There are a number of Lahu Christian churches, some in each country where the Lahu live. The Lahu are an ethnic group that originated in Tibet and migrated into the Yunnan province of China, Myanmar, northern Thailand and Laos. Missionaries among the Lahu developed a Romanized phonetic alphabet for the Lahu in the beginning of the 19th century that was reformed by the Chinese government in 1957.

“Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;

Is like to that above.”
