Prison authorities shot and killed seven inmates and injured 12 more inside Kale Prison in western Sagaing Region on Tuesday evening in what the junta has said was a hostage crisis and escape attempt instigated by the prisoners. The junta identified the casualties as Myo Min Tun, Win Ko Naing, Maung Nyi, Chan Min Ko, Tuu Khine, Nyunt Win Aung and Salai Shalom Shan Thang Lian @ Van Din. 

Van Din was a member of the Chin National Organization/Chin National Defense Force (CNO/CNDF) who was arrested by the Military Council in Kale township in June 2021 and was being held in Kale Prison, according to the Chin National Defense Force.

Locals and an area resistance force have rejected the military’s claim and condemned the shootings. According to an AAPP (Assistance Association for Political Prisoners) report, over nine thousand people have been arrested, charged or sentenced as of 17 March 2022. 

“Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering.”

Pray over these people who have been arrested since the coup began. Pray that they encounter the peace and hope of Jesus that sustained the apostles in prison.

One of our partner organizations has decided to send out 100 missionaries to local villages. The church believes the powerful testimonies and passion of new believers can be funneled into sharing the Gospel and making disciples in the hidden communities of Myanmar.

100 New Missionaries

Please pray for wisdom and success as the ministry disciples and equips these new believers to share the Gospel. Pray for the completion of the Great Commission.

“Mrs. Aye and Aunty Hla* are very poor and homeless and worry constantly about how their needs will be met. Aunty Hla’s husband is a drunk and an addict, so her family members have constant arguments. When they heard that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life they decided to accept Him as the Lord and Savior of their hearts. After believing in Jesus, they felt release, joy, and peace. They are very happy and smile all the time. They love Jesus and to be in fellowship with other believers.” ~A ministry partner in Myanmar

Mrs. Aye and Aunty Hla

Please pray for them to grow in the spirit as they are discipled. Pray for more souls to say yes to Jesus just like Mrs. Aye and Aunty Hla.

People in Myanmar have been divided by ethnic group for many centuries. With the addition of different Christian denominations, believers now find themselves divided both by ethnicity as well as denomination. For example, Karen Baptists are divided from Karen Anglicans or Methodists — as well as Baptists of other ethnic groups. But praise the Lord; there are signs of change in the hearts of believers.

Christian Division

Pray for God to deeply convict His Body in Myanmar, that He calls them to love and unity, and that they hear and obey Him. 

"I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment" (1 Cor 1:10).
