This March, we\u2019re dedicating the whole week of 7-13 March to praying for Burma. In November 2015, Aung San Suu Kyi\u2019s National league for Democracy (NLD) party was elected to power, ending over a decade of oppressive military rule.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re excited about this important step for Burma, but this is just the start of a long road. Aung San Suu Kyi herself said in a recent interview that \u201cPrejudice is not removed easily and hatred is not going to be removed easily.\u201d<\/p>\n
March 7-13, CSW will be holding an online week of prayer. You can join us by signing up for daily prayer emails, so you too can pray for the future of Burma at this critical time.<\/p>\n
