PERSECUTED CHURCH SUNDAY
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 9:00 P.M.
More than 388 million Christians around the world face high levels of persecution or discrimination for their faith, roughly 1 in 7 believers globally according to the World Watch List report. The number of countries where Christians experience high, very high, or extreme persecution has grown significantly over the past decade, with around 60 countries now reporting severe levels of persecution.
We are going to have a special service emphasizing and praying for our brothers and sisters in Christ who are currently enduring severe persecution.
We will replicate what an underground church may experience during a church service. To do this, we will have the heat turned down, lights dimmed, and have a different style of worship music. Be sure to bring a coat or blanket. Most of the chairs will be removed from the sanctuary although there will be chairs for those who need them.
Our prayer for this special day is to not only bring awareness but to have a prayer emphasis to daily pray for those who endure physically for the cause of Christ.
