Can I Commit to Pray for the Persecuted?

Will you commit to pray for those who have lost everything — their homes, livelihoods, and even their sense of security — simply because of the faith they follow and the beliefs they live?

Across the globe, international religious freedom is noticeably more at risk than ever before. Freedom to gather, worship, pray, and share beliefs and traditions of faith are increasingly violated. Numerous countries are repeatedly cited year after year for inflicting dangerous and deadly abuses upon their religious minorities.

With Christian populations having dropped from 20% to 4% of the Middle East & North Africa (MENA) population over the past century, Christians are at risk of disappearing there. 

In addition to government-sponsored repression, militias and terrorist networks are a constant threat to religious minorities. When ISIS attacked Iraq in August 2014, they trapped over 100,000 Yezidis on Mount Sinjar. ISIS also took Yezidis women and girls and enslaved them, tortured them and sold many in sex markets. Many of the men and boys were executed and buried in mass graves since found in the area.

We invite you to join us in praying for those who are persecuted, displaced, and rebuilding their lives in a struggle motivated by faith. 

By agreeing to pray, you are helping bring healing, hope, and tangible change.

YES, I COMMIT TO PRAY:
