Heres some info on The Voice of the Martyrs Regional Conference: Please join us Saturday, November 8, for The Voice of the Martyrs’ “I Commit” Regional Conference. Many Christians around the world today are persecuted because of their faith in Christ, yet through their lives and words they continue to proclaim, “I Commit” to serve the Lord, to stand faithful and to share the gospel with others. Come and be encouraged by persecuted believers’ testimonies of courage and faith, hear how God has worked in their lives and learn what God’s Word teaches us about persecution and commitment. The conference will feature the following speakers: While growing up in Syria, “Brother John” heard the call to prayer shouted out from minarets across his country of 24 million people every day. It was a continual reminder of how many people needed to know the truth. Today, through ongoing ministry in war-torn Syria, “Brother John” sees God working in awesome ways to bring many Arab people to a true saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Guest Speaker — restricted nation. Takoosh Hovsepian, from Iran, grew up with a desire to spend her life in the service of God. She wasn’t expecting to face so many obstacles that would test her faith. Her husband, Christian martyr Rev. Haik Hovsepian, was 49 years old when he left the house one morning never to return. Takoosh struggled through all of this but eventually learned the true meaning of forgiveness. She now spends time encouraging other persecuted families and widows.
