Waqas Masih was brutally attacked for refusing to give up his Christian faith.

Will you stand with persecuted Christians like Waqas Masih?

In Pakistan, Christians face extreme persecution — in their churches, workplaces, schools and homes. Aid to the Church in Need is working to provide urgent help, but we need your support.

In March, 22-year-old Waqas Masih was stabbed in the throat by his supervisor for refusing to convert to Islam. He suffered serious injuries and is now recovering in hospital. He is just one of many people experiencing violence for their faith.

Please pray for Waqas and share his story. Read more here
