Today we are thinking about Converts
Converts to Christianity from another faith (or none) may lose their jobs, homes, spouse, children and the support and love of their blood family when their new faith is revealed. Some may even lose their lives as their families cannot live with "losing face", the betrayal of all that they hold dear and so on.
Converts who lose their blood family need the love and support of their Christian family. We can pray for our brothers and sisters and also support charities which have specific programmes to help Christians living with severe discrimination - these may be schools, feeding programmes, setting up small businesses and so on.
