Voice of the Martyrs Canada is reporting today in their Prayer Newsletter that Pastor Nguyen Hong Quang was released yesterday from prison! Read the story now.

World Net Daily has posted a short article about some persecution that has happened today. Read the article titled 'Hindu radicals' ransack Christian church :Indians enter Assembly of God building, desecrate Bible .

The other day I was thinking about the many prisoners who are currently in jail for their faith in Christ Jesus, and the thought came to me what does it take to get Christians really motivated to write people they do not know personally in prison.

Pray the largest prayers. You cannot think a prayer so large that God in answering it, will not wish you had made it larger. Pray not for crutches but wings. --Phillips Brooks, 19th century pastor and author

Today we are so excited to announce to you that we are launching the Voice of the Martyrs Blogosphere Program. This is the only program using the blogosphere that focuses on the persecuted church because we know that bloggers are some of the best voices for the persecuted church.

Not only is Jesus coming soon, but we here at VOM persecution blog are working on an exciting new program that will enable all of you in the blogosphere to join us in educating others about the persecuted church. So stay tuned because details will be coming soon!

If you're like me and continually follow the news of the persecuted church then you can't miss the mention of Eritrea all over the news. A few stories today caught my eye and unfortunately I'm very saddened by all of it. The headlines will speak for themselves, and so I will just post the links so you can read them.

Every once in awhile I come upon a news article that is just too good to pass up. This morning is one of those days and so I just had to share it with you.

Christian News Today has a great article on their website that you must read. The title of the article is China: Defiantly Intensifying Persecution . Please take a few minutes and click on over and read it.

The following story isn't a story about persecution, but it is about a brother who died apparently of an accident.
