Following the military coup that occurred earlier this year in Myanmar, authorities have been searching for local church leader Maung, seeking to detain him for his faithful Christian witness and leadership among congregants. Fearing for his life, Maung is moving from house to house and is unable to support his wife and their two young children. Pray for Maung to be strong in his faith. Pray for his family’s needs to be met, and pray for his church to be strengthened. Pray also for peace and stability in Myanmar.<\/p>\n
