Summary

SummaryI was only seven years old when I helplessly watched my father beaten and killed for following Jesus in our Ethiopian village 😒. The memories of that night haunted me, but God’s presence never left me. Through Open Doors Canada, I received groceries, school fees, and trauma counseling β€οΈπŸ™. Recently, I joined other persecuted children at an event where we played games, learned from the Bible, and experienced God’s healing embrace and newfound hope 😊.

As the only Christian family in their Ethiopian village, Wasihun and his family received constant insults and threats as villagers pressured them to return to Animism β€” the local religion.

Wasihun was only 7 years old when he watched helplessly as his father was brutally beaten and killed for being a Christ-follower.

But his story doesn’t end there.

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.
