    "What can I do to help persecuted Christians?" 


    PRAY! Prayer crosses borders and unleashes God's power to reach those who are being oppressed... as well as their oppressors. Nothing is impossible with God, and we are privileged to partner with God when we pray. Will you pray?


    Visit our International Day of Prayer page to find resources for your church or organization to download and share for free. And for other ways to help persecuted Christians, visit our Get Involved page. We are glad you're here!

  • two new stories in "Meet the Persecuted"

    "Omad's Story" and "Assaulted on the Subway" tell of life in Muslim Majority countries and the harassment that Christ-followers experience, as well as the amazing way that God is reaching Muslims through dreams.

  • join us on FACEBOOK and INSTAGRAM

    Stay informed of upcoming events/webinars, plus, more opportunities to connect.

We are encouraged by how God is moving around the world, appearing in dreams and opening up avenues for Christians to share their faith in countries that are hostile to the message of Jesus. Join us as we share these stories and shine a spotlight on the persecution and the hope of these dear brothers and sisters in Christ.

42 years of ministry to the persecuted Church

February of 2024 marks 42 years of Dr. Pat traveling and encouraging persecuted Believers around the world! She spent the first ten years visiting Communist countries, but for the past thirty years she has traveled primarily to Muslim Majority Countries in the Middle East and North Africa. Brother Dave began traveling with Dr. Pat and encouraging our Brothers and Sisters in those regions in 2017. We are so happy to share stories of persecution and hope through our prayer letters. We will share some on our website here, but please, if you are not currently receiving our Prayer Letters, sign up today!
