Good news: Letter writing is now up and running again. See latest writing campaigns below!
When we encourage persecuted Christians we give them hope, help nurture patience, and make it easier for them to love as Jesus loves. You can write gracious words to our persecuted brothers and sisters, and strengthen them in the faith as they advance God’s Kingdom where faith costs the most.
