In the shadowed corners of the world, whispers of faith rise from the persecuted church. Christians in these regions face unimaginable hardship, sustained only by their unwavering trust in Jesus. These environments of persecution represent some of the most difficult and dangerous places to reach with the gospel. Yet, our Global Workers—both long-term missionaries and short-term teams—are on the frontlines, tirelessly carrying out evangelism, discipleship, church planting, and humanitarian aid across numerous countries.
This year, we unite in prayer for those nations where the good news of Jesus has yet to be heard. Pray for God to prepare hearts to hear and receive the gospel, even in the face of adversity, and for believers around the world to be obedient to His call to go to these unreached people, regardless of the risk. Let us pray for strength, courage, and protection for those who serve in these hard places, trusting that God’s love will break through every barrier.
August 2025 | Chase & Leslie
Syrian Refugees
This August, we’re praying together for Chase and Leslie, global workers serving among refugees in the Middle East. The people they serve remain one of the largest unreached people groups in the world, and years of conflict have left families displaced, grieving, and searching for hope. In the midst of hardship, God is opening doors—refugees are meeting Jesus, and some are even returning home with the gospel. Chase and Leslie are faithfully walking alongside these communities, offering presence, care, and truth in a place that desperately needs all three.
