When you meet Kelly Saenz, you would never know the pain and heartache she has suffered since November of 2014. Despite the fact that Kelly and her husband Pabel were raising two small children at the time, they willingly took Bibles to some very dangerous places in Colombia. One day, Pabel failed to return home. A few days later, Kelly’s life was shattered after receiving a phone call announcing that her young husband had been killed. The Voice of the Martyrs Canada brings you the story of this courageous woman, and how VOMC is helping Kelly and her children rebuild their lives.

In addition to helping them establish a secure means of sustainability and livelihood, the ministry is supporting their efforts to present the Gospel from their new community – seizing this opportunity as a means of outreach to Colombians residing in surrounding areas.
