About My Family
Jesus Christ saved me in 1989. I devoted my life to serving God, and now I hold a Ph.D. I served with the Central India Christian Mission among Burmese refugees in India. I continued serving Burmese migrant communities and others. My wife, Dr. Van Noi Ding, served the Lord in Myanmar from 2002 to 2020 and holds a D.Min. degree.
Together, we bring theological education, pastoral ministry experience, cross-cultural ministry experience, language skills, and a shared burden for Burmese, Chin, and other immigrant communities. We desire to serve families, proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, make disciples, and train Christian leaders to establish gospel-centered churches. We seek to live by the calling: Serving God by serving others. “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve” (Mark 10:45).

About My Church Plant
We are a biblical Burmese church plant in Indianapolis, Indiana, sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with Burmese immigrant communities to make disciples, serve families, train leaders, and plant gospel-centered churches throughout Indianapolis and beyond.
We focus on Greater Indianapolis and the surrounding Indiana communities, especially Burmese, Chin, Karen, and other Asian immigrant families seeking community, hope, and a new beginning. Our vision is to be a Christ-centered church that reflects God’s love, unity, faith, hospitality, and good works. Our mission is to reach Burmese communities with the gospel of Jesus Christ; help immigrant families through prayer, community support, and assistance; build a fellowship where people find worship, discipleship, care, and a sense of belonging; and plant gospel-centered churches.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.
