“Remember those in prison as if you were in prison with them. Remember those who are mistreated as if you were being mistreated.� Hebrews 13:3 Over 100 million Christians around the world are being persecuted for their faith in Jesus Christ. Although that number seems staggering, there are many ways that you, your family, and your church can make a significant impact to help them.
One way is to join us for the First Annual IDOP Festival of Nations on Sunday, November 2.
Christian Freedom International at Work in Sault Ste. Marie One way that Christian Freedom International works locally is through The Freedom Inn. Located in downtown Sault St. Marie, The Freedom Inn offers refugees from Burma and Thailand a semi-permanent place to stay while they assimilate to life in the United States. While at The Freedom Inn, these formally persecuted Christians are mentored by local American Christians on spiritual matters and life in America. 100% of admission fees for the First Annual Festival of Nations will benefit The Freedom Inn, right here in your hometown. The free-will offering during the worship service will help Christian Freedom International help persecuted Christians around the world.
