New Christian Rejected by Family

A recent convert has faced backlash from her family since becoming a Christian. Vanh came to faith in Christ in January after local Christians invited her to Christmas activities. When her husband and adult children found out, they forbade her from returning to church, saying they would cut off all support for her if she did. After the next Sunday service, one of her sons angrily smashed her dishes, saying it might be her who gets smashed next time. Her children took her phone so that she would not be able to listen to Bible texts and Christian teaching, and the next day, her husband prepared divorce papers. “I have hope, and I believe only God can help me,” Vanh said when she came to faith in Christ. Pray that she will hold fast to her hope in Christ as she experiences rejection from her family, and pray that the body of Christ will become for her a loving refuge.
