In the fourth Arise Africa episode, we focus on Sudan. It’s ranked 4th on the Open Door’s World Watch List 2026, where Christians face extreme persecution amid civil war and political upheaval.

Since the 2021 military takeover and the outbreak of brutal conflict in 2023, religious freedom has sharply deteriorated. Churches have been bombed, occupied by militias and forced to close. Believers face discrimination, arrest and violence, while converts from Islam endure intense pressure, isolation and threats from family and community.

With a violence score of 100%, Sudan’s Church is under immense strain – yet Rafat Samir testifies about God’s goodness and faithfulness amid a war-torn country.

Listen, learn, and act – because silence is not an option. Sign the Arise Africa Petition today!
