In a compelling message to supporters and the broader Christian community, Floyd A. Brobbel, Chief Executive Officer of Voice of the Martyrs Canada (VOMC), has outlined the organization’s core values and commitment to supporting persecuted Christians worldwide. Drawing from the beloved hymn “This Little Light of Mine,” Brobbel challenged believers to boldly share their faith despite facing opposition.

Brobbel began his message by referencing the Sunday School classic written by Harry Dixon Loes, connecting its simple yet powerful message to Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:16 about letting one’s light shine before others.

According to Brobbel, the global body of believers shines the “light of Christ” through three primary ways: making disciples (Matthew 28:19), building up the saints (Matthew 28:20), and bringing glory to God (Matthew 5:16). He emphasized that local churches prioritizing these goals contribute to the expansion of God’s Kingdom throughout the earth, even when facing persecution.

The VOMC work encompasses supporting widows of martyred pastors and their children with basic necessities, advocating for imprisoned missionaries and evangelists, rebuilding destroyed churches, and training young Bible college students to become future spiritual leaders.

Brobbel emphasized that unlike gates, which are stationary and defensive, the church is called to move forward with purpose and strength. Through this divine momentum, he believes God’s Kingdom will continue to grow exponentially, even in the face of opposition.

The CEO concluded his message with a powerful call to action, encouraging believers not to hide their faith but to let it shine boldly, even in the face of persecution.
