At Church and on the Road with Pastor Khen in Laos

These photos arrived on October 7, 2026, in Lori Locklear’s WhatsApp thread from Pastor Khen’s ministry in Laos.

In a church with three bamboo crosses, Pastor Khen speaks into a microphone at a wooden pulpit, beside a slide in Lao. He also poses and shakes hands with people holding a red gift basket of snacks.

Four men hold green coconuts with straws in a dirt yard beside village houses. A rider on a red motorbike climbs a dirt path beside a stream. On a dirt road beside a cut hillside, Pastor Khen and his wife, Mala, take a selfie in black helmets, and Mala makes a peace sign.

Video clips sent the same day became one YouTube video: “A Church in Laos and a Dirt Road.”
