As you know Voice of the Martyrs has a weekly prayer alert that they send out to all of those who have signed up for it. I highly recommend that you do, especially if you love the church and prayer.

I want to thank those of you who have written to the prisoners so far. Yesterday we started around 286 on the Prisoner Alert page and now the number is 325! That's very good and encouraging, and I know these precious sisters will be encouraged too.

If you heard the interview that Todd did with Janet then you know how easy and how important it is to write prisoners because it really works!

Listen today to Janet Parshall's America, in her first hour,(11 A.M. PT & 2:15 P.M. ET) as she speaks to The Voice of the Martyrs Director of News Services, Todd Nettleton!

Twenty-five years ago I became a Christian while I lived in a non-Christian environment. And it was a very hard situation because my conversion was pretty radical. Overnight I knew God loved me, I fell in love with reading the bible and my mother opposed everything new that happened to me. And when I found out I needed to be baptized I was forbidden to be because my mother told me I had been baptized as a Catholic when I was a baby. I was devastated because I was a Christian and yet here I was banned from following through on that outward commitment so others would know that I had become a new creature in Him.

I have something exciting to share with you today, it's a video of Voice of the Martyrs very own Todd Nettleton giving YOU a persecution update, and it's great news!

This is a very interesting testimony that I think you may be interested in reading. Check it out here.

The prayers of the faithful availeth much. Today I am extremely excited and happy to announce that one of the persecuted prisoners we have been praying for and writing letters on his behalf through VOM's Prisoner Alert, has been released after spending two years in a labor camp.
