Xieng Khuan near Vientiane, Laos |
This week's countries (3/17 - 3/23) are Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. While the paragraph below provides some recent information, check out their WCC page for additional prayer resources.
We pray for the release of fourteen Catholic bloggers and activists who were recently convicted for their connection to the non-violent, pro-democracy Viet Tan group in Vietnam. We pray for an end to recent land grabbing, for government reform and for free and fair elections this July in Cambodia. We pray for an end to ongoing government persecution of the Hmong ethnic group in Laos.God's peace,
Dustin
