EFM’s relationship with The Way Foundation in Thailand is valuable in continuing the Great Commission work in Southeast Asia. The Way Foundation’s vision is to help establish a growing ministry that will continue to share the gospel, make disciples, plant churches and be connected to churches around the world, including those in America, for many generations to come.
Shared by Law Lu, we are pleased to share this story of how God is moving among the Lahu people through steadfast faith.
The Story of Law Lu
Law Lu is a Lahu man from Laos who joined our PET training program. His journey has been very challenging for both him and his family. He is the first man in his village to believe in Jesus, and also the very first Christian in his community.
When he began to share the gospel with his neighbors, the village chief found out and forced him to leave the village. As a result, Law Lu and his family had to live in another village for more than ten years. During that time, even though he faced rejection, he never stopped sharing the good news of Jesus wherever he went. He also had the opportunity to join our training program, which further encouraged him in his faith.
At the end of last year, Law Lu heard that his home village had become more open toward Christianity. Some people had accepted Christ, and the authorities had given permission to establish a church in the village. With this news, Law Lu decided to return to his original village.
However, when he returned, he was not free to live as he wished. He first had to wait for the approval of the village chief before being accepted again as a member of the community. Recently, he finally received that approval. Law Lu wanted to join the village church, but the chief did not allow him. Instead, he was only permitted to worship and pray within his own home.
Because of this, Law Lu began to open his home for worship gatherings and invited people from the village to join. At present, about three families come regularly to worship together with him.

Prayer Requests
For Law Lu and his family: Please pray for God’s protection and care over them in this difficult situation.
For the house church and evangelism: Please pray for the growth of this new house church and for the gospel to spread throughout the village, which has over 100 households but very few Christians.
