Open Doors Live | Melbourne Event

Open Doors Live is back!

Come and hear from persecuted believers first-hand as they share their stories and experiences from the field. This is a unique opportunity to be encouraged, challenged, and inspired by what God is doing in some of the most difficult places in the world.

Together, we will gather to worship freely, pray faithfully, and stand in unity with our brothers and sisters who risk so much for their faith.

Through real-life testimonies and updates, you will gain a deeper understanding of the reality many Christians face today, and how your support is making a difference.

Whether you have been connected with Open Doors for years or are new to our work, this free event is a chance to stand with the global Church and be part of their story.
