Christian Aid launches Myanmar Earthquake Appeal |

If you can, please donate to the Myanmar Earthquake Appeal.

Christian Aid has launched an urgent fundraising appeal in the wake of the 7.7 magnitude earthquake which struck central Myanmar today (March 28). The charity’s partners are reporting people have been severely impacted by the disaster, including many who saw their homes destroyed or badly damaged. Access to vital services such as water, power and basic foods have been critically disrupted. Immediate emergency support is now urgently needed, including food parcels, water kits, shelters, and cash for essential supplies. And – with the generous help of its supporters – Christian Aid is mobilising to assist its partners and quake-affected communities with essential aid and recovery over the coming weeks and months.

Lord, send us the gift of peace
Watch over the people of
who have been forced to flee their homes
and face violence and fear.
Lord, send us the gift of peace
Lead them to a place of safety,
comfort those who grieve
and bring healing to those in pain.
Lord, send us the gift of peace.
Convert the hearts of those
who commit violence and wage war.
Turn them away from persecution towards peace.
Lord, send us the gift of peace.
Turn hatred to understanding,
and anger to compassion.
Through your love, transform horror into hope.
Lord, send us the gift of peace.
And fill us all with your Spirit
so that with one voice, throughout the world,
we may cry
