Prayer is critical for military-ruled Myanmar after Cyclone Nargis blasted the country’s western coast on Saturday, May 3, 2008, killing 23,000 people and leaving more than 42,000 others missing. Nearly half the country’s population, some 24 million people, have been affected by the storm. Since the cyclone hit, the military junta, which has kept the impoverished nation isolated for five decades to maintain its iron-fisted control, has been criticized for restricting access to foreign officials and organizations to the country, and aid groups were struggling to deliver relief goods. According to the World Evangelical Alliance Religious Liberty Commission, the junta has escalated its efforts—as its official policy states—to “destroy the Christian religion in Burma.” The junta also represses and persecutes the mostly Christian ethnic minorities and is waging a genocidal war against the ethnic Karen in the east.

Emergency Prayer Alert-Myanmar (Burma)

Death toll from nation’s worst cyclone ever may reach 100,000

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Prayer is critical for military-ruled Myanmar after Cyclone Nargis blasted the country’s western coast onSaturday, May 3, 2008, killing 23,000 people and leaving more than 42,000 others missing.

A top U.S. diplomat in Myanmar said this week that the toll from the cyclone and its aftermath may reach 100,000, the Associated Press (AP) reported. Nearly half the country’s population, some 24 million people, has been affected by the storm.

Since the cyclone hit, the military junta, which has kept the impoverished nation isolated for five decades to maintain its iron-fisted control, has been criticized for restricting access to foreign officials and organizations to the country, and aid groups were struggling to deliver relief goods.

The cyclone came a week before a key referendum on a proposed constitution backed by the junta, the AP reported. State radio said the May 10, 2008 vote would be delayed until May 24, 2008  in 40 of 45 townships in the Yangon area and seven in the Irrawaddy delta. But it indicated the balloting would proceed in other areas as scheduled.

Operation World estimated that Burma is now 8.7 percent Christian, while 70 percent of the Burmese population is Buddhist.

According to the World Evangelical Alliance Religious Liberty Commission, the junta has escalated its efforts—as its official policy states—to “destroy the Christian religion in Burma.” The junta also represses and persecutes the mostly Christian ethnic minorities and is waging a genocidal war against the ethnic Karen in the east.

According to Window International Network’s Praying Through The Window 9 prayer calendar, the day of prayer for Myanmar is on day 22.

Prayer is crucial for Ethiopia as another opposition party announced Wednesday, April 16, 2008 that they would boycott the African nation’s second round of local elections due to rigging and intimidation, the Associated Press (AP) reported. Held Sunday, April 13, 2008, the first round of elections covered nearly 4 million positions from local councils to many of the seats in parliament, the BBC reported. Further elections will be held Sunday, April 20, 2008.

Last week, the United Ethiopian Democratic Forces, the nation’s largest opposition group, also pulled their 6,000 candidates out of the election, claiming that some 14,000 of their candidates had been forced to drop out, the AP reported. Meanwhile, evangelicals in Ethiopia, who may account for as much as 20 percent of the population, face severe persecution, Mission Network News reported. Attacks against Christians have risen in some Muslim-dominated areas as militants began purging Christian Believers.

Last week, the United Ethiopian Democratic Forces, the nation’s largest opposition group, also pulled their 6,000 candidates out of the election, claiming that some 14,000 of their candidates had been forced to drop out, the AP reported.

Prime Minister Meles Zenawi’s Ethiopia Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front party is expected to win, with its candidates unopposed in many places, the BBC reported.

In the last elections in 2005, candidates fighting under the banner of the Coalition for Unity and Democracy won a landslide victory in Addis Ababa, but the polls were followed by violent protests.

Meanwhile, evangelicals in Ethiopia, who may account for as much as 20 percent of the population, face severe persecution, Mission Network News reported.

Attacks against Christians have risen in some Muslim-dominated areas as militants began purging Christian Believers, including an incident in March in the town of Nensabo.

