In March 2008, Pastor KhamLa Namheng and seven Khmu pastors from Udom Sai province in Laos were arrested when entering Thailand to attend meetings. VOM contacts report, “They went the wrong way trying to avoid a police check point. When the police later searched their bags they found two Bibles and some letters. The police claimed the letters were written against the village authority reporting persecution.”
Please send a letter of encouragement and let KhamLa know that you are praying for him and other persecuted believers in Laos. Let your friends know about suffering Christians in Laos and encourage them to pray and write as well.
Your letters make a difference, sometimes resulting in shorter prison sentences. Write to KhamLa today and let him know you are praying for him. To write a letter of encouragement go to http://www.prisoneralert.com/
