Defend Persecuted Christians Worldwide

424,744

Signatures //

Christian persecution has escalated at a staggering rate worldwide.

ISIS – the Islamic State – has abducted hundreds of Christians for slaughter.

Though they are on the run, they have crucified Christian men, enslaved Christian women, and barbarically beheaded Christian children.

Pakistan has sentenced Christians to death for blasphemy, and has barbarically persecuted children of underprivileged Christian families.

Iran and Sudan have imprisoned Christian pastors, merely because of their faith.

America can and must do more to protect persecuted Christians around the globe.

We’ve mobilized our international offices and continue to work in Congress to protect the persecuted Church.

Be their voice in Congress. Add your name to our petition.

Petition to Protect Persecuted Christians

To Congress:

The worldwide persecution of Christians is on the rise.

They’ve been imprisoned, tortured, and even brutally killed for their faith. America must do more to defend them. Stop funding persecuting nations and take decisive action to protect Christians.
