Prisoner Alert
There are many Christians throughout the world arrested for their faith for the most trivial of reasons. Well, actually for no other reason than they are Christians. And when they are arrested they are beaten, tortured, "rehabilitated," and often executed.
Prisoner Alert not only keeps us abreast of their situations, but provides us an easy way to write to our persecuted brothers and sisters to encourage them. It's easy, and you and your group should do it. Go here to see what can be done.

Amnesty International (AI) is a worldwide movement of people who campaign for internationally recognized human rights. Fair warning: They are not a "Christian" organization per se. But one thing I did with Amnesty before was to write letters to governments of different countries for individuals who had been deprived of basic human rights. The beauty of that is that we can help that individual get those basic rights which we in America take for granted,
and we can also witness to the poor government lackey who ends up reading the spiritually tinged letter. Win-win situation. And it's good to know how utterly crappy life is for others in other countries, so we can be motivated to help.

The Voice of the Martyrs is a non-profit, interdenominational organization with a vision for aiding Christians around the world who are being persecuted for their faith in Christ, fulfilling the Great Commission, and educating the world about the ongoing persecution of Christians. 

Around the world, in over 40 countries, our brothers and sisters daily face persecution for their faith in Jesus Christ. The Voice of the Martyrs has created a tool to help you to minister to and encourage our captive brothers and sisters. Through writing a letter in their language you can reach out to them. They're not heroes or statistics, they're family.

The ultimate goal of the National Right to Life Committee is to restore legal protection to innocent human life. The primary interest of the National Right to Life Committee and its members has been the abortion controversy; however, it is also concerned with related matters of medical ethics which relate to the right to life issues of euthanasia and infanticide. The Committee does not have a position on issues such as contraception, sex education, capital punishment, and national defense. 

Rock For Life is committed to offering the truth about abortion, infanticide, and euthanasia to America's youth through music and ministry.
