WHY OPEN DOORS?

In Christ, we strengthen the most persecuted. We connect the Australian and New Zealand Church with their persecuted family to deepen one another's discipleship journey. When you work with us, you'll get the chance to strengthen the faith of persecuted Christians, even in the most dangerous places.

We asked our people their thoughts on working with Open Doors and here's what they had to say:

• "Working for Open Doors means being challenged and encouraged in your faith every day It's a privilege to be in a job that helps strengthen the global body of Christ."
• "Seeing and hearing real stories of persecution has forced me to see my walk with Christ in a new way."
• "It is such a joy to know that I'm using the gifts that God has given me to help serve those who need to be served."

Working with us also provides the opportunity to be a part of regular team devotions, access to Christian counselling and mentoring, as well as coming together for bi-annual team days for fellowship, prayer, and worship.

OUR IMPACT
