1st Day at VOM

Before starting my work day at Voice of the Martyrs (VOM).  The address seems to be shrouded in secrecy.  I emailed and called to get the address so I could google map or GPS it.  But they kept turning me away to call in the day of to get directions the morning of my first work day.  So I did, and finally got directions. I literally had to be on the cell phone, on the road driving, before they would tell me where to turn. I later inquired, and they have buffed up their security recently due to the work that they do and they have a "target" on their back.

So today I was helping box up parachute kits and stacking them on a pallet to be shipped out.  Click here to see.   These parachutes will be shipped to Columbia, and a pilot will drop them over the jungles for FARC guerrillas.  These packages contain Bibles, other Christian literature, and radios pretuned to Christian radio station.  The goal is to drop the gospel out of the sky for the guerrilla FARC soldiers.  Notoriously known for terrorist acts and drug trade.  They are Marxist-Leninist revolutionaries that hope to overthrow the current government.

The other work I helped out with is VOM's monthly newsletter they send out for free.
