From Gary Schellenberg:
Most of you are aware of the coup in Myanmar and the suspension of democracy in that country. The coup resulted in many arrests and upheaval in that country. Christians are being persecuted to the point of death and many are in hiding. As well, Christians are being driven off of their lands and the Church has taken upon itself to house, clothe and feed these displaced people. Covid has just added another layer of despair to the people and they are losing hope. 70 years of suppression have dulled their sense of freedom.
I am telling you this because at Providence University College and Seminary, we have been a training school for the Kachin people (a Province in Myanmar) for many years We currently have a number of students from Kachin Province studying at Providence. One of the leading figures of the Kachin people is a grad of Providence and his name is Samson. Samson has been a fierce advocate of the Kachin Christians and has asked for all Christians to unite in prayer for Myanmar. For the relief from the Covid virus and from government suppression. As you are reminded, would you please pray for the Kachin people and the turmoil in that country.
