Give Them HOPE!

You are well aware of violent hostility to Christianity and other faiths worldwide …
Christianity Today recently put numbers to that hostility:
The US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) has released a new report on anti-conversion laws around the world. Providing the legal text for 73 separate laws, the compendium notes that 1 in 4 nations (46 total) restrict the right of its people to either adopt or propagate a religion.
“The right to convert from one religion or belief to another, or to no religion or belief at all, is central to [the] protection for religious freedom,” said Susie Gelman, a USCIRF commissioner. “And in countries with anti-conversion laws, religious minorities tend to be broadly targeted for harassment, assault, arrest, and imprisonment.” (emphasis added)
Christ-followers and other people of faith in many countries pay a heavy price for their beliefs. Jewish people certainly do, as you and I have witnessed in real time the last several weeks through the Hamas terrorist group’s attacks on Israel.
But the victims’ plight doesn’t have to be the end of the story. You can bring them hope through your generosity.
We must do what we can to offer Christ’s compassion to those suffering through hardship, hunger, war, and more — for their faith and identity.
You will provide emergency food, water, shelter, and safety to believers in need of immediate support amid unrest and violence.
With your generosity, our Christ-centered partners will also be able to offer trauma counseling, literacy and job training, assistance in rebuilding churches and homes that have been attacked or destroyed … plus Bibles, discipleship training materials, and more.
You and I are blessed to be a blessing.
Let’s make an impact in the lives of persecuted Christians and others today!
