| Description Program Srvc Accom | Chinese Worldwide Gospel Mission ("CWGM") mission in China include Bible teaching, dual-duty ministry, ministry for Chinese entrepreneurs, mission for Chinese minority and college students. Many people in China wanted to become Christian, but CWGM noticed they lacked of basic fundamental understanding of the Bible. So the ministry encouraged them to take training first. In 2017 CWGM continued to coordinating with local volunteers, pastors, and missionaries, reaching out people in Yunnan province in China. They went to deep southern of the province adjacent to Burma and Thailand where majority are non-Christians. In the area poverty and undeveloped infrastructure deterred other volunteers but not from CWGM. They visited orphanage in Thailand and Burma, preached to the local children. The volunteers built fence, walls, and shelters in Thailand to help local people set temporary shelter for those who lost home during raining season in 2017. Local translators assisted CWGM volunteers in Thailand and taught Bible classes to those who wanted to become Christian. CWGM is looking forward to expanding mission outreach in rural areas near the border of Thailand and Southern China. Purpose of the mission is to inspire love and God's word to those young people who were unable to find steady job in China. CWGM volunteers connected to local bakery shops and arranged those young people to learn skills while taking a serving internship at bakery shop. | DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt |
