Day of the Christian Martyr June 29, 2024

2024 DAY OF THE CHRISTIAN MARTYR INDUCTEES

Christians Persecuted in Mosul, Iraq Summer 2014

In the summer of 2014, militants from the self-proclaimed Islamic State (ISIS) advanced across Syria and northern Iraq. As they entered each village, they marked Christians’ homes and businesses with the Arabic letter “N,” or ن, for “Nazarene.”

This symbol served to identify and threaten Christians, who then had a difficult decision to make: Convert to Islam, leave the area or be killed.

More than 100,000 Christians were forced to flee in the stifling heat. Most escaped with only the clothes on their backs, and many died on the road or were taken by ISIS.

Separated from their loved ones, these bold Christians refused to deny Christ. They were willing to give everything for the Savior who had given his life for them.

May we be inspired by their examples, confidently proclaiming Christ at any cost.

According to church tradition, June 29 marks the martyrdom of the Apostle Paul. Each year on or around this date, Christians around the world take time to honor the legacy of those who, like Paul, gave their lives to advance the gospel.

Today we remember and honor the faithful witness of Abdiwelli Ahmed, who paid the ultimate price to proclaim the gospel to ethnic Somali Muslims in Kenya. His dedication to the Great Commission inspires us to live boldly for Christ.
