China: No under 18s!
Open Doors Youth, PO Box 6, Witney, Oxon, UK, OX29 6WG
We serve Christians around the world whose brave faith in Jesus means they are beaten, threatened, imprisoned, tortured, falsely accused, disowned and hated.
In China, where it’s illegal for under-18s to join in with any church events. Watch the video below to hear how Open Doors worker Simon* was helping to run a secret youth camp when it was raided by the authorities.
*Name changed for security reasons
