Pray for Successful Bible Balloon Launches

In the late hours of Oct. 23, the staff of a VOM partner organization gathered to launch Bibles into North Korea via balloon. The launch party prepared packages containing lightweight Korean New Testaments, attached them to hydrogen-filled balloons, and released a total of 3,600 into the air. After the overnight launch, the group was just 675 short of their goal of sending 48,000 into a country where the Bible is forbidden. As winter approaches, fewer days will provide weather conditions suitable for balloon launches.

We need your videos!

Our theme for SC14 on Good Friday will be The Cross and Everday Life.  How does the cross affect the everyday moments we experience?

We’re looking for those everyday moments and we need your help!  Would you grab your smartphone (or your video camera) and capture some of those moments for us?  We’re not looking for anything professional, just you and your phone will do!

You can email your video(s) to us or you can upload them right on our video site.  Go to ShareYourVideo.net for more information.

Amanda used her phone and sent us a few moments from her day.  We used them to make this quick video.

See how easy it is?  Anyone can do it!

Pray for Believers Blamed for Villagers' Deaths

Pray for Believers Blamed for Villagers' Deaths

“Those Christians have to renounce their faith! Otherwise, more people will die,” was what a witch doctor told a remote community in Laos. In March 2013 two evangelists brought the Gospel message to three Hmong and Khmu villages located nearly three hours from modern transportation. As a result, 178 people received Christ and 18 were baptized. Less than a month later, three men died in a series of unrelated deaths. One was given the wrong medicine, one died in his sleep, and the third was accidentally electrocuted while trying to run a cable line. The shaken community consulted with a witch doctor who concluded that the strange new religion brought to the village had angered their ancestors. He said the Christians should renounce their faith or leave the village or more people would die. The community leader told the believers to renounce their faith. So far, all of them remain committed, but they may soon be forced out of the village.
