 O ur local leader and his wife visited a Township, where many internally displaced families are currently living.  They were able to visit three places and distributed donations from FOB.  They gave one of the gifts to a center where a pastor has been caring for 20 children whose parents are unable to look after them. The children attend a school that is about a 20- to 30-minute walk from the center. Our leaders had the opportunity to encourage them and pray with them. During this difficult time, the pastor and his family have been struggling to feed the children and provide for their daily needs. So they gave them one of the  Christmas gifts to celebrate Christmas this year. They were overjoyed to receive it unexpectedly, and the pastor expressed his heartfelt thanks to the donor.

  It’s been almost five years since the coup and the fighting that has broken out throughout the country.  In one of the hardest hit states, people fled their State and are scattered everywhere, but most have taken refuge in the neighboring  State.  The  townspeople were told to return home but mostly have lost their homes and were not able to go back yet.   Despite the difficult circumstances, a ll the orphans under their care are well, and are studying in a small town.   They are very thankful to God, and all the kind and generous sponsors who are still contributing to the welfare of the children. He said, "We just don’t know how to repay you all. May God bless you all and keep you safe."

 Due to the civil war and fighting in different areas of the country, many people are suffering immensely.   Many people couldn't make a living and are living under great fear.  Some villagers have to flee for their life and are facing much difficulties.  They need food and provision for their basic need.  Your prayers and financial support are greatly appreciated.     Temporary shelter for those who are fleeing 

 Your generous support has allowed Friends of Burma to provide funding to our local leaders who work with different groups, helping them generate some income.  Some groups are women only but some have both men and women.  They used the seed money in various ways:(1) acquiring new skills such as sewing and then work either independently or together with other women as a group (2) gardening and selling the produce for income (3) raising chicken (4) starting a small shop for snacks and some everyday food items such as eggs and others (5) preparing some traditional food from scratch and selling them to neighbors and those who pass by (6) opening a small salon for manicure and pedicure.  They are working hard to meet the need of their families.  Life is not easy for them but they are doing their best.
