The project in Myanmar is located in Yangon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are currently 30 children living in this children's home. The children's home is part of Win Myanmar Mission, founded in 2003 by pastor Dr. Philip Thang. Pastor Philip is primarily focused on reaching the lost in Myanmar. In 1975 this pastor came to faith during a campaign. After his radical conversion, he has a strong desire to serve the Lord.
Mattheus van der Steen and team went to Myanmar in January 2010 to hold a conference with Pastor Philip. Hundreds of people have come to faith and many have been healed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The same team paid a visit to Pastor Philip's children's home and decided to include these children in Project Held. The goal of Win Myanmar Mission is to provide the children with a safe home, where they receive healing and recovery and thus blossom into strong, independent individuals rooted in the love of Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Myanmar has long been a country of persecution. Many people fled to the cities or went into hiding and their children were left behind with all the consequences. Pastor Philip and his team take in children and give them a home. In addition, these children can go to school in order to have a better future. Something that is not always self-evident for the \u201cordinary\u201d population in Myanmar. Thanks to sponsorship, these children can build a hopeful future and they are firm in their beliefs and convictions.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":11975,"template":"","tags":[93,92],"landen":[199],"class_list":["post-11817","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-dr-philip-thang","tag-win-myanmar-mission","landen-myanmar"],"meta_box":{"projectnummer":"33","website":"","projectsoort":"1"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/11817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11817"},{"taxonomy":"landen","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/projectheld.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/landen?post=11817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
