Over 300 churches have now registered to be a part of Solidarity Sunday.
Solidarity Sunday promises to be a unique opportunity for churches to unite, pray and raise awareness about global persecution.
Many churches have ordered t-shirts with the Arabic letter "N", a symbol that has been used to mark Christians for persecution.
These t-shirts will help provide an important visual demonstration for opportunities with local and social media.
 
Today is the last day to order Solidarity Sunday t-shirts.
You can order your church's Solidarity Sunday t-shirts from this online store.
If your church has not yet registered to be a part of Solidarity Sunday, more information can be found here.
Please continue to pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters.
