INTERNATIONAL CHRISTIAN CONCERN<br />

Losing Everything to Find Jesus<br />

ICC IS THERE FOR CHRISTIAN CONVERTS WHO RISK EVERYTHING TO FOLLOW CHRIST<br />

If Muslims convert to Christianity and declare<br />

their allegiance to Jesus publicly in some regions,<br />

they may face immediate violence and threats.<br />

These new Christian believers stand to lose their<br />

families, communities, and very lives.<br />

Amina embraced Jesus and was exiled from her<br />

family. Her husband deserted her and her children.<br />

Her suffering was relentless, marked by her son’s<br />

tragic death a few years ago. After relocating to a<br />

safe town. After relocating to a safe town, a sister<br />

is mentoring Amina, and she is learning to sew.<br />

Her daughter serves on the church’s media team.<br />

Their life will never be the same, but they will now<br />

forever be marked by the love of Christ and his<br />

loving body of believers.<br />

GIVE TO RESCUE: WIVES & KIDS<br />

ICC cares for dozens of<br />

new Christian believers in<br />

the Middle East. Each new<br />

convert needs at least six<br />

months of base-level care<br />

that includes a safe place<br />

to live, medical care, food,<br />

job training, and a small<br />

business to provide financial<br />

support for their new life.<br />

We have relocated and<br />

shepherded many of<br />

these Muslim-background<br />

believers, but many others<br />

desperately wait in hiding<br />

for their turn to embrace<br />

Jesus.<br />
