As we step into a new year, we’re reminded that much of the work we do to serve persecuted believers in Asia happens quietly and often goes unseen.
In fact, many urgent needs we meet never get reported due to the surrounding dangers—but every so often, we’re able to share a glimpse into what believers are facing and how timely help can make a difference. This video captures one such moment from India, where 11 new Christian believers narrowly escaped being burned alive when extremists set their homes on fire as they slept, leaving everything they owned in ashes.
Meanwhile, for the first time in its history, neighboring Pakistan held state-sponsored Christmas celebrations as a display of support for the nation’s Christians. See Pakistan Makes Christmas Official (God Reports).
