At that time, Wednesday 25 December 1940. A small village without sound silent Songkhon gripped. That day be Christmas day only there is no celebration of the mass in the Church. There are no sacraments whatsoever, and no Christmas drama birth of Jesus as the previous years. It happens because the local police has frequently come up to a community of sisters to ask them to stop everything that smells of teaching Christianity. No other religion in the land of Thailand in addition to Buddhism. But the sisters routinely teach children learn religion ignore and even more eager to testify. Then the day of the historic events that took place.

The village saw that event also participated at the accompanying their steps accompanied by the use of prayers and chanting religious songs that putus-putusnya. The police come for having read the letter, also took part in the walk but trailing behind massa.
