Summary

Summary“I’m Batoul, and I once thought it was so easy to follow Jesus 🎯, but my family saw my faith as betrayal. They beat me, forced me from my job, and ate together while I sat alone like an animal 🥺. At my lowest point, I even considered ending my life. Yet Christ found me in darkness—He filled me with hope, joy, and love 🌟. I forgave every person who hurt me, and now, no matter what comes, I will remain with Him 🙏.”

Batoul* is a young woman in her late 20s living somewhere in North Africa. When she chose Jesus, she didn’t know what she was getting into. Her life grew deeply painful—but God didn’t leave her behind. “I felt Christ changing me when I reached that period where I forgave every person that hurt me or did injustice in my life”.

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.
