Laos Couple Rejected by Parents, Relatives and Daughter

10/2/2025   (VOM)

A Laotian couple has been rejected by their family after placing their faith in Christ. Yeaun and his wife, Vanhdee, became followers of Jesus Christ when their 3-year-old daughter was healed after a Christian coworker recommended taking her to a church for prayer. They were afraid to follow his advice, but as they listened to an audio Bible the man had given them, they became convinced they should follow Christ. After they placed their trust in Christ, they attended a nearby church and listened to the Bible every day. Yeaun’s parents, uncle and oldest daughter became angry with them. The daughter told them she could not respect them as parents if they follow a foreign religion. Yeaun’s uncle kicked them off the family property, and his mother took back land she had given them. “If you want to keep your faith, then don’t call me mother,” she said. The couple continue to attend church and raise their other daughters to know Jesus.

Please pray…

• Pray that the Lord will encourage Yeaun and Vanhdee at this difficult time.

• Pray that the Lord will help them to raise their other daughters to know and love Jesus.

• Pray that the Lord will provide for all their material and spiritual needs.
