Family Evicted, Children Killed in Rockslide
Duy and Sua are a minority couple in Vietnam. When Sua decided to place her trust in Christ in 2016, her marriage nearly collapsed because Duy didn’t want his wife to follow this “foreign faith.” God miraculously intervened, however, and Duy became not just a believer but a committed evangelist. His family kicked them out, and their village would not let them have good land for building, so they built a house at the foot of a hill outside town. On August 5, 2023, a rockslide destroyed part of their house, killing their 2-year-old and 2-month-old daughters and injuring Sua and their 6-year-old daughter. Family members and government relief services have refused to help them unless they recant their faith. Duy and Sua have struggled and are still deeply in grief, but they continue to serve their local church.
