Solidarity with persecuted families in crisis

When believers are imprisoned, displaced, or stripped of their livelihoods for following Jesus, our partners make sure they never face it alone.

Aisha—a wife and mother to young children—was arrested and imprisoned because of her faith. For months, her kids struggled with the emotional weight of both the stigma of having their mother in jail and the uncertainty of her release.

Our partner in the area stepped in and secured legal representation for her and as a result, after several months, she was released. Throughout the ordeal, and even since she’s been home, our parters have walked alongside Aisha and help with her family practical support, legal representation, and encouragement while they recover from the hardship of her imprisonment.


Aisha’s family isn’t alone

Across this country, other believers face similar persecution for their faith. Our partners come alongside and assist them through displacement, lost livelihoods, medical or legal situations.

In 2026 our partners will:

  • Continue assisting families in crisis
  • Administer a medical fund for Christians and their dependents in consultation with a doctor and church leaders
  • Provide security and legal assistance to Jesus followers in cases of emergency and persecution
  • Offer congregational care to make sure that families’ most critical needs are met


Be part of the story

Persecution isn’t an abstract or distant concept for these Christians. Your generosity brings fellowship, encouragement, and hope to families who are faithfully following Jesus in the face of immense hardship. Your donation helps provide legal assistance, medical support, emergency care, and congregational encouragement so persecuted families are not left to carry their burdens alone.
