Our ministry is based on Hebrews 13:3: Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body. VOM’s Five Main Purposes are: 1.To encourage and empower Christians to fulfill the Great Commission in areas of the world where they are persecuted for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. 2.To provide practical relief and spiritual support to the families of Christian martyrs. 3.To equip persecuted Christians to love and win to Christ those who are opposed to the gospel in their part of the world 4.To undertake projects of encouragement, helping believers rebuild their lives and Christian witness in countries where they have formerly suffered oppression. 5.To promote the fellowship of all believers by informing the world of the faith and courage of persecuted Christians, thereby inspiring believers to a deeper level of commitment to Christ and involvement in His Great Commission.

Christians residing in restricted nations are often denied access to Bibles. They are considered illegal or can be extremely difficult to obtain. VOM prints Bibles in the languages of the countries where we work and smuggles them to believers who would otherwise never have an opportunity to read God's Word. VOM also provides New Testaments, children's Bibles, study Bibles and digital Bibles. Audio Bibles are distributed to those who cannot read.
VOM is committed to informing believers in the U.S. of the persecution endured by their Christian family worldwide in order to create fellowship in the Body of Christ and inspire all believers to make a deeper commitment to Christ and His Great Commission. VOM uses various forms of media to publicize stories of hope, faith and courage as persecuted Christians stand boldly for Jesus Christ.
VOM directly assists pastors, evangelists and Christian workers who carry out their ministry in the face of hostility and persecution. Assistance includes supplies that allow them to minister in remote villages, evangelistic materials, and training. In addition, VOM may provide support to workers and their families, helping them meet daily needs such as food, clothing and housing.
Often when a pastor or evangelist is imprisoned or killed because of his or her witness, the immediate family is often left with little means of financial support. VOM helps sustain these believers until a job or other financial provision can be obtained. VOM also provides immediate support to those who have suffered persecution themselves according to their needs, including living expenses, relocation, medical assistance or vocational training.
