About the Founder
John Aungko Thang was born in Myanmar to a family of business parents. He was very sick when he was born and all the hospital doctors and nurses gave up on his life/health; all people expected him to soon die. Whenever people heard the bell of death ringing they would visit his parents’ house to give comfort, then realized that he was still alive. By God’s grace, something amazing happened to him that the world needs.
Education and Family
John has earned a Bachelor of Arts (LLB), Diploma of International Relationships and Diploma of Business Administration. He currently lives at South side of Indianapolis with his beautiful wife and two blessed children and is employed with Family and Social Services Administration for the State of Indiana.
Passion
God has given John the same dreams every year since he was age four. In 1994 God spoke to him by the scripture of “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” (Luke 4:18-19)
In the summers of 1995 and 1996, John was much revived with evangelical devotion; he was baptized in 1997. He led friends and youth in a 1998 Christian group named “New Life” and founded PEACE ministry in AD 2000. Over one million motivation flyers were printed with the word of God (Mark 15:16) in different languages and spread to the world.
Since John came to the United State, his passion is more fired and has kept him involved in the community, ministry and church activities. His calling is to serve God by serving those like you. His heart is always concerned for the poor, orphanages, schools, elderly, children, families, isolated and rejected, homeless, refugee/ immigrant, prisoner, sick and little ones. John is eager to use his whole life for peace.
To God alone be the glory.

We will be feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and serving the poor by providing basic necessities such as nutritious food, water, clothing, hygiene, shelter, disaster relief, maternal, child care and medical supplies to all those in need. By doing this we want to help people find and build a personal relationship with God and help them succeed in life physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Jesus
Who is Jesus? Let me introduce to you about The Lord Jesus Christ for your eternal life.
Jesus is the savior of the world for you and me and for all humanity. For God so loved the world and sent His Son to die for your sins. “The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.” (Colossians 1:15).
The important things are who is Jesus to you? Jesus died in our place so we could have a relationship with God and be with Him forever, but it did not end with His death on the cross. He rose again and still lives! Christ died for our sin… He was buried… He was raised on the third days, according to the Scriptures. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
How can you be saved? “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved.” (Acts 16:30). So we must believe that “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Why? Because they don’t know Christ! Jesus Christ is the One that brings peace in our hearts.
