Voices from the edges

The Christian community is under intense pressure across the Middle East.

Those coming to faith from a Muslim background will often feel this most acutely, with many risking imprisonment, torture or even death for professing faith in Jesus. Almost all will face rejection from their families and wider communities.

In the face of such pressures, and without support from fellow believers, it is unsurprising that many feel they have no choice but to leave their homeland to escape persecution, or leave the Christian faith altogether.

Unsurprising, but not inevitable. Our vision is to see believers in the Middle East equipped to persevere in their faith, build strong and welcoming Christian communities, and make new disciples for Jesus in their nations.

We are really excited to be working alongside our regional partner the Together Network to support God’s people in some of the most difficult places in the world to be a Christian. 

We warmly invite you to partner with us in equipping Muslim background believers to persevere in their faith and to build God’s Kingdom in the Middle East.

Until the end of January, every gift we receive for the first year of this ministry will be matched, thanks to a very generous CMS supporter.
