Nha Be District – People Spreading Out
Points of Prayer
- Pray that the Lord of the Harvest would send out laborers into the harvest field of Nha Be District and reach the more than 100,000 people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
- Less densely populated than many areas, this district contains several factories and workers for them as well as new residential developments and schools – pray for new churches to be started.
- Pray for the people trapped by the spiritual strongholds represented by Chùa Pháp Võ among other spiritual sites in the district.
One of the outer districts of the city to the south and next to District 7, many might consider this one of the more rural districts.
Almost half of this district follows alongside the Soai Rap River direct from the East Sea of Vietnam that turns into the Saigon River. The northernmost area of Nha Be District is developed and with full streets, sidewalks, and curbs. The number of people living in this area is spread out compared to the urban center, but less settled with coffee shops, markets and apartments found just a district away in the northern section. The farther south is as if you were in the countryside with sparce shopping and living areas.
In the near future this district will continue to develop with ports for goods to flow in and out as an economic hub. Nha Be District is the home of many pagodas and memorial houses (fallen soldiers from the area) where worship and prayers are made to idols and the dead. This district is in need of our prayers as development continues to accelerate and darkness will continue to expand and abound.
And He said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”
Luke 10:2
