In 2006, Farthest Corners met with a committee of church and community leaders in Karen State, Burma. They proposed to build a home for children to come and study at the only high school within a five day walk. Most of these children have lost one or two parents by either the Burma Army killing them or because of disease. After a great deal of prayer and an abundance of faith, Farthest Corners partnered with this committee to create Happy’s Home, providing housing and education to fifty children. We have also helped with development projects near the home to help make the people there more self sufficient. More…
Since 2007, Farthest Corners has provided schools in Burma and along the Thailand border with resources and books. We have recently begun a new effort to establish libraries in Burma and to train teachers how to use these valuable resources. For more information visit Education.
In 2009, Farthest Corners began providing scholarships to students in regional seminaries. After completing studies, the students will be equipped to perform social work and evangelism in villages and new mission fields. For more information visit Seminary Student Support.
