"Sin must be called by its name. Communism is one of the most dangerous sins in the world today." Richard Wurmbrand, founder of Voice of the Martyrs

Your Support in Action: India

A school bag may seem ordinary. For Deepika, an orphan who lacked school supplies, it meant courage to go back to school: "When I received this colourful bag, school kit and water bottle, it gave me courage to go to school."

Through Christmas Care projects in some villages in India, 375 children received practical gifts. Many received their first illustrated Bible. In Andhra Pradesh, local pastors gathered 125 children from 110 families for Bible stories, songs and prayer, and some children kept coming to church after Christmas, including a girl from a Hindu family who brought her older brother along.

That is the lasting impact of your giving. Read the full story: https://vom.com.au/stories/christmas-care-india-2025/

Pray for Christian children in India facing discrimination and poverty.

Why have Christians been targeted under communist regimes?

Throughout history, Christians living under certain communist governments have faced restrictions, imprisonment and persecution for their faith.

But what lies behind this hostility towards Christianity?

In 'Karl Marx and the Satanic Roots of Communism', Richard Wurmbrand, founder of Voice of the Martyrs, examines the writings and ideas associated with Karl Marx, offering his perspective on the spiritual and ideological roots of communism.

Drawing from his understanding of Marxism and his own experience of persecution under communist rule, Wurmbrand challenges readers to consider a question that remains relevant today: can communism and Christianity coexist?

For young Christians in Türkiye, following Jesus can sometimes mean standing alone. Some face bullying, exclusion, and pressure at school because of their faith.

Christian camps, mentoring, and other gatherings give them opportunities to worship, learn Scripture, build friendships, and be reminded that they are not alone. These VOM-supported camps also help young believers grow in their relationship with God and support first-generation Christian families.

Please pray that these ministries will continue to disciple, encourage, and strengthen the next generation of believers in Türkiye.

NIGERIA: Ransom Demand for Pastor’s Wife and Daughter

On 9 November 2025, Mercy Simon and her toddler daughter, Talita, were abducted by suspected Boko Haram militants. According to her husband, Pastor Simon, Mercy was singled out because of her Christian faith.

After months without news, the abductors demanded a ransom the family cannot afford.

Pastor Simon is now caring for their three other children alone, while fearing for Talita's health.

Mercy and Talita are reportedly among more than 70 Christians being held captive.

Read the full story and please pray for the protection, strength and safe release of Mercy and Talita. Ask the Lord to comfort Pastor Simon and his children, and move authorities to act for those still in captivity.

What happens when following Jesus is treated as a threat to the state?

In China, unregistered churches face raids, and leaders can face criminal charges for ordinary Christian ministry. In North Korea, Christians risk imprisonment or labour camps – and their families may also be punished.

These are the realities facing our brothers and sisters under communist rule.

Yet Christ continues to build His church. Believers continue to follow Him, even when obedience comes at an enormous cost.

This November, our magazine focuses on communism in China and North Korea: the pressure Christians face, their perseverance and the hope no government can take away.

Please pray for their courage, access to Scripture and strength to remain faithful to Christ.

CHINA: Health Decline of Pastor Wang Yi

Sources inside China report that the founder of Early Rain Covenant Church may be suffering from advanced liver cancer. However, his diagnosis remains unverified due to restricted family access and limited information about his condition.

Pastor Wang has been imprisoned since December 2018 and is serving a nine-year sentence, expected to end in 2027.

Religious freedom advocates are calling for transparency, family visitation and independent medical care.

Please join us in praying for Pastor Wang Yi.

Pastor Ramazan Arkan survived an assassination attempt for his faith in Christ. Yet despite fear and persecution, he continues to serve the church in Türkiye.

His reminder? Faith isn't the absence of fear – it's continuing to walk with Christ despite it.

How do Christians stand firm when following Jesus comes at a cost?

MEXICO: Pastor and Wife Killed in Ambush Attack

On 15 October, Pastor Ángel González of Irapuato Calvary Chapel and his wife, Irán Montes, were returning home in Guanajuato, Mexico, when masked attackers opened fire as they prepared to enter their garage.

Pastor González died at the scene, while his wife died in hospital hours later.

The couple leaves behind two children, aged 17 and 18, and a grieving church community.

One suspect has reportedly been arrested, but the motive behind the attack remains unclear.

Pray for God's comfort and peace for their children, family and congregation. Ask the Lord to strengthen believers in their grief and bring those responsible to repentance and faith in Christ.

Here's what a child in a restricted nation might receive: a Bible or Christian storybook, school supplies, food, clothing, toys or hygiene items, depending on what that child needs most.

Every pack is sourced locally and handed over by VOM front-line workers who know these families by name.
