For almost 60 years, Open Doors has worked in the world's most oppressive countries, empowering Christians who are persecuted for their beliefs through programs like Bible & Gospel Development, Women & Children Advancement and Community Restoration.

We strive to raise awareness of global persecution, mobilizing prayer, support and action among the Christians around the world. Every year, Open Doors publishes our World Watch List, which ranks countries by the severity of persecution.
