Kyaw Sann
Kyaw Sann was born in Burma to Buddhist parents. When the military took over the Burmese government, he joined the democracy group. He fled to the jungle to avoid being killed by the Burmese military. While in the jungle, he became friends with a group of Christians. They invited him to a Christmas party, where he he learned about Jesus. During his time in the jungle, he also met a young woman named Ma Cho. Eventually, Ma Cho and Kyaw Sann were married. They were married while Kyaw Sann still professed Serving Sizes Buddhism and Ma Cho followed Christ. Ma Cho was the first Christian in Kyaw Sanns family. Kyaw Sann became distressed over the division in his household as his wife and he followed separate religions. Researching Christianity, Kyaw Sann became convinced that Jesus was the only way to heaven. After years in the jungle and a refugee camp, Kyaw Sann, Ma Cho, and their three children were able to come to the United States as refugees. Once in Fort Wayne, Kyaw Sann was connected with Pastor Keller. Kyaw Sann desired to learn more about the Christian faith and Jesus, so Pastor Keller taught him using the Catechism and the 100 Bible Stories book. Kyaw Sann has taken his faith a step further in partnering with LAMB. He became the translator for the Burmese worship service at New Life Lutheran Church. He also translates bible studies into Burmese, manages an English as a Second language (ESL) program, helps with developing LAMBs Burmese website, and coordinates summer programs. He is meeting felt needs in the Buddhist and Muslim communities by reading mail, making phone calls, and advocating at appointments. Through this, he connects with people and is able to share the love of Jesus with the his fellow Burmese.
