Tell others about Jesus like these Missionary Martyrs  did:

 Though we are not all called to be Missionaries, we are all called by God to share our faith (witness) with those who are not Christians.  Some Bible verses that you will find helpful for doing this, and that you may want to commit to memory are found on other pages on our  web site (see: Memory Verses; 2nd Set: Salvation!, Plan of Salvation, and Statement of Faith). _________________

They took the Good news where few others dared.

China: 1873 and World War II 

Meet aristocratic southerner Lottie Moon, who did the unthinkable in 1873 and traveled as a single woman to Shanghai, China.  Get to know the Indian-born son of missionaries, Captain John Birch, who also went to China---and changed the course of the Second World War. 

Auca Indians of Ecuador 

Be introduced to Nate Saint, a popular pilot with Midwestern roots, who in 1956 blazed a path to the savage Auca Indians of Ecuador.  And meet the Ivory Coast born daughter of missionaries, Betty Olsen, who in 1965 landed with only her medical kit in the heart of war-torn Vietnam.

...they were persecuted---to the point of death---until they received their eternal rewards.

They were four ordinary people who did extraordinary things with the help of, and for the sake of, their Savior.  And in His name they were persecuted---to the point of death---until they received their eternal rewards.

The legacy of these courageous men and women lives on...

The legacy of these courageous men and women lives on in the hearts of those who continue their missionary work---and in all who read and respond to their inspiring stories.
