Christian Widow Abandoned by Family

Mrs. Thai, a Christian widow in a Khmu tribal village in Laos, was persecuted by her own family and kicked out of her house because of her faith. She lived alone, and none of her family cared for her. She passed away on December 27, 2023. Her family did not want to take responsibility for her funeral. Members of the local body of Christ came to bury her, but the village headman would not permit them to bring it into the village cemetery, concerned that it would displease the ancestor spirits. Eventually, seven women of the church carried Mrs. Thai’s body far from the village and buried it themselves. Pray that the loving care of the body of Christ in Mrs. Thai’s case will have a deep impact on her family and the whole village so that they will be drawn to Christ.
