Our Bible correspondence course students are responding now in large numbers asking if we are going to aid Myanmar and telling us of their personal losses of family and property and confirm the things we are hearing on the News Networks.  Perhaps as many as 100,000 dead, thousands more missing and fear of 1.5 million dying as a result of disease and starvation.

Non-Governmental humanitarian organizations are freely distributing aid and assisting even though Governments have been virtually locked out until now.  The Military Junta finally cracked open slightly the doors to foreign government aid and the French and US have launched large scale efforts to send in food.
