Summary

I’m Pastor Miguel from Cuba. Born and raised under relentless persecution, I watched house churches grow in living roomsβ€”only to face government threats, wall-tearing, and confiscation. One day, a lawyer arrived miraculously to legalize our meeting place free of charge. Though intimidation tactics intensified, many of us refused to flee or silence our faith. Some now worship under trees, yet God continues to protect and empower His church in the darkness.

STRENGTHENING CHRISTIANS WHERE FAITH COSTS THE MOST Learn more about persecuted Christians at https://www.opendoorscanada.org Contact us at opendoors@odcan.org Our Purpose is to strengthen and equip the Body of Christ living under or facing restriction and persecution because of their faith in Jesus Christ, and to encourage their involvement in world evangelism by: - Providing Bibles and literature, media, leadership training, socio-economic development and intercessory prayer; - Preparing the Body of Christ living in threatened or unstable areas to face persecution and suffering, and; - Educating and mobilizing the Body of Christ living in the free world to identify with threatened and persecuted Christians and to be actively involved in assisting them. We do so because we believe that when one member suffers, all members suffer with it (1 Corinthians 12:26), that all doors are open and that God enables His Body to go into all the world and preach the Gospel.
