This weekend as we celebrate our freedom here in the States, we can remember those who are enslaved and persecuted all over the world. The Lord wants us to "let the oppressed go free and break every yoke." (Isaiah 58:6 NLT) Only people who are already free can respond to this call. Will we?
Bill Drake is OM's International Music Minister.

Cyber Sea Voyage
The Logos Hope had a successful launch in London this weekend. The ship is now sailing and you can track its trip online via the Logos Hope Voyage Dashboard. You'll find a GPS map and a Google Earth map, as well as three webcams. The webcams are still images which change at regular intervals. Frequency of uploads depends on what is going on at the time and also how much bandwidth is available to the ship.
Here's a screen shot from the only outside webcam. This is the view from the Port Bridge Wing. The crew is scheduled to land at Cork, Ireland on July 1st. If you are close by, go see them!
