A 49-year-old woman was assaulted by local authorities after she refused to give up her Christian faith.
On 5 May, authorities visited Dinh and told her they would help her during the coronavirus pandemic if she would sign a statement giving up her faith. When she refused to sign the document, an official grabbed a kettle of boiling water from her kitchen and poured it all over Dinh’s legs.
Dinh was taken to the hospital, but since her family is very poor, they could not pay for her treatment. She had not been issued health insurance because she is a Christian.
VOM provided help. “I am so happy and thankful to God for your heart of love,” Dinh wrote. “Please remember me in your prayers.”

- Thank the Lord for the help and treatment she has received and pray she will be fully restored to health.
- Pray her strong witness may be used by the Lord to embolden the faith of others and soften the hearts of the local authorities.
