One Body: Hope for the Persecuted

The Anglican Persecuted Church Network (APCN), a mission network of New Wineskins, invites you to join us for a two-day conference this September 27 & 28 in Texas, focused on supporting the global persecuted church. With more than 365 million Christians suffering persecution and discrimination, it is more important than ever to gather as one body to hear testimonies, pray, and learn what we can and should do to advocate for and help those persecuted for their faith in Jesus. 

The speaker team includes Mike Brickley of Families Set Free, Bob Fu of ChinaAid, Dominic Sputo of The Alliance for Persecuted Christians and Bp. Elnail Adam Andudu, Bishop-in-Exile to the Kadugli Diocese of Sudan as well as our APCN co-leaders: Faith McDonnell and Patricia Streeter. Please come and bring a team from your church. Check out all the details such as schedule, speakers, location, promotion kit, and registration here.

But why is this conference so important? APCN co-leader, Patricia Streeter, explains: 

“In these horrific days of attack on the church, it is imperative that we encourage each other in our quest to share the hope and light of Jesus to a very dark world.
