TRANSFORMATION
Nestled on the foothills of some beautiful mountains in Bhutan, Dalsingpara town and the surrounding
towns like Jaigaon are covered by the lush green tea gardens. The scenic beauty provides an ideal
location for the Pastors and Leaders training program (1st 5th Sept., 2015). Around 80 pastors and
leaders came from Bhutan for the program. The features of the program were: Developing skills on
preparing and preaching expository sermons (Dr. A.K. Lama); Basics of Biblical Counselling (Dr. Asangla Ao); How to do Inductive Bible Study (Mr. Lee De Young) and Developing Leadership Virtues
(Johnson Raih). Under the leadership of Kunsang, the training program was successfully carried out.
It was a delight to see all the delegates come with a thirst for the Word of God. The training aimed at
equipping the pastors and leaders to be skillful Biblical expositors and Counselors. During the debriefing
time, many of them said that the training program encouraged them to read the Word of God more
and more so that they will become a good shepherds. They were convinced that the Word of God
should speak for itself.
Mr. Karma Tenzin, the one time Olympian, who represented Bhutan in Archery at Barcelona (1992) and
Asian Games in China (1990) said, previously I aimed at the bulls eye for my arrow to hit. After the
TLA training programme, I am encouraged as a pastor, now my vision is to spread out the Word of
God to all the 20 districts of Bhutan. I am very happy to have come and attended this training.

Another landmark achievement of the training program is the formation of the Drukpa Educational Socie-
ty (DES). The vision statement of the DES states, We visualize every person in Bhutan intellectually,
morally, spiritually mature and transformed with the wisdom of God so as to serve their family, society,
and their country. Some other important highlights were: The wonderful worship sessions led by Mrs. Sam Lalparlian and Mrs. Aren, and their
children. The extra-ordinary hospitality shown by Kunsang and his wife Aren to the resource persons is unforgettable.
