For
thousands of people who have been lost everything they have, now is an
extremely difficult time. Please remember Burma in your prayers.
BMS is continuing to monitor the situation in Burma. Over
recent weeks, we have been able to support our partner organisations
through giving relief grants. This has equipped aid workers on the
ground to reach those worst affected.
There is still much more that needs to be done. A key BMS partner inside Burma has highlighted continuing vast needs.
Together
we urgently need to supply basic necessities such as candles, soap and
medical support, along with generators for ten communities and plastic
roofing for 1,000 families.
Prayer points:- That the flow of aid supplies continues and that it reaches the right
people. Pray that BMS and its partner organisations are wise in how we
distribute resources.
- For the Burmese government, that they continue to allow more workers into the country.
- For Burmese Christians, that they are given the opportunity to show the
love of Jesus in a practical way even when things are difficult.
The
international community has been more than ready to send aid and
workers to the country. The Burmese government is now showing signs of
co-operation, allowing relief workers into the country.
