Points:

*Pray for house church leaders who are singled out as targets of persecution to persevere with grace.

*Pray for Lao seekers to toss aside the social pressure to practice Buddhism and place their hope in the one true God.

*Pray for believers to unashamedly proclaim the Gospel to their neighbors despite close government monitoring.
