Summary

SummaryπŸ™πŸ½ When I lived in Myanmar, I supported ethnic Christiansβ€”bringing them rice, oil, Bibles, and hymn booksβ€”even while knowing it could cost me my freedom or life. After the 2021 coup, things became dangerous. The military flagged my identity, shut down my banking, and began tracking me. My health deteriorated from fearβ€”I couldn’t sleep, always listening for cars that might come to arrest me. Eventually, Open Doors partners helped me flee to a neighboring country. I’m not completely safe, but I continue to trust God. My dream is to one day return and resume my ministry. Please pray for me and all believers suffering in Myanmar. May God’s hand be upon us βœοΈπŸ‡²πŸ‡²πŸ’”

Since the military coup in 2021, digital monitoring in Myanmar has increased. Ko Aung* had to flee the country because of his work with ethnic-minority Christians – but he’s still not safe.
