Website encourages youth action to support persecuted church

Open Doors have relaunched their youth website to help more young people support the persecuted church.

The site is designed to engage and inspire young people, students, and youth workers with the message of the persecuted church.

Open Doors Youth is inviting young people to visit youth.opendoorsuk.org and take action.

The website was developed by web communication experts Rechord, web developers On The Level Interactive, and graphic designer Dan Etheridge (www.chunkfunk.co.uk).

Eddie Lyle, CEO of Open Doors UK & Ireland, says: “Young followers of Jesus have a right to know what is happening to their church family in places where faith costs the most.

"I’m thrilled with our new youth website, it is a virtual gateway into the complex and challenging world of today’s persecuted church.

He adds, “Punchy, well written content supported by stunning images and stories are foundational in making this site a must visit.

"I know that visitors will be provoked to get down on their knees in prayer and on their feet in action.”
