Vietnam: Raid on Full Gospel Church
On August 23, 2009 a house church in Vietnam was raided by authorities as they were worshipping. This was not the first time. Local officials told the house church that they could not meet for religious meetings since they did not have official permission. The video has English subtitles so that you can understand what was being said during the raid.

Pray for Vietnam
We can thank the Lord for the tremendous witnessing efforts and steadfast faith demonstrated by the persecuted Christians of Vietnam. May they not be intimidated by governmental stipulations but rather encouraged to stand firm on the promises of God – relying on Him for the wisdom, diplomacy and favour required to deal appropriately with the authorities. Pray for radical changes to take place in the hearts of the country’s leaders, especially those who are responsible for implementing and administering Vietnam's laws, so that the work of the Gospel will continue to thrive.
