Her Dad’s Killer Is On the Loose

Her Husband's Killers Are Hunting Her

Her Dad’s Killer Is On the Loose

“Flor” still misses her father every day.

Her father, a pastor, was killed when she was just a preschooler, but his death left a huge hole in her world. Then the news came that his killer had been released from prison and was now hunting her family.

Flor’s father pastored in a rural area of Colombia. When his killers delivered his body to the door of their home, VOM immediately helped Flor and her mom relocate to a safe house. VOM supported them as Flor and her mom restarted their lives, helping them begin an agricultural business.

Eight years later, her father’s killer was released from prison. Neighbors warned the family that he was asking about them. Again, VOM immediately relocated the family to a safe place.

Support Safe Houses for Persecuted Christians

Just last week, Flor called her VOM contact and asked to be picked up from school. She was struggling with grief and fear and needed some encouragement.

Your gift to the Families of Martyrs Fund supports believers like Flor and her family. This fund allows VOM to quickly relocate a family when there is immediate danger, and it also helps provide for them in the long-term with jobs, housing and education for children.

You can be a part of this crucial work supporting persecuted believers like Flor with a gift to the Families of Martyrs Fund.
