Death in Myanmar


I had to add this photo of a street in Myanmar empty of protesters, except for the sandals left behind when soldiers dispersed them with tear gas and clubs and bullets. We now know that a number of protesters have died, including buddhist monks.
The international community, including the churches, need to increase the pressure on a government infamous for its brutality. Even though it may have little immediate impact, turning blind eye is not the answer.
Please continue to pray. This may be a turning point in the history of this country and the monks and nuns could lead the way.
