Political Unrest

I have been meaning to post this for a few weeks now. Ezekiel sent us an email back on the 8th of November. Seems like there is quite a bit of trouble over there in Mae Sot and Myanmar. Wanted to share this last email from Ezekiel. Keep the Mission in your prayers as they are receiving larger numbers of refugees fleeing the fighting and bombing.

We are looking to try and put a fundraiser together to help with some more funds to help

Dear friends in Christ,

Yesterday was a day of election had done in Burma. From early morning today had started a worse war with the minority groups who are fighting for democracy for many years. From early morning to right now at 7:00 p.m. the Burmese government troops and minority groups are fighting along Thai-Burma borders and in side of the Myawadee city which is situated just opposite Masesot. Some shell landed in side Thailand and some Thai civilian lost life and many injury and hurts. Over 20,000 refugee are arriving in Maesot from Burma. We do not know how many will be coming tonight. Most of them are women, older age people and children. The battle is going worse moment by moment. It seems no way to end. The refugee need food, shelters, waters, clothes and medicines urgently. Please pray for this people and take a time of consideration for this people. to help.

Yours in Christ,

Ezekiel
