Tragedy in Burma

 

Some of the atrocities happening in Burma have hit the main-stream news, but the situation is worse than most people think. We did hear from Ca Mvuh this past week and he said he and his family is safe at present. He asked for prayer, but has to becareful in what he says. We have heard that the government has been cutting internet cables to Tachileik where he lives in order to keep conditions away from the Western World. But some pictures have been able to get out. Most of the people have had bad experiences with the army in the past and there are stories of the military destroying

PRAYER REQUESTS

1 Pray that the Thai, Burma and Lao borders will open up.

2. Pray that the recent coup in Burma will not adversely affect Christian work there.

3. Pray that the churches will open up so we can hold meetings.

4. Pray for Meeseeree as he tries to get a small Bible school open in Mechan

5. Pray that the Golden Triangle will get sufficient rain for crops.

Hundreds of villages in some areas with the people hiding in the jungles. Most of the tribal groups which have fought against the government in the past are set to do so again. Thailand is hot and dry—many mountain villages are running out of water. Meeseree reports one decent rain so far but is praying for sufficient rain that he can put crops in this year. He has a training session scheduled for the end of the month in a Red Lahu village near the border with Burma. If he holds his training sessions in villages, the training can accommodate more individuals. He will likely have 30 or 40 individuals attending during day time hours and perhaps a hundred in the evenings.

The border with Laos remains closed. Pray that it will open so training for those in Laos can be resumed.
