Right now, Christians in the Holy Land are suffering alongside their Muslim neighbors from terrible persecution. Although many are from families that have lived in the region for centuries, they are being denied basic human rights because they are not part of Israel’s preferred ethnic and religious group. Some are descendants of Christ’s earliest followers, yet most have never known freedom in the land of their ancestors. They are calling out to churches of the world and urgently asking for our help.
