Entire
families listen to gospel preaching at a house church in Burma
(Myanmar). People in about 40,000 villages in Burma have never heard the
gospel, according to the director of a ministry based in the country
where 80 percent of the population is Buddhist. Christians account for
about 9 percent of the population, according to Operation World, and
most of them belong to minority groups engaged in fights for
independence, resulting in the Burmese military targeting Christian
civilians. At the same time, the government tacitly supports Buddhist
aggression against Christians. The indigenous ministry sends evangelists
to work among both ethnic minorities and Burmese. “Matthew 24:14 says
that the gospel must be preached to all nations, and then will the end
come. As they hear, they have to decide and the decision is theirs to
make,” he said. “Monthly our native missionaries need $50 to start; it
is the minimum needed to cover their food and travel expenses, and for
the rest they must live by prayer.”
