IDOP

International Day of Prayer

The first request of persecuted Christians is always,

“Please pray for us!"

Join us in prayer with Christians around the world on Sunday, 6 November for IDOP; the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. This special day is set aside to come together in prayer on behalf of persecuted Christians who stand as a bold witness for Christ on the world’s most dangerous mission frontiers.

Each year, VOM produces free resources to help us grow in fellowship with our persecuted Christian family members around the world. This year’s IDOP video, Rebecca: Nigeria, tells the story of a Nigerian woman who watched helplessly with her daughter as Boko Haram militants killed her husband and son, and burned their home. When she searched the charred remains of her home, she found the Bible that she and her husband had received on their wedding day. “I still use this Bible,” Rebecca said. “It reminds me of God’s faithfulness.”
