Prisoners of faith
In restricted nations around the world Christians face detention and torture, simply for following Jesus Christ.
In countries such as Burma, China, Eritrea, North Korea, Pakistan, Vietnam and others, Christian pastors, evangelists and ordinary believers are in prison today because of their active Christian witness.
Imagine
- being detained without trial, perhaps even tortured
- being unable to see your family, for months, or years
- enduring often terrible conditions
There are a number of ways that you can help Christians who have been imprisoned for their faith in Christ.
