The persecuted Church is very much alive and growing — and you can get the inside story!
On August 12 2017, Open Doors Southern African will be hosting their first-ever Open Doors Day, where they’ll be sharing the inside story of how Open Doors has been working in over 60 countries for more than 60 years, supporting Christians who are persecuted for their faith in Jesus.

These will include: travelling with Open Doors to a closed country; the impact of discipleship training on the persecuted Church; the difference youth ministry makes in refugee camps in the Middle East; some smuggling adventures and testimonies; how you can put your running shoes to use in donating Bibles; and, a deeper encounter with persecuted Christian women, the doubly vulnerable in closed countries.
