Myanmar: Help in the midst of crisis

Myanmar faced a devastating humanitarian crisis following the 7.7 magnitude earthquake on 28 March. More than two weeks later, families were still stranded, sleeping on the streets and filled with fear for the future. With widespread power cuts, limited access to clean water and medical care, the need for help was urgent.

In response, we mobilised teams in partnership with local churches in Mandalay – near the epicentre of the earthquake – to provide immediate assistance and hope to those affected. Emergency outreach packs were distributed to over 550 families. These packages contained essential supplies such as food, clean water, medicine, torches, mosquito nets, mosquito repellent and the booklet “The Story of Jesus”. Each item provided not only physical support but also comfort and spiritual encouragement in a time of crisis.

Local pastors played a crucial role, not only in distributing aid but also in praying, sharing the Gospel and linking families to neighbouring Christian communities. In a country that is 89% Buddhist, this outreach became a powerful testimony of compassion and faith, planting seeds of hope in hearts yearning for peace.

Thanks to the generosity of donors and the dedication of our teams, countless lives were touched. We continue to pray for those affected and for lasting transformation through this ministry. We invite you to join us in prayer – for those helped, for continued healing and safety, and for the light of Christ to continue to shine in Myanmar.

Together we made a difference. Together we brought light into the darkness.
