World Faiths

Photo of smiling Muslim schoolgirlsWe want people of other faiths to encounter Jesus as we live out His mercy, grace and truth. OM’s response to religious tensions dominating news is one of compassion, not compromise: as we live out transformed lives in the midst of thousands who have never encountered Jesus. Our international teams are demonstrating His love, reconciliation and truth to people from many different world faiths.

Cultural sensitivity

In particular, our long term commitment to Muslim peoples has given us an extensive network of teams with wide experience and understanding of Islamic history and beliefs, language skills and cultural sensitivity. Our teams are also serving Hindus, Buddhists and others.

We recognise the value of making friends and genuinely sharing our lives with others. Spending time talking over cups of tea can break down barriers and lead to exciting conversations about faith.

We are committed to walking alongside individual Christians and fellowships, offering encouragement and support in difficult situations and persecution. We draw new believers together and help rebuild communities of hope and peace. Our vision is to see lives transformed as local believers share Jesus’ love.

Prayer Points

  • Pray for open hearts and minds and an eagerness to hear about Jesus!
  • Pray that God would reveal himself to the millions seeking him through other faiths. Pray that he would grant many dreams of Jesus and enable communities to access the Scriptures.
  • Pray for Christians living in hostile environments. Pray that they would be faithful, brave and united as they undergo persecution.
  • Pray for an increase in workers seeking to reach those of other faiths. Pray for protection, effectiveness and joy in serving.
  • Pray for national church leaders as they lead others through often difficult situations. Pray that they will be godly, pure and filled with the Holy Spirit.

Christians can choose to see great opportunities for the Gospel in the midst of the upheavals aff ecting one-fifth of humanity. Today, more than ever before, together we can demonstrate the love of God and our confidence in His power to transform the lives of millions of Muslims... read more .
