Committed to planting churches, equipping leaders, and bringing hope to the unreached.
Ngeng Chhuana is a seasoned ministry leader, church-planting coach, and leadership developer with more than 25 years of experience equipping and serving Christian leaders across Myanmar.
Following a life-changing spiritual awakening in 1989, Chhuana pursued formal theological training, earning both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Theology. His passion for leadership development led him into full-time ministry in 2000. That same year, he married his wife, Cing Za Lun (also known as Lunpi). Together, they served from 2000 to 2002 as National Coordinators for Foundations for Christian Leadership (FCL), helping to strengthen and equip emerging leaders nationwide.
Chhuana was later ordained by the Evangelical Free Church of Myanmar (EFCM) and went on to serve as Pastor of the Evangelical Free Church of Yangon City from 2002 to 2005. He also contributed significantly to theological education as Dean of Students at Free Gospel Outreach Bible College (2006–2008), investing deeply in the spiritual formation and leadership development of future pastors and ministry leaders.
In response to Cyclone Nargis in 2008, and driven by a vision for holistic ministry, Chhuana and his wife founded ReachMyanmar Ministry. This ministry focuses on disaster relief, children’s education, leadership development, and strategic church planting, working in close partnership with local churches and community leaders.
From 2016 to the present, Chhuana founded and leads Hope for the New Generation, a nonprofit child sponsorship ministry dedicated to nurturing children spiritually, educationally, and socially. Since 2017, he has served as Country Leader and Facilitator for the International Leadership Institute (ILI) Myanmar, playing a key role in equipping pastors and church planters across the nation.
Currently, Chhuana also serves on the working team of Asian Access (A3) Myanmar and as part of the leadership team for the Good Samaritan Leadership School (FGA, Myitkyina). His primary focus is mentoring the next generation of church leaders for effective church planting and transformational ministry. Most recently, he has been actively leading relief responses and church-planting initiatives in Mandalay following the 2025 earthquake, standing alongside affected communities during a time of great need.
Chhuana and Lunpi live in Yangon, Myanmar, and continue to serve faithfully with a deep commitment to equipping leaders, planting healthy churches, and transforming lives through the gospel across the nation.
As God placed a deep passion for leadership development in our hearts, we prayed for many years to have our own training center in Yangon. In His faithfulness, God first provided the land, and later, in 2022, He provided for the construction of the building. This provision came during a season of great challenges—economic instability and many other chaotic situations in Myanmar—yet God proved Himself faithful in every season.
By God’s grace, we began using our own training center in June 2023. Since then, in partnership with the Good Samaritan Leadership School, we have been conducting missions and leadership training each year for men and women who have received God’s call into full-time ministry. These include church planters, pastors, Bible teachers, and ministry workers serving in various regions across Myanmar.
The Chhuana Training Center, located in Mingalardon Township, Yangon, has become a vital platform for equipping leaders to serve faithfully and effectively. Leadership training remains one of our core ministry focuses as we prepare the next generation of leaders to advance God’s mission throughout the nation.
