Safe houses for persecuted Christian in immediate danger

 The Voice of the Martyrs
Safe Houses for
Persecuted Christians
in Immediate Danger
In Colombia...
FARC guerrillas had already killed one of the pastor's sons. They said they'd kill each one of his children if he didn't leave the village.
In North Africa...
When Musa's coworkers and neighbors learned that he had become a Christian, he was fired from his job and his neighbors threatened to throw him out of the building unless he returned to Islam.
In Somalia...
Radical Al-Shabaab militants literally hunt down and kill Christians to make Somalia a “pure” Muslim country.
Where will these Christians go when persecution forces them from their homes?
In the past 12 months, The Voice of the Martyrs has provided “safe houses” for persecuted Christians in more than 15 countries. These safe houses include a place of refuge for persecuted Christians in immediate danger. They must hide from families, extremists or government authorities, angry because they have turned to Christ or because they are leading others to him. While in the safe house, they receive pastoral care and comfort until they can either return or relocate to another area to continue their ministry.
Your gifts to VOM's safe house ministry provide job training, ministry tools, care and schooling for their children while strengthening and deepening their faith.
Thank you for standing with persecuted members of Christ's Body by providing for this very practical need.
For those in bonds,
VOM
