In order to reach the people with the gospel of Christ and to plant churches everywhere in Myanmar several ministries are being carried out as follows. To support and to promote the mission work within the country the Christian Reformed Home Mission was organized. Under the supervision of Home Mission, evangelists are working among non-Christians and planting churches. In spite of hardship and discrimination against Christianity several churches are being planted in villages in the mountain areas. basic health education trainings were given to evangelists and church planters to help people in the remote areas in the mountains, teaching them how to protect themselves from diseases. A small clinic was opened in Matupi in 1999. A part-time doctor, a health technician, a pharmacist and a nurse are working at the clinic. They help people with medicines and health education. To encourage the mission work of the church the Christian Reformed Women's Association was formed in the churches. This Women's Association assists the mission work by raising the funds and prayers. Youth Fellowship among Christian Reformed was also formed to have mutual understanding between young people, and to promote Christian education among the youth. The Youth Fellowship has its conference once a year. To train those who are called to God to be his servants, Reformed Theological College was started in Yangon in 1997. The college offers Bachelor of Theology and Diploma in Theology courses. In order to help the orphans and to get them education the church also founded a Christian Reformed Orphanage Boarding house in Myokchawkone, Ywarlay, Hmawbi, Yangon. The children from this boarding house go to school in the daytime and in the evening they are taught Christian faith and life at the boarding house. Chan Thleng
