Open Doors is a non denominational mission supporting persecuted Christians in over 70 countries where Christianity is socially or legally discouraged or oppressed. We welcomed George and Sandra Smith, representatives of Open Doors, to St. Cross. They came to share stories of their work with this charity as part of our project launch at the start of Lent 2018.
In the following weeks the congregation of St Cross sent 47 cards with messages of comfort and encouragement to Christians who were suffering for their faith.
Each contained a Bible verse offering hope for them in their distressing situation.
We continue our prayerful support throughout the year.
