The Intercession Alert for March, 2009
-------------------------------------
Dear Friend of the Persecuted Church--
I don't think it's any accident that we use the phrase “close to home” to indicate something that impacts us on a personal level. Something that happens on your street, in your town, or even in your state impacts you more than something that happens on the other side of the nation or the world.
But oftentimes, even when you've only been there once, the other side of the world can seem like next door – made all the easier by the common bond of the Body of Christ, that knows no geographical bounds. When something happens these brothers and sisters, it is just as personal as if it would have happened next door.
Many from Remember have had the chance to find this personalization by meeting with members of the Body of Christ all across the world – men, women, and children who have given literally everything for the cause of Christ. And there are times when they sacrifice, and that sacrifice affects us all.
Just a couple of weeks ago, one of the clinics that Remember has visited and worked with was raided by the Burmese army. Here's how a member of the Remember Board of Directors, who has personally been there, shared the news.
* * *
To our May '07 team members, you will remember where we were, and you know just how close to the Thai border this Burmese offensive has come. The situation is certainly worsening in the Karen state, and all the more reason to compel us and all Christians to pray for the Karen people.
May God minister healing and hope to these blessed servants of His. They may be persecuted, but they are never Forsaken!
* * *
Yours for the Body of Christ,
Gabriel J. Waddell
