In the Buddhist nation of Bhutan, few Christians are reaching out to the Bhutanese majority with the gospel. However, one pastor who spent time in prison for his Christian work is committed to sharing Jesus. “We want to reach out to our people and to share the love of Christ, how powerful it is in our life,” the pastor said. “We want to reach out to the Buddhist background family, to disciple them.” In 2014, Pastor Tandin was charged with receiving funds to spread Christianity and sentenced to nearly four years in prison. His sentenced was later reduced and he spent 49 days in jail before posting bail. The pastor said he was especially encouraged to read all the prayers posted for him on iCommitToPray.com during his imprisonment.
