Dear Friends,

 

As if things couldn’t get any worse for Myanmar, the country was struck by a powerful cyclone yesterday.  In the words of one witness, “The whole of Rangoon has been devastated.  I have never seen anything like this in my life”. 

 

I am currently in Thailand and was scheduled to fly back to Myanmar today, but cannot because all flights into and out of the country have been cancelled.  I hope to fly tomorrow or Tuesday.

 

This disaster is worse than hurricane Katrina because Myanmar has no reserves, no emergency response capability and negligible outside assistance.  Food scarcity is a very real concern.

 

I believe that it is incumbent upon us to respond quickly and with tangible action, particularly in the areas of food and shelter assistance.  It is my hope that we can raise $30,000 to provide for these critical needs in the orphanages and homes with whom we are connected.

 

Thank you for praying for Myanmar and for the ministries of MCP during this time of crisis.

 

In Christ, Bill
