Across the world, millions of Christians live in places where following Jesus comes at a great cost. Some estimates put this number as high as 380 million. That’s one in seven Christians worldwide who face persecution for their faith!
Organized by the World Evangelical Alliance, for more than two decades, the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP) has united the global church in prayer for our suffering brothers and sisters. Observed each November, churches around the world dedicate this time to intercede and act on behalf of those who remain steadfast in faith amid hardship and hostility.
This year, under the theme “Faithful to the End” (Revelation 2:10), IDOP 2025 will be marked on November 2 and 9, with churches free to observe it throughout the month.
We invite you to visit IDOP.org for resources, stories, and ways to participate.
