This Man has Tortured and Imprisoned at least 30,000 Christians

Kim Jong Un, the current leader of North Korea, is guilty of the imprisonment and torture of Christians and their entire families.

As Christians we have a choice. We can remain silent, say an occasional prayer, or stand up against such atrocities.

The Voice of the Martyrs invites you to take part in a new ministry campaign. Sign a letter to Kim Jong Un, and let him know that we are committed to standing with our Christian brothers and sisters who are suffering in North Korea’s notorious concentration camps.

Nigeria: 2 Kidnapped Girls Escape

VOM is providing assistance to two sisters who recently escaped captivity from Boko Haram.
Two sisters, Kamka, 19, and Naya, 16, were sleeping when radical Muslims invaded their home. The armed terrorists entered their brother's room and shot him in the hand before demanding to know where the girls' father was. When they realized the two sisters were not married and their father was not home, they took the girls by force.

The Boko Haram terrorist group has declared war on Christians in Nigeria, frequently attacking Christian villages, burning Christians' houses and murdering indiscriminately. They also kidnap teenage girls and force them to convert and marry Boko Haram members.

After forcing Kamka and Naya to walk through the woods at gunpoint, the terrorists immediately put them to work fetching water and cooking. A few days later, the girls were told that both of them were to be married. “We're too young,” Naya protested. But the leader then showed them his daughter, a girl of 7 or 8, who was already married.


“If we refused to cooperate, we would be killed,” Naya told a VOM worker. “The man whom I was forced to marry took me. He picked up his gun and a knife and threatened to murder me if I continued to resist.”

The sisters cried and prayed together, unsure of what would become of them. But after two weeks, a Muslim woman took pity on them. While fetching water with the girls, she showed them an escape route and told them to run away.

The girls escaped under cover of darkness. They knocked on the door of the first house they came to, praying the owner would be friendly. Although he was Muslim, the man took pity on the girls. He allowed them to bathe and eat, and then had his sister take them to a nearby Christian village.

The girls were traumatized by their experience but are now doing reasonably well. Since it is unsafe for them to return to their home, VOM is providing care for them at a safe house through one of our project partners.


“I thank God that He has saved us from the hands of these bad people,” Naya said. “Everything is now behind me and I'm not afraid anymore. I only want to look forward now.”

And Kamka is also thankful for God's protection. “I am very grateful that many Christians pray for me,” she said. “Despite what I've been through, I still have faith in God.”

3 Video Offerings from Voice of the Martyrs

I am a Hebrew Roots person. Even though I may disagree with some aspects of V.O.M.'s theology, one thing you don't do is take away people's hope! V.O.M. does an amazing and worthwhile work helping others. And yes, WORKS do matter! - : ) Tiger

Imagine Joel Osteen's MegaChurch in your mind, then watch this video.  Where do you think Yehovah-Yeshua is?


The physical needs of the Persecuted are a necessary part of V.O.M.'s work.


The "hope" keeps them going!
