Meetings Encourage Khmu Christians

[106] prayers in [4] nations have been posted for Khmu Christians.

In early 2024, 50 persecuted Khmu Christians from several villages participated in a gathering at a church where they could share their struggles and stories with other persecuted Christians; support and pray for one another; and receive encouragement from God’s Word. Front-line workers chose the location used because Christians at the host church have faced intense persecution in recent years, including the destruction of crops and forced payments for spirit sacrifices in the village. Many participants expressed their thankfulness for the gathering, which encouraged and refreshed them.

  • Father, the power of Yourself at work in the lives of Your children is great! May it continue to strengthen, uphold and deliver these believers as they navigate life with You amongst those who don't know the truth and persecute them for their faith. It's a tough road to walk, but to deny You is far worse. May they experience Your goodness. Amen.

  • 1 John 1:7 says "But if we walk in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the BLOOD of JESUS cleanseth us from all sin." so fellowship with other CHRISTIANS is critical for growth, courage and learning. Even if they live in different areas, they can together in house meetings and encourage each other. They must have BIBLES!!!
