#RedWednesday: Break the Silence

BREAK THE SILENCE


Will you help to Break the Silence on the persecution of Christians? Take action in 2023 to give a voice to the voiceless. Help through the year culminating in #RedWednesday on 22nd November. Please help ACN’s Nigeria petition reach 10,000 signatures by April.

We request that the UK Government call on their Nigerian counterparts to bring to justice those responsible for genocidal attacks such as the Pentecost Sunday 2022 massacre.

TAKE ACTION: SIGN, LEARN, PRAY, SHARE, GO2MASS, GIVE – JOIN US!

FACT

Christians suffer persecution – from harassment to murder – in more countries than any other faith group.
