Burma is one of the poorest countries in the world.

It is ruled by one of the world’s most brutal regimes, guilty of every possible human rights violation. 

It also has one of the worst records of religious persecution in the world.

 

 

Burmese IDPs urgently need your prayers

 

 

Raise your voice in prayer for internally displaced persons (IDPs) forced to flee Burma Army attacks early in June.

Around 5,000 IDPs fled Ler Per Her camp and surrounding villages as the Burma Army and its allies attacked the camp.

Villagers fear for their lives as they face being forced to be porters and human mine sweepers for the Burma Army – up to 200 people have reportedly been taken for slave labour.

They are in urgent need of your prayer and support.

 

 

 

Here's how you can get involved...

1. Visit our prayer page for more information and to download the Change for Burma! urgent prayer alert.
2. Take action today!  Email your MP in our new action to call for the UN Security Council to initiate a UN commission of inquiry into crimes against humanity in Burma.
3. Watch our new film, Burma: A journey for change, to journey with the CSW team as they visited Ler Per Her camp earlier this year.
