Sherif's sister, Emy, emphasized the importance of speaking up about the increasing erosion of the country's basic human rights. She stated, "If you give up your right(s) today, you won't find [them] tomorrow."

She also organizes seminars and fellowship times for persecuted Christians. Having come through devastating personal loss herself, she empathetically cares for other persecuted Christians. They, in turn, extend to her God’s comfort, encouragement and hope.

Thongkham went to Bible school and a year later, Boun’s daughter Sengdara followed him there. The two married in 2008.

Besides teaching in the church’s new training program, Sengdara has taken on many of the other roles Thongkham once held, such as visiting churches to assess their needs, and helping them find practical resources.

To further Thongkham’s newfound faith, his uncle sent him to the home of “Uncle Boun,” an imprisoned man whose family continued to share the Gospel. Boun’s wife showed Thongkham the JESUS film and through further discipleship, his life was transformed.

Thongkham grew up in Laos worshipping ancestral and nature spirits, but after his father’s death he moved in with his Christian uncle. He reeled against this uncle’s faith, but at 18, a serious illness changed everything.

After months of stomach pain and vomiting blood, Thongkham prayed for God to heal him, promising to follow Jesus if He did. That night, the pain and bleeding stopped and never returned.
