Mae Swe – the Burma Project

Sunday morning meditation

This morning I am headed off to worship in a foreign language. In Allentown, PA, there are a group of refugees from Burma who are all of the Chin ethnic group. I met with their Elder, Timothy Van Nei and his brothers back in the Fall and heard part of their story. Today I’ll experience Sunday morning meditation

Mae Swe

After a long, bitter winter and a busy, busy spring, I am at last able to return to that project that has been on the burner for awhile now:  the Mae Sway Project. I am in the midst of gathering the personal stories and adventures of some of the Burmese refugees that have resettled in Mae Swe
