John,
In Matthew 28, one of the first things Jesus said after rising from the dead was, “Do not be afraid.”
This Good Friday, despite the global health crisis, His words still ring true. We need not be afraid because our Savior is risen.
"For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit." 1 Peter 3:18
But just as Jesus suffered, innocent Christians are suffering all over the world, right now. And it’s our sacred duty to act.
Christians in Nigeria face immense persecution. Just before one pastor was killed, he boldly told the world, “Don’t worry. But thank God for everything.”
We are continually working at the U.N., urging intervention before it’s too late. Take action with us.

Pakistan has been ranked the 5th most dangerous country in the world for Christians. Believers face constant violent persecution for their faith.
Our office on the ground in Pakistan is working to defend them.

Innocent Christian pastors like Pastor John Cao - a U.S. permanent resident - imprisoned in China, and Pastor Bryan Nerren - a U.S. citizen - wrongfully detained in India, face even more danger as COVID-19 ravages these nations.
We're working across the globe to win their freedom.
Sign Our Petition: Free Christian Pastor John Cao.
Sign Our Petition: Release Christian Pastor Bryan Nerren.
Even during a health crisis, the work of the ACLJ does not stop.
This Good Friday, remember to pray for these endangered Christians around the world.
