COVID-19 has caused shutdowns and scarcity across the world. As social distancing guidelines, new safety practices, and work-from-home orders are instated, families everywhere are facing economic, emotional, and spiritual struggle.
The community surrounding ICC’s Hope House in Egypt is no different.
With impoverished Christians treated as lower-class citizens, the trials brought on by this pandemic devastate these families. Many are already struggling to provide for their children. A crisis such as this can create extremely dire circumstances, since both work and supplies are already scarce.
In spite of all of this, though, the families have kept a firm faith. Though the education center is closed, Hope House activities are continuing. Families are regularly visited by ICC’s team. They are provided food, hygiene, and basic medical care. Several families look forward to these visits and encouraged to use the newly available time in devotions.

JESUS clearly said in John 10:10 "The enemy comes only to steal, kill, and destroy. I AM come that you may have and enjoy life in abundance, to the ful, untill it is running over."
The ransom requested versus conversion to Islam is irreconcilable.
The only true freedom one has is the freedom to choose, which is the difference between forced "conversions" and the Gospel call.
Father God, strengthen your servant as he stands unperturbed by their assaults on his freedom he has, being Your child because of the choices he made. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen!
So sad. Praying we should be properly speaking for everyone
Nigeria a failed state. The soldiers too scared to protect & fight. Only good forbonline scamming.
Christian 'Biafra' should have secceded long back. Persecution of Christians would continue and the world will sit back and watch !
Majority of these are happening in the northern part of Nigeria, a lot of southerners don't know what's happening.
Pray for our persecuted brothers.
too lazy to work,just thugs.
Where are the protests about this? Some people are real hypocrites.
What about a bomb as an answer to your abuse.
Lord have mercy
HORRIBLE.
Nigeria is one of the countries with the highest levels of Christian persecution. I have not seen these figures monitored by the Nigerian government. Action needs to be taken by the Nigerian government
Thank you for letting the world know, I pray for him
I pray that God will intervene for this pastor. That God will send His angels to guard and protect this pastor with the blood of Jesus and that no harm is laid on him. I pray for this pastor to remain steadfast in his faith and not compromise. I pray that God will strengthen him and give Him peace and wisdom to know how to handle these enemies. I pray that the power of the Holy Spirit will convict these men and bring them to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. In Jesus name I ask amen
