Witnessing God’s Marvellous
Work in Vietnam
WHEN ASKED by church members
how my mission trip to

with two “unofficial” church leaders. One
of Salvation” was well received. It ended
by noon. Then lunch was served. At 1.30
p.m., Mark began his first part of the session
on “Biblical Separation.” Though the
materials were heavy at times, the people
enjoyed them thoroughly. There were some
good questions asked. Mark ended his session
by 4.00 p.m.

Though it is still a
“closed” country,

hunger in the hearts of the
people.”
The noise of the traffic made
teaching difficult. However,
by the grace of God, Mark and
I were able to instruct His people.
As usual we began at 8.30
in the morning. I taught them the Book of
Esther, with special emphasis on the Sovereignty
of God. And Mark continued his
second part of the session on “Biblical

On the third day, we met with another