“A group of radical Muslims determined to rid their area of the ‘shame of Christianity’ came against these Believers as they were gathered for worship,” Voice of the Martyrs’ Todd Nettleton said. “At least two Christians were killed, and literally dozens were wounded.”

Intercessors are needed to pray for the small West African nation of Benin as campaigning for forthcoming local elections has been marked by tight competitions, an outbreak of violence and doubts over how politicians can change daily life, Voice of America (VOA) reported. At the start of the campaigning for the April 20, 2008 vote, President Boni Yayi called for peaceful, transparent, just and credible elections. A total of 4 million voters will be able to choose thousands of village, neighborhood, town and municipal representatives. A former Muslim, Yayi, who was elected in 2006, is now an evangelical Christian and has sought to use his expertise in economics to further help his country out of poverty, according to 24-7 Prayer.

African’s nation election campaign marked by competition, doubts, violence

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Intercessors are needed to pray for the small West African nation of Benin as campaigning for forthcoming local elections has been marked by tight competitions, an outbreak of violence and doubts over how politicians can change daily life, Voice of America (VOA) reported.

At the start of the campaigning for the April 20, 2008 vote, President Boni Yayi called for peaceful, transparent, just and credible elections. A total of 4 million voters will be able to choose thousands of village, neighborhood, town and municipal representatives.

Yayi said he wanted the process to be a celebration of democracy, with rival politicians being adversaries and not enemies, VOA reported.

But following the death of a mayor in the central town of Glazoue, riots broke out on April 11, 2008 led by ruling party militants who thought foul play had caused their mayor’s death.  The mayor had been seeking re-election, but apparently died of natural causes. Another person died of wounds sustained during the violence, VOA reported.

Many had high hopes when President Yayi took power two years ago, promising an economic overhaul. But widespread poverty persists and frustrations are growing with rising prices, VOA reported.

A former Muslim, Yayi, who was elected in 2006, is now an evangelical Christian and has sought to use his expertise in economics to further help his country out of poverty, according to 24-7 Prayer.

Prayer warriors are needed to come alongside the Nepali Christian community, which has called for a “Global Day of Prayer for Nepal” on April 5-6, 2008 to focus on the upcoming constitutional election and lasting peace, reconciliation and healing of the Asian nation. Scheduled for April 10, 2008, Nepal’s general election is the first nationwide ballot since a November 2006 peace accord ended a decade-long insurgency in the Himalayan kingdom by Maoist communist rebels fighting for a republic, Bloomberg reported. Voters will elect an assembly to draw up a new constitution and decide at its first meeting whether to scrap the monarchy after almost 240 years. “There has already violence started in many places,” a Christian leader from Nepal wrote in an e-mail to Window International Network. “People are thinking the election will solve all the problems, but the problems are just beyond (the election).”

‘Global Day of Prayer for Nepal’ focuses on constitutional elections

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Prayer warriors are needed to come alongside the Nepali Christian community, which has called for a “Global Day of Prayer for Nepal” on April 5-6, 2008 to focus on the upcoming constitutional election and lasting peace, reconciliation and healing of the Asian nation.

Scheduled for April 10, 2008, Nepal’s general election is the first nationwide ballot since a November 2006 peace accord ended a decade-long insurgency in the Himalayan kingdom by Maoist communist rebels fighting for a republic, Bloomberg reported. Voters will elect an assembly to draw up a new constitution and decide at its first meeting whether to scrap the monarchy after almost 240 years.

However, violence has been intensifying in recent weeks, leading up to the election, Bloomberg reported. The government must bring to justice the perpetrators of a March 29, 2008 mosque attack in Biratnagar, a city southeast of the capital, Kathmandu, that killed two people, the United Nations said.

“There has already violence started in many places,” a Christian leader from Nepal wrote in an e-mail to Window International Network. “People are thinking the election will solve all the problems, but the problems are just beyond (the election).”

Once the world’s only Hindu kingdom, Nepal was declared a secular state in 2006, Bloomberg reported. More than 80 percent of Nepal’s 29 million people are Hindu, almost 11 percent Buddhist and 4 percent Muslim, according to U.S. government data citing a 2001 census.

