memories of Ukhrul

I went to Ukhrul today and it could be one of my latter visits to the town and there were many things in my memories that linked Ukhrul with my life. One day I hope I will find time to recollect and write them down in some little details. But today let me list them here
1. Great people from Ukhrul I had known early in my life - Luikham (SDC Thanlon 1950s), Mr Yangmasho Shaiza (SDO/BDO Thanlon 1960s), Rishang Keishing MP (1964), Tuizar Health Secretary (1980s)
2. My visit to Ukhrul while Pu TC Tiankham was posted as the first DC of Ukhrul District (1969/70s)
3. My visit during with Dr Sinate for Medical Dte meeting under Dr PK Singh
4. My visits to Ukhrul to start IDU TI under ORCHID Project in 2004
5. My visit to Ukhrul and visit 2 AIDS orphans living with grand parents and how we had help to carry the sick younger one of 11 with her elder sibling of 14 and their grandfather
6. To visit the positive women with Pastor Shimray
7. To attend Pastor Shimray's ordination
8. To visit Schifrilec - the happening place for adolescent in the town!
9. the visit to and climb to Siroy hill!
10. Last visit today and met a woman of 20 who had just delivered delivered a month ago - having military TB and low CD4 count and very very anemic. her baby weighted 1.5 kg. Will the baby and the mother survived? Please God, let her survive!
11. The many great people from Uhkrul I befriended or had a chance to met …….. church leaders, doctors, engineers IAS officers and other professionals, academicians, society leaders, …. I cannot mentioned many names here … but my great friends are Verypam, Nelson, ……...

farewell to a minister

Dear Brother Mansang, 

I suppose Ecclesiastes Chapter 3 is there for us to prepare us and be comforted for a time such as this as it has to come to everyone at one time or other. A time when when we pass on the batons! A time when new and young leaders take up positions and responsibilities. A time as ordained by God. So in such a moment as this – I believe the best attitude to have is an attitude of celebrations as we accept the eventuality and the unavoidable and the reality. 

So we celebrate – in your last month in NEICORD – of the good years you gave to it and the good works you brought into and the good shape of the baton you are passing it on!  I wish to celebrate here  of a person who had a good career in the government (was ithe District Library then?) but left it to the call to be a minister and then found out as a minister called back to be in a ministry outside the mainline church (while being truly part of the church) and be a leader in the church in the market place (as it were).  I salute such a minister and praise God for such a calling for a highly demanded minister to be in the not so well-respected NGO area! 

Thank you for all that you have done. A good friend of mine once said – when I die I wished the widows will cry over my dead body – well today you have so many people especially widows – belonging to people living with AIDS – who will remember you throughout their life. I am sure you would be one of those who in heaven would get the applause of "well done". We echo that heavenly applause today. 

Warmest regards, 

Langkham

Fellowship For Transformation Through Caring

Dear friends in His vineyard,

I am very pleased to let you know that the Board of NEICORD had graciously agreed to release me from my service by the end of October, 2013. I would therefore, be leaving the Executive Director position and hand over the charge to the new Executive Director or to the Chairperson of the board on 31^st of October 2013. I have enjoyed my journey here and I sincerely appreciate having had the chance and privilege of working with you.

I have enjoyed working here with a team of young, dynamic and committed staff. I will greatly miss our daily interactions, devotions and working on different projects with each one of you. It is my desire and prayer that God would bring in a much better successor to bring the organization to a higher level.

Thank you all for the support and encouragement you have provided me during my time at NEICORD. I will cherish my journey through NEICORD with you all. I would appreciate your continued advice and prayer support as I start the next phase of my career.

[05/08/13 9:01:27 PM] sam ngaihte: Lyrics:
Phuahtu: Suakliana(1901-1970)

Jerusalem Zion khawpui chu thlir teh u,
Let’s gaze upon Jerusalem, the City of Zion,
Aw mi an tam, beramno Lal lennan hmun a awm lo;
Oh in the large crowd, there is not any place for the Lamb King to dwell;
Aw lungngaihna leh lawmna Kalvari tlang a lo lang e.
Oh the sorrowful and the joyful Calvary mount can be seen.

Chorus:
Aw hnam zawng zawng leh chi tin tawng tin hi,
Oh of all the nations and all the tongues  (in the world)
Vanlal nau ang a tahna Kalvari ah an dang chuang lo ve;
No difference is there at Calvary where the King of heaven wept;
An dang chuang love chitin tawngtin hi
Yeah, no differences are there among nations and tongues
Vanlal nau ang a tahna Kalvari ah an dang chu,ang lo ve.
At Calvary where the King of Heaven cried – they have no difference.

2.
Jerusalem khawpui thar nuam chu thlir teh u,
Gaze upon/think of/consider the new city of Jerusalem,
Aw mi an tam beramno lal lenna hmun mawi ah chuan;
Oh there are so many in the beautiful land where the Lamb King reigns
Aw Kalvari ah Pathian khawngaihna dawn a tul mange.
The grace of God from Calvary –  oh, how we all need to receive !

3.
Haleluiah hrilthiam ila haleluiah,
Hallelujah, if one could only tell, Halleluijah,
Aw hmangaihna dai chuang ngailo nunna parmawi;
Oh His love that will never grow old - the beautiful bouquet of life
Sawithiam awm maw hrilh thiam awm tak ang maw Aw hmangaihna hi.
Would you ever find one who could speak and tell adequately of His love?
 
Second lyrics
1.
A hmangaihna a ka chawlhin ka Pan min hre tawh,
When I rest in His love my Father already knew me,
A duhzawng ka tih apiangin mal min sawm fo thin;
Whenever I do His will, He always blesses me;
Thahnemngaih nachang ka hriatin ka tan malsawmna,
When I learn how to persevere then it becomes my blessing
Lungngaiha inchhir avangin hmangaihna ka hmu.
As I sorrow over my sin I receive His grace

2.
A fa a ka awm hma pawh in ka Pa'n min hre tawh,
Even before I became His son, My Father already knew me
Thlaler hreawm a ka awmin a nin min veng zel:
When I was in a difficult desert he always protected me;
Tun thleng in min la hruai fova hlauhawm zingah pawh,
Even this day he always leaded me through all sorts of danger,
Lawmtakin keiin ka zui ang Zion tlang thlengin.
So I will follow Him gladly till the mount of Zion.

3.
Lalpa chawimawi turin in pe la khawvel ah hian,
Offer yourself to praise Him while still here on earth,
I sualna zawng zawng nen pan la a lo chhawk ang che:
Come to him with your load of sin He will relieve you;
I lawmna chu a chuai lovang Lalpa hma ah chuan,
Your joy will never grow old in the presence of the Lord
Lalpa chu fakin lo zai la Zion tlang thlengin.
Come singing praising the Lord till you reach mount Zion.
