“The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and
produces wonderful results.”
James 5:16 NLT

Your prayers are powerful. And today, Christians in Myanmar need your church’s prayers more than ever…

Right now, thousands of our brothers and sisters in Myanmar are struggling to survive. Civil war is being used to persecute Christians, and after being driven from their homes, believers are being targeted again and again. A devastating earthquake in March has caused even more suffering.

Believers like Pastor Yang (name changed) feel desperate and alone. “You know, sometimes we feel God is not with us,” this young pastor confided.


 
Will you and your church unite in prayer and lift up Myanmar’s persecuted Christians before God? 
Join the INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER FOR THE PERSECUTED CHURCH on Nov 2, 2025.

FAQs

Short for International Day of Prayer, IDOP is an annual day for prayer for persecuted Christians. Each year in November, Christians around the world set aside a day to remember and pray for our brothers and sisters who are suffering for their faith in Christ.

The first IDOP, in 1996, was organized by the World Evangelical Alliance. The day takes place on the first Sunday of November every year because it falls in the time of “Hallowtide,” a period in the church calendar dedicated to commemorating the martyrs of the Christian faith.

We encourage you to gather your small group, prayer group, or church to pray together for our suffering brothers and sisters. After you’ve registered for IDOP, you will be able to download an IDOP resource pack put together by us, which has stories, videos and prayer points.

Sure you can! Choose any day in November that works for you, your church or small group to pray.

Of course! Sign up here for stories and prayer updates from the persecuted church.
