"After being confronted by the persecution of believers in a talk given by an Open Doors area representative, I was unable to put it out of my head. I realised the Lord was wanting me to make others aware of this and that is how I became a church representative." - Elizabeth

We will help you by training you in presenting Open Doors' ministry and inspiring a response. We will keep you equipped with key information, resources and updates. We will be on hand to offer advice and support and listen to your feedback. We will link you with other local volunteers via your Team Leader (where possible) and reimburse reasonable expenses such as travelling costs.
