt that I was being taken to be slain while traveling by bus in this dense forest road which I have never experienced before in my life! However, by God’s grace, I was able to arrive in this village safely and the training went very well. Despite all these challenges, I was able to train 16 needy pastors and leaders of 14 house churches of this district!” 

Sonam also sent the number of participants of each region that were trained with the 7 Steps of Christian Living and the BTMP (Biblical Training and Mentoring Program) in just two months:

1. 16 people were trained in Persa District

2. 250 people were trained in Hetauda region

3. 30 people were trained in partnership with SMM in Siliguri region

4. 195 people were trained in Darjeeling

5. 160 people were trained in Nagaland

6. 11 final year students of Nepal Ebenezer Bible College (NEBC)

7. 45 students of NBC ( Nepal Bible College)

Sonam’s wife, Rita, has trained hundreds of women this year alone in Nepal and India!  She also is the Principal of Elim Kids Academy, a Christian school of 300 children in Kathmandu, Nepal.
