ICC is advocating for persecuted Christians at the highest levels. On August 7th, prominent human rights lawyer, Gao Zhisheng was released from prison but is not yet free. His lawyer told BBC News that Gao has been “utterly destroyed” after three years in jail. Since his release, public security officers “visit” him daily in shifts, each lasting two or three hours. As a result, he and family members are unable to live normal lives. In September, ICC joined 20 other organizations in calling on President Obama to address the case of Gao Zhisheng and other Christians in China enduring imprisonment and torture because of their faith. Please pray that the U. S. government and the international community will help bring Gao Zhisheng to the U.S. to receive medical treatment and reunite with his family.

Is Pakistan a safe haven for Christians fleeing the Taliban... or an even worse nightmare?
Sardar (not pictured) was abducted by the Taliban en route to the border and held until his family could pay a ransom.
They managed to scrape the money together, devastating them financially. Once in Pakistan, Sardar and his family were not well received. Like nearly all refugees, they faced hunger and poor living conditions. With no means of work, they were at the mercy of Pakistan’s refugee system.
After suffering for a time, Sardar and his family considered it better to return to Afghanistan. The fact that he had been subjected to the Taliban’s cruelties firsthand and still decided to go back illustrates the dreadful state of Afghan refugees in Pakistan.
