Persecution continues in Vietnam
Despite
some good news from Vietnam the persecution of Christians in the
central highlands continues, according to cooperation partners of
Friends of the Martyred Churches. During the last few months a number
of churches have, again, been closed down and several pastors have
been arrested. Despite international protests the authorities continue
to harass people, in particular the hmong-tribe. This tribe sided
largely with the USA in the Vietnam war and has always taken an independent
stand against the authorities in Hanoi. At the same time there is
a strong revival within the tribe. This has caused the authorities
to draw up a strategy on how to root out Christianity in the area.
Our sisters and brothers in Vietnam sincerely ask for our continued
prayers.
Please pray for the Christians in Vietnam.
