Our Main Purposes
The ministry of the Voice of the Martyrs has five main purposes based on Hebrews 13:3
Remember the prisoners, as though in prison with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you yourselves also are in the body.
Hebrews 13:3 (NASB)
- 1. To encourage and empower Christians to fulfil the Great Commission in areas of the world where they are persecuted for their involvement in propagating the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We accomplish this by providing Bibles, literature, radio broadcasts and other forms of aid.
- This is achieved through the Bibles for Captive Nations fund.
- 2. To give relief to the families of Christian martyrs in these areas of the world.
- This is achieved through the Families of Martyrs fund.
- 3. To undertake projects of encouragement, helping believers rebuild their lives and Christian witness in countries that have formerly suffered communist oppression.
- This is achieved through the Families of Martyrs fund.
- 4. To equip local Christians to love and bring to Christ their enemies who are opposed to the Gospel in countries where believers are actively persecuted for their Christian witness.
- This is achieved through the Equipping the Persecuted Church fund.
- 5. To emphasise the fellowship of all believers by informing the world about atrocities committed against Christians and by remembering their courage and faith.
- This is achieved through the General Mission Outreach Fund and the monthly publication 'The Voice of the Martyrs' newsletter.

The Constitution provides for freedom of religion, and the Government generally respects this right in practice; however, there are some restrictions, and the Government monitors the activities of religious institutions to keep them from becoming overtly political.
In early 2000, an unregistered Baptist congregation in Dushanbe was informed
that it was required to register with the Government, but the Baptists refused on
the grounds that they are a branch of the larger All-Baptist Churches, an organiza-tion
of Baptist churches from throughout the former Soviet Union. [ more]
