Mission Connection Between the Anglican Province of Myanmar and the Diocese of Cascadia
There has been on-going joint mission activity between the Diocese of Cascadia (Washington, Oregon and Alaska) and the Anglican Province of Myanmar for several years. Cascadia has sent missions in the past to the dioceses of Yangon and Pyay in Myanmar, and Myanmar has sent some of their bishops to minister in Cascadia. Unfortunately, this people exchange is currently curtailed due to the civil war in Myanmar.
On a diocesan level, the Dioceses of Cascadia, Yangon, and Pyay are companion dioceses. Cascadia contributed funds to assist in the building of the new Pyay diocesan office building. A delegation from Cascadia planned on attending the dedication of the diocesan office building in December 2025 but were asked by the officials in Pyay not to attend due to the civil war. We look forward to the day when the civil war in Myanmar is over and the country opens again to in person mission activity. We have many friends in Myanmar.
