A Macedonian Call
A Safe Home for Persecuted Daughters of Christ
Who are suffering at the hands of Islam, including those who have left its bondage to follow Him
“Come over to Macedonia and help us.” — Acts 16:9
From the shadows to the Light
They come to us from dark and painful places— Girls who have been hurt, rejected, and left behind by those who should have cared for them.
Many of them carry deep pain that no one sees. They suffer because they chose to follow Jesus, leaving behind fear and the control of religion.
These are not just numbers. They are daughters—brave, loved by God, and full of hope for healing.
One 15-year-old girl named Mysha shared:
“My parents remarried and left us behind. We were just three, trying to survive on our own. I was so angry I wanted to hurt them… But I didn’t—because Jesus taught us to forgive.”
The Beginning of the Call
Since 2003, we have been helping girls like Mysha— those crying out from places of pain and hopelessness.
Our journey began when we saw hungry children searching for food in the trash near our home. That moment broke our hearts, and we knew God was calling us to help.
So, we said yes……
A mission beyond aid
With God’s help, we are now reaching into communities where Islam is dominant— bringing not just practical help, but the love and healing of Jesus.
We give children what they’ve been denied: School supplies, tuition, and medical care. But more importantly, we give what only Jesus can offer— Hope, healing, and a new identity in Him.
Through after-school programs, Bible teaching, youth camps, and workshops, we work with local courageous churches to raise up a new generation— boys and girls who follow Jesus boldly, even in hard places.
But we face many challenges.
Our ministry center is a small 70 m² rented apartment in Dhaka.
There’s no outdoor space, and we can’t fit more than 20 people at once.
When persecuted girls come looking for help, we often don’t have room to take them in.
The urgent need for a
SAFE HOME
We have already helped three teenage girls by placing them in temporary safe homes.
They are now safe, healing, and starting a new life.
But for every girl we help, many more are still in danger— facing abuse, threats, forced marriages, and even death— just because they chose to follow Jesus.
The vision:
A permanent place of HOPE
God has given us a clear vision— to build a Safe Home where persecuted girls can find protection, healing, and a fresh start in Christ.
Thanks to the support of generous partners, we now have a beautiful property— 14,374.8 sq. ft., once used as a kindergarten.
It includes a meeting room, several other rooms, a small playground, and sits on 33 decimals of land, with space to grow.
The property already has electricity and clean water.
With some repairs, this place can become a safe and loving home— not just for surviving, but for growing strong in faith and hope.
What’s needed NOW
The building needs repairs. A strong boundary wall must be built. The rooms need to be fixed and prepared for living. We want to turn this place into a safe and loving home— where persecuted girls can find shelter, safety, education, life skills, and a new identity in Jesus.
This is not just a project.
It’s a mission from God.
