3 Updates from Myanmar

Recently, we connected with several of our Myanmar Field Partners over Zoom. The ongoing military crisis continues to impact daily life for everyone. Several mentioned major concerns with the new conscription law instituted by the junta requiring all healthy men and women between 18-35 to sign up for two years of military service. Junta officials are visiting homes to take a census.

• One of our Partners was warned not to allow new people to stay at the house and to report any visitors immediately. He is hosting discipleship training for young people, but officially calling it an English class due to the risk from the military. 

• Raj, a church planter and Field Partner, told us, "We are very close to the fighting and are often worried about what will happen, even in the next hour. Last night we packed our bags and were ready to run but realized we did not need to yet." 

• Please keep Paung Maung in your prayers; he was in a bad motorbike accident and suffered a head injury. He is currently staying at a hospital receiving treatment.
