Pray for Two Pastors Detained for Three Months Without Trial

[271] prayers in [22] nations have been posted for Two Detained Pastors.

Pastors Dom Dawng Nawng Latt, 65, and La Jaw Gam Hseng, 35, were arrested on December 24, 2016, after helping a couple that had complained to military officials about the destruction of their house. The officials released the couple but detained the pastors, claiming they had helped local journalists cover the bombing of a church in November. They have been charged with unlawful association with an armed ethnic group as well as recruiting and spying for an armed ethnic group, all charges local Christian leaders deny. The pastors’ case has not gone to trial, despite a law guaranteeing a hearing within 28 days of arrest. If convicted, they could face up to five years in prison. Please pray for the pastors’ release and that the truth of their case will be revealed in court.