In a major answer to prayer by Christian groups, including Window International Network  (WIN) and its Praying Through The Window: Political and Spiritual Leaders in the 10/40 Window, Bhutan will hold its first democratic elections on Monday, March 24, 2008—the latest step in the transformation of the Himalayan nation where Buddhist kings reigned supreme. However, Bhutan is ranked No. 5 in the 2008 Open Doors “World Watch List” of nations that persecute Christians the worst. “We would like to humbly request you all for your prayers,” a Bhutanese Christian wrote in an e-mail received by WIN. “Bhutan is having its first ever general public elections after 100 years of absolute monarchy. … We do still have lot of silent persecutions (of) Christians, and we are badly discriminated by the government and there is no equal right for us.”

WIN PRAYER ALERT

In a major answer to prayer by Christian groups, including Window International Network  (WIN) and its Praying Through The Window: Political and Spiritual Leaders in the 10/40 Window, Bhutan will hold its first democratic elections on Monday, March 24, 2008—the latest step in the transformation of the Himalayan nation where Buddhist kings reigned supreme.

However, Bhutan is ranked No. 5 in the 2008 Open Doors “World Watch List” of nations that persecute Christians the worst.

“We would like to humbly request you all for your prayers,” a Bhutanese Christian wrote in an e-mail received by WIN. “Bhutan is having its first ever general public elections after 100 years of absolute monarchy. … We do still have lot of silent persecutions (of) Christians, and we are badly discriminated by the government and there is no equal right for us.

“Two of our relatives are behind bars for the last 14 months, and we are just praying to the Lord for their early release,” the Bhutanese Christian continued. “They were caught while they were showing The Jesus film to some (in) the neighborhood.”

Until just a few decades ago, the secluded and mountainous country was a medieval agrarian society, with no paved roads, no electricity, no hospitals and no telephones, the Associated Press (AP) reported. Goods were bartered rather than bought. But much has changed in recent years—television, for example, was introduced in 1999, the AP reported.

Now comes the historic parliamentary elections, in which the country’s first elected prime minister should take office a day later.

Under a draft constitution, the king, 27-year-old Jigme Khesar Namgyal Wangchuck, will become head of state, but Parliament will have the power to impeach him by a two-thirds vote, the AP reported.

The Communist Party of Bhutan has threatened to disrupt the elections to Bhutan’s National Assembly or the lower house of Parliament that would formalize the nation’s transformation from an absolute monarchy to parliamentary democracy, Thaindian.com reported.

Mahayana Buddhism is the state religion in Bhutan, where Christians comprise a fraction of 1 percent of the population that ranges between 700,000 and 2.2 million people, the AP reported.

The law provides for freedom of religion. However, the government limited this right in practice by barring non-Buddhist missionaries from entering the country, limiting construction of non-Buddhist religious buildings, and restricting the celebration of some non-Buddhist religious festivals and limiting others, according to International Christian Concern (ICC).

The government also prohibits religious conversion from Buddhism to other religions. Foreign missionaries were not permitted to proselytize, ICC said.

Intercessors are urged to come alongside a pastor and president of Chinese House Church Alliance who recently issued an open letter to the international community revealing sufferings and persecutions he has endured from authorities. Mingxuan strongly appealed for the international community “to pray for China and for the success of (the) 2008 Olympics in China and for the real freedom of religion in China,” he wrote. “We pray to God that those brothers and sisters imprisoned for preaching Jesus Christ will be released soon and that God will make leaders in the Chinese government to treat the believers in a correct way and that God will make China a country full of love, justice, freedom and prosperity.”

President of Chinese House Church Alliance issues open letter to international community

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Intercessors are urged to come alongside a pastor and president of the Chinese House Church Alliance who recently issued an open letter to the international community, revealing sufferings and persecutions he has endured from authorities.

Since his conversion to Christianity in 1986 Pastor Zhang Mingxuan has been arrested, beaten and incarcerated 12 times, Assist News Service (ANS) reported. Most recently, Public Security Bureau (PSB) and state officials forced Mingxuan to close the orphanage he had been running with his two sons.

