Global Day of Prayer for Burma
Aren't these children beautiful? They are a part of the Karen ethnic group in Burma. The Burmese have targeted the Karen for Ethnic Cleansing. These beautiful people are constantly on the run for their lives. They must move about in the jungle to avoid being caught by the army. If caught, they face torture, forced labor, rape and death. A large percentage of this group of people are Christian. This makes them even more of a target for the army who wants to create one nation (Burma), one language (Burmese) and one religion (Buddhism). Please pray today and continually for the Karen. Pray for Rock Springs Church as we adopt a Karen refugee family that is moving to TN. For more information about the Karen go to the Free Burma Rangers website.
