Summary

SummaryI am Xuan, born into the Hmong tribe of central Vietnam, where animistic beliefs ruled our lives. In 2009, when my child and I fell gravely ill, I heard that faith in God brings healing. We prayed—and He healed us both 🙌. Yet my conversion brought fierce opposition: my community leaders confiscated our cattle, authorities threatened our support, and I was told to abandon my faith. My husband stood by me, so they allowed me to remain Christian—on one condition: never to evangelize. But I could not stay silent. Under cover of night, I walk from house to house, sharing the gospel in secret 🌙✝️. Now, more neighbors follow Jesus, and I trust that even if they kill me, I die for the Lord. Prayer is my strength—it heals, saves, and empowers me to stand firm in faith 🙏.

When Xuan* converted away from tribal, animistic beliefs, her Hmong community told her she could be a Christian, as long as she didn’t evangelise. But Xuan visits houses in the dead of night to tell people about Jesus…