Mingxuann and the orphans have continued to look for places of residence, but have been refused several times by landlords who have been threatened by officials not to lease to the pastor. Currently, Zhang has been separated from his two sons, who were also forced to move by PSB officials, ANS reported.

The persecution prompted Mingxuan to issue an open letter, which details the many hardships and injustices he has had to endure throughout the years, according to China Aid Association. The pastor also cited numerous accounts of Chinese Christians imprisoned for preaching Jesus Christ, ANS reported.

In his letter, Mingxuan said he had appealed to President Hu Jintao to rectify the wrongs being done by corrupt government officials. However, Mingxuan has received no response.

Mingxuan strongly appealed for the international community “to pray for China and for the success of (the) 2008 Olympics in China and for the real freedom of religion in China,” he wrote. “We pray to God that those brothers and sisters imprisoned for preaching Jesus Christ will be released soon and that God will make leaders in the Chinese government to treat the believers in a correct way and that God will make China a country full of love, justice, freedom and prosperity.”

China is ranked No. 10 in the 2008 Open Doors “World Watch List” of nations that persecute Christians the worst.

Intercessors are needed to pray for Chad as Christian relief workers have warned of “a humanitarian disaster” in the African nation’s civil war. Thousands of civilians fled the capital N’Djamena early Monday, February 4, 2008, after rebel forces said they had pulled back from the city following two days of fighting against government forces. World Vision, which has some 250 staff members in country, said the African nation could turn “from a political crisis to a humanitarian disaster if fighting does not stop soon.” Chad’s civil war pits Sudan-backed Muslim rebels against the pro-French government of President Idriss Deby. Meanwhile, a Polish missionary priest serving in Chad has reported that Muslim rebels are threatening Christians in the African nation. “The rebel leader has said Chad is to be a Muslim country,” said Jedrzej Piasek, a priest who served one year in Chad’s Doba diocese.

Emergency Prayer Alert-Chad

Christians warn of “humanitarian disaster” in African nation’s civil war

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Intercessors are needed to pray for Chad as Christian relief workers have warned of “a humanitarian disaster” in the African nation’s civil war.

Thousands of civilians fled the capital N’Djamena early Monday, February 4, 2008, after rebel forces said they had pulled back from the city following two days of fighting against government forces, BosNewsLife reported.

The clashes, centered on the presidential palace, also forced Christian humanitarian group World Vision to move staff and their families to safe houses and to close its office after it was attacked over the weekend of February 2, BosNewsLife reported.

World Vision, which has some 250 staff members in country, said the African nation could turn “from a political crisis to a humanitarian disaster if fighting does not stop soon.”

Chad’s civil war pits Sudan-backed Muslim rebels against the pro-French government of President Idriss Deby.

Itno declared a “stunning victory” Wednesday, February 5 over rebel forces and said he was back in control, as Red Cross officials put the toll from weekend clashes at more than 160 dead, Agency France Presse reported.

“We have total control not only of the capital but of the country,” said Deby at his first press conference since hundreds of insurgents poured into Ndjamena in a bid to overthrow his regime.

The rebels accuse France of using tanks and helicopters, part of a French contingent based in Chad, to help President Deby beat off their assault on N’Djamena, Reuters reported. France denies its forces were directly involved in combat.

The rebel offensive began from bases in Sudan, in what observers described as “a lightning desert march” to the center of the capital, marking the biggest threat to Deby’s rule since he himself took power in a coup in 1990.

The rebels are being sponsored by Khartoum and Saudi Arabia to effect regime change in Chad and install a pro-Arab Islamist regime that will be loyal to Khartoum and thus resistant to occupation by “infidels,” according to the Jubilee Campaign.

“If these rebels are successful in taking N’Djamena, it will be a major coup for Sudan, Wahhabi Islam and Arabism, with Libya possibly benefiting also,” wrote World Defense Review columnist Walid Phares. “It would be a crushing blow for liberty and security in Chad and the wider region and would doubtless herald an era of unprecedented persecution for the Chadian Church.”

