Voice of the Martyrs


We take it for granted that we are free to meet as Christians and speak to others about Jesus. Many Christian people do not have these freedoms and are persecuted for being Christian. The organisation, Voice of the Martyrs, brings their needs to the attention of Christians all around the world.

You might to use this map to pray for Christians in countries where there are restrictions placed on Christians or where there is outright hostility.

This is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen! I've been living in Egypt for the past 3 years- the government contributes troops to help PROTECT Christian churches in times of religious unrest. A little over 10% of the Egyptian population IS Coptic Christian! The government certainly doesn't condone any sort of harassment of Christians- what utter rubbish. WHERE did you get your info for this?

I imagine you are commenting on the fact that in the map Egypt is described as a 'restricted nation'. Voice of the Martyrs publish the map and have further information about Egypt at http://www.persecution.com.au/countries and then follow the link to Egypt. I hope this helps. Let me know if they have got their information wrong.

Praying for missionaries to be there around the world.
I see that there is the need for the lost souls.
that no one person is risking everything to stop preaching.to endure persecution, famine and much more...

God bless all the missionaries it has around the world
