VOP honors 156 candidates

The “Follow the Bible” program has been a great blessing to the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Myanmar. Inspired by this initiative, the Voice of Prophecy (VOP) Bible Correspondence School has awarded Certificates of Completion from different courses to 156 candidates at the Yangon Central Church on August 22.

During the graduation, Pastor Khin Maung Latt, Sabbath School and VOP director for MYUM, commended the work of the Correspondence School in taking the gospel message to the communities. Pastor Muller Kyaw, president fof the Adventist church in Myanman, and his team also witnessed the ceremony.

Among the 156 VOP graduates were prominent personalities in Myanmar. They were Dr Nay Lin and Dr Win Tun, both surgeons from the Yangon General Hospital, Surgery Department.

An elderly and retired teacher, Mrs Tin Tin Shwe, told of her joys for the new insights she got from studying the lessons. “It was so exciting and beneficial for me to study all the lessons in these correspondence courses.”

Voice of Prophecy instructor Ms Soe Sandar concluded: “Indeed, the correspondence school in Myanmar has seen people receiving new insights as they study these VOP lessons and we are glad to see increasing enrollment every year.” [Myo Chan]
