Doing Hard Time For God !
Archbishop
Gary Beaver has been awarded the approval of the Old
Catholic Church of Great Britain and all member
churches of the Free Catholic Church of Europe
Communion, to commence his project without delay and
with every support of those churches in the Old
Catholic Communion.
Around the world, in over 40 countries, our brothers
and sisters face persecution for their faith in
Jesus Christ. They’re not heroes or statistics,
they’re our Christian family. Our persecuted
brothers and sisters do not have to suffer in
silence, we can join in their trials and triumphs as
co-workers in Christ.
Archbishop Gary stated “so many men and women are in
prisons serving sentences that range from a few
months to life. They are not criminals who have
murdered or robbed, but Christians who have been put
on trial for their faith in Christ and found guilty.
It would have been easy to avoid prison by simply
denying their Christian faith. These brothers and
sisters in Christ are literally “doing hard time for
God.”
To launch the project, the Old Catholic Church of
Great Britain will dedicate a segment of its website
www.oldcatholic.co.uk to publish trial details
and prison contact addresses for those “doing hard
time for God” enabling concerned supporters to write
and enter into the fellowship of sufferings with
these Christian prisoners. You will join in “doing
hard time for God” by sharing His burden for those
who suffer for His sake.
It is an important ministry for any member of the
church to raise the global awareness of just how
many Christians are being persecuted in this modern
day world” said Archbishop Gary, “ many believe that
persecution of Christians ended with Ceasar and the
lions, but this project will change that”.
For many of these prisoners, the future is bleak,
being imprisoned in a non-Christian environment with
non-Christian inmates and guards, living by pure
faith. Just imagine what your letter would mean, to
know that someone was aware of your plight, and the
prayerful words of a brother or sister in Christ.
The Christian NGO, OSMTH Magistral Grand Priory of
the Holy Lands has joined the project and is
presently lobbying the United Nations for their aid
and support.
Archbishop Gary Beaver closed the Project Launch
ceremony with the biblical quote “I was in prison,
and you came to me” —-Jesus (Matthew 25:36).
