About iReach Global

Empowering Africa's Persecuted to SHINE!The persecution of Christians in Africa is one of the great humanitarian crises of our time. Across the continent, believers face unimaginable hardship -- social, economic, spiritual, and physical challenges -- because of their faith.And the problem shows no signs of slowing, as recent world events have emboldened extremists to make life even more difficult for those who follow Jesus.That's why iReach Global exists, to engage persecuted Christians and Jesus seekers who live in some of Africa's darkest corners -- equipping and empowering them to shine the love of Jesus into the darkness.Through small-group community support, microfinance, and technology, these men and women are finding hope, joy, and the encouragement they need to share God's love in culturally relevant ways, and shine His light on those who are living in darkness.When these men and women truly embrace God’s love and feel confident and equipped to share it with others, they’ll turn up the light among the least-reached peoples of the world.