However, rebel leaders, many of them former close allies of the president, say they are fighting for democracy, after Deby changed the constitution in June 2005 to allow unlimited presidential terms, and declared himself the winner of the last poll in 2006, widely viewed as fraudulent, the Voice of America network reported.

“We did not expect things to happen this quickly,” World Vision’s Chad Director Levourne Passiri said in a statement, BosNewsLife reported. “I fear that the entire capital could be destroyed. There is already much human and economic damage. Many civilians have been killed.”

Meanwhile, Chad’s government is currently digging a 3-metre deep trench around the capital to prevent a repeat of the February 4, 2008 attack, when rebels in pickup trucks rolled into N’Djamena and fought two days of heavy battles, Reuters reported.

World Vision said it fears that if a negotiated ceasefire “or a mediated transition of power” are not achieved soon, “this could trigger factional fighting that would displace (more) civilians.”

The organization has worked in Chad since 1985 and says it currently serves some 400,000 people. Community development programs are located in central and southern Chad, and focus on health and nutrition, education, HIV/AIDS prevention, water and sanitation, micro loans to poor entrepreneurs, and agricultural improvements to prevent frequent food shortages.

Meanwhile, a Polish missionary priest serving in Chad has reported that Muslim rebels are threatening Christians in the African nation.

“The rebel leader has said Chad is to be a Muslim country,” said Jedrzej Piasek, a priest who served one year in Chad’s Doba diocese, CWNews.com reported. “He does not want priests and consecrated (religion). The first thing he will do after winning the civil war is expel all missionaries.”

With 200 people groups and 120 languages, Chad is one of the most unreached countries in Africa and presents a challenge to the Gospel, according to Operation World. Additionally, Many Chadian Muslims have been recruited as mercenaries to attack and kill Christians in Nigeria.

Emergency Prayer Alert-Pakistan

Terrorists suicide bombings kill more than 20 people, deepening nation’s security crisis

WIN PRAYER ALERT

Urgent prayer is needed for Pakistan after a suicide bomber blew up a seven-story police headquarters in Lahore on Tuesday, March 11, 2008, killing more than 20 people and injuring more than 200 in one of the boldest attacks yet by suspected Islamic militants against a Pakistani government installation.

A second, apparently synchronized blast moments later in a residential district of the city, killed three people, two of them reported to be children, The Los Angeles Times reported.

The dual attacks underscored the deteriorating security situation faced by the new government now being formed in the wake of February 18, 2008 parliamentary elections that swept opposition parties to power, the newspaper observed.

The explosions also marked the third time in two months that attackers hit government or military targets in Lahore, the country’s cultural capital which until recently had escaped the wave of attacks elsewhere in the country, the Times reported.

The bombings come amid a spate of violence that authorities are blaming on Taliban and Al Qaeda-linked militants, spreading beyond their strongholds along the Afghan border, the Associated Press (AP) reported.

There have been at least seven suicide attacks in the weeks since the elections, which were won by the opposition parties of the late Benazir Bhutto and fellow former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. Bhutto was killed in a suicide attack in Rawalpindi on December 27, 2007.

President Pervez Musharraf condemned the most recent bombings as “savage act” and said the “acts of terrorism cannot deter government’s resolve to fight the scourge with full force,” state media reported.

Musharraf has summoned the new parliament to meet on March 17, 2008, setting up a showdown with his rivals that could potentially further destabilize the nuclear-armed nation, Agency France Presse reported.

Asif Ali Zardari, Bhutto’s widower and political successor, and Sharif have agreed to form a coalition government that is expected to take on Musharraf, who seized power in a coup in 1999, but they must also grapple with the tide of violence engulfing the country, the Pakistan Christian Post reported.

“Terrorists are trying to put pressure on the government-in-making. But I am sure the government-in-making will also have the same resolve to deal with terrorism,” interior ministry spokesman Javed Cheema told the Post.
