If you want some serious encouragement, check this out. Remember those small churches in south central Burma I posted about a few weeks ago? We recently received another email from David, the Pastors College student I talked about in that post. He sent some further prayer requests, and included a few photos from these remote churches that are safe to share online.
David writes,
Believers continue to meet faithfully even in the midst of some severe pressure….Our church plant in the Delta continues to witness to the gospel to the…people and many more families send their children to our preschool, even though the majority of these parents initially rejected us. Our churches in [another region] also continue to witness some growth.
Please continue to pray for [our church-planting center]. Many of these works are now taken up by…senior students. We now begin to see the fruit of the training we provided.

Will you pray with us for these brothers and sisters in Christ? Please pray that the gospel will continue to advance in Burma. Pray for wisdom and boldness for David and the pastors he works with. Pray that many would be saved to the glory of God.
