At the time, we simply wanted to document, identify with, and pray for our brothers and sisters in the top 50 countries where it's most dangerous to profess and practice the Christian faith. Now, 30 years later, the global phenomenon of Christian persecution has grown alarmingly. That's why I'm inviting you to join me and former Open Doors global field director and founder of the World Watch List, Wybo Nicolai for a special livestream key findings from the 2023 report – and what they mean for believers like you today. DATE: Tuesday, January 17 TIME: 7pm Eastern LOCATIONS: Open Doors US Facebook page or the NEW Open Doors US Website As the 2023 global picture of Christian suffering becomes clear, you'll see some disturbing trends emerging… How Christians in Afghanistan suffer under Taliban rule The spread of extreme persecution across the continent of Africa The impact of organized crime and corruption in South America are fostering antagonism toward churches in the public square For the third year in a row, Christians are now facing very high or extreme levels of persecution in all 50 countries on the list These and other critically important updates – with specific stories direct from the field – will be the focus of our livestreamed discussion during the 2023 World Watch List release. But as you digest what's happening to your Christian family members worldwide, I encourage you to not become disheartened. God is faithful, and He is working powerfully, even… especially… in dark and persecuted places. The World Watch List is meant to embolden believers like you to see and learn what's going on in the world, to pray for your Christian brothers and sisters, and to get the word out, so others can pray too. That's why I urge you to join us on Tuesday, Jan. 17, to examine the Top 50 countries where following Jesus comes at the highest price – and what you and I can do about it. Please click here to add this event to your calendar to tune in to the livestream. I'm so grateful for your heart to stand with the persecuted church, and I look forward to connecting with you on Jan. 17. With every blessing, Lisa Pearce Interim CEO, Open Doors Add to my calendar!
