In the past few days it seems that there have been sustained attack on those seeking to bring the gospel to the Shan-Tai.

One valued worker in Thailand has had to go home, at least temporarily because of illness. In China, another key Shan-Tai worker had to be airlifted out after having been bitten by a Rabid dog. In Burma, a Shan evangelist who was visiting home after being away in Thailand for ten years was found dead. He had been a very effective worker and leaves a wife and two children.
