Stand with Christians in Colombia
Colombia’s “red zones,” areas controlled by militant guerrilla groups rather than the government, are among the world’s most dangerous places to follow Christ. Still, Christians there are sharing the gospel at any cost.

Working in these hostile areas often results in persecution from armed Marxist (atheistic communist) guerrillas and paramilitary forces. Christians are targeted because their obedience to God’s Word prevents them from supporting or joining the violent guerrilla groups funded through narcotics trafficking and other criminal activities.

Worship, evangelism and travel are dangerous in these areas as the guerrillas seek to control all aspects of villagers’ lives. Despite the risk, front-line workers in Colombia’s red zones continue to advance God’s kingdom through evangelism, Bible distribution and discipleship.

When Christians in Colombia face persecution because of their faith, you can respond by providing encouragement and support to them in their time of need. Your gifts to help persecuted Christians in Colombia will help address needs like

  • medical care in the aftermath of persecution events
  • temporary shelter, food or other unique needs
  • tools to equip our brothers and sisters to be bold witnesses to Christ

We invite you to stand with persecuted Christians in Colombia today.
