Below is a testimony sent to The Voice of the Martyrs from a believer in Myanmar (Burma). It is the account of a 65-year-old man from an devout Buddhist village who came to know Christ:

Today I thought that I would give you some homework, that way in case you were bored you would have one good thing that you can do today to make a difference for a persecuted prisoner. Please take the time to visit Prisoner Alert and write our brother a letter of encouragement. - And I thank you in advance.

I am very happy to share with you today that one of the prisoners of the faith has now been released. I would ask that you continue to pray for this dear saint because he is faithful and still being threatened.
