Yen Chau counts 395 households with 1,329 people who follow different religions, including Protestantism, Catholicism, and Buddhism. Their religious activities remain stable and in line with the law. The relations between authorities and religious organisations have also become more open, reliable, and cohesive, with no complex cases that could affect security and order found so far.

However, due to their economic difficulties and limited awareness, a number of local residents, particularly those in remote and border areas, would be lured and incited by individuals with ill intentions to join illegal religious activities. Additionally, some self-proclaimed and unregistered religious groups are operating in communes such as Muong Lum, Chieng Hac, Chieng Tuong, and Chieng On, which pose potential risks to security and order.

To prevent the acts that abuse belief and religion to conduct superstitious activities, the district has stepped up the dissemination of the Party's guidelines, and the State's policies and laws on belief and religion. It has popularised the Law on Belief and Religion in hamlets and communes that are home to ethnic minority groups, and facilitated their religious practices in accordance with regulations. Yen Chau has maintained the good relations with religious dignitaries and those in charge of religious affairs in the locality.

Furthermore, the district has resolutely struggled against and strictly handled religious activities that violate the law, and individuals who take advantage of religions to sabotage the administration, harm security and order, and undermine the great national unity bloc.

With the district's attention, the local religious community has abided by legal regulations in religious activities. They have worked together with people from all walks of life in the district to build and strengthen the great unity bloc, and promote cultural life in residential areas, contributing to spurring socio-economic development, and maintaining political security, and social order and safety in the locality./.
