Vietnam, officially known as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, has an estimated population of 89.7 million people with 1.5% of them being Christian. The primary religion is Buddhist, but has a large population who claim membership in the Roman Catholic Church. The country is considered to be a communist nation. Vietnam is currently on the top 30 most persecuted countries in the world.
LAM's work is primarily in the northern part of Vietnam among the minor ethnic groups of the Tia and Tia Dam people. Our work had opened up in the past few years due to strong relationship building with government officials in the area we work.
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for continual partnership with government leaders.
- Pray for support for evangelism.
- Pray for the minor groups to have more chances to hear the Gospel.
