I want to encourage YOU to remember our brothers and sisters around the world who are persecuted for their faith! I have been reminded recently of the incredibly importance and responsibility of "free" Christians to pray for those who are persecuted for their faith!
The Voice of the Martyrs website has been really effective in reminding me of the needs of other Christians. You can receive monthly newsletters in the mail or weekly email prayer requests. I strongly encourage you to take a peek!
Another very helpful resource is the list of ways to prayer for persecuted Christians that uses the Scriptures. http://www.persecution.net/prayer.htm Often we tend to trivialize the incredible power of prayer. Do not be deceived - our prayers are powerful!
Here is the VOM website - please do take a look.

(this is a subsite of the official site, which is http://www.persecution.com/)
ALSO the Bible League has a ministry for the persecuted church.
