Who Will Help the Widow in Need?

They beheaded her husband in front of her and locked her inside her own home. After al-Shabab beheaded Anna Eboni’s husband for refusing to convert to Islam, the 50-year-old widow was left to grieve alone. She can barely talk about the attack without being overcome with emotion. Like more than 3,000 other Kenyans who have fled attacks from Islamic extremists, Anna received immediate help through VOM’s Families of Martyrs Fund. Many Christians find themselves in similar positions every day, and VOM responds by providing assistance such as food, bedding, mosquito nets, temporary shelter and other means of support. We invite you to join us in supporting families of martyrs by making a monthly contribution to the Families of Martyrs Fund, which helps us provide immediate assistance to persecuted believers. When you commit to a monthly contribution, we will send you photographs twice a year of some of the brothers and sisters your funds are supporting.
