One of the things I love about Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) is the way they come up with affordable, tangible ways for Americans to give to Christians who are seriously persecuted. In preparation for Christmas, for example, VOM is offering two different care packages that can make a real difference in the lives of persecuted people in India.

For children, donate just $25 and send a child clothing and shoes, toiletries (like a toothbrush and soap), school supplies (including a backpack, paper, pencils, and pens), food and vitamins, a children's Bible and Christian storybooks. What an incredible way to spend $25!

For $75, VOM also offers a "village outreach" care package that includes lots of ministry materials for church leaders, including practical items like a flashlight and batteries, Bibles, tracts, food, soap and household items, clothing, and a solar powered MP3 player loaded with gospel messages.

VOM's "Blanket and a Bible" outreach also continues. Just send in a blanket (new or gently used) and VOM will mail it, along with a children's Bible, to a needy Christian child in the Sudan. It doesn't get more affordable than that!

Can you spare an extra $25 or $75 this Christmas? Donate here.
