SUPPORT CHRISTIANS IN CENTRAL ASIA

Christians in Central Asia are facing huge challenges, and we 

want to invite you to help them. Our partner and his co-workers 

travel to countries like Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan

 to help local Christian workers who are sharing the good news 

of Jesus and discipling new believers who face persecution.

Most Christians in Central Asia are unable to lead ordinary 

lives. They can be arrested for reading the Bible in a public

 place like a bus or a train, or for telling other people about Jesus.

Often the homes of local pastors or believers can be searched 

and their belongings confiscated by the police because everyday

 Christian activities like praying together, or doing a Bible study 

can be deemed as ‘illegal.’

Take Tajikistan, for example. New churches that do not have 

their own buildings cannot hold Sunday services in other buildings

 because it’s prohibited by the police.

Obtaining permission from the government is very difficult and

 complicated. Also, they do not have the resources to purchase 

a building. So, they are forced to worship in secret and if they 

are caught doing this they could face interrogation and heavy fines.

Release channels financial resources to local Christian workers 

across Central Asia through our trusted ministry partners. When 

the going gets hard they can count on our prayers and support to 

help them stand strong in their faith. Release Int. Please donate.
