VIETNAM
"Once upon a time, in a deep and breathless moment, a blessed girl named Divine went to Vietnam, and later conquering that land for Jesus." -Kirsten James
Vietnam measured its geographic area for a total of 329,560 sq. km, with the land measurement of 325,360 sq. km. and with the water measurement of 4,200 sq. km. its measurement is slightly larger than New Mexico. It is long, narrow country occupying the entire eastern and southern coastline of Indochina.
In 1945, the communist republic declared in North Vietnam, but still there was a continuous conflict between 1941 and 1985 under the Japanese and then against the French, South Vietnam, USA and all surrounding lands. North Vietnam finally conquered the South in 1975. All the religious movements, including Buddhism, is controlled by the actual government policy. And persecution of Christians still continues to be harsh.
Vietnam is one of the few communist nations in the 21st Century, and it faces new challenges. The control of all freedom continues, but at the same time social ills are on the rise. Drug addiction, Aids, prostitution and exploitation of children are all too common. I encourage everyone to let's bless Vietnam by praying for them. Let's pray that the darkness (ideological and moral) over this nation might be banished by the light of the Gospel.
