The Underground Church: Faith Worth the Risk

Stand with our native Arab missionaries

If you're looking to support our efforts in the Middle East, then we urge you to stand with our native Arab missionaries (many of them former Muslims) as they bring Jesus to refugees and seekers across the area.

Why this work is unlike anything else

In the Middle East, FHK's mission runs through native Arab missionaries — many of them former Muslims who once lived the very beliefs they now help others walk away from. They understand the questions a Muslim seeker asks before they ask them. They know which doors to knock on, which words to use, and which silences to hold. Outsiders can't do this work. They can.

Their primary mission field is the millions of refugees flooding into the cities where our missionaries live. There are four reasons we focus there:

Everything is new

People displaced from everything they've known are unusually open to truth about Jesus.

The scale is staggering

Tens of millions of refugees live in the regions where we work.

Less oversight means real conversations

The community oversight of imams, sheiks, and extended family has been broken by displacement, leaving room for honest conversation that wouldn't be possible at home.

They're victims of religious violence

They've often been hurt by the very religion they came from — fleeing violence carried out by other Muslim groups.

These are urban missions. In a dense city, it's easier to stay unseen, to gather quietly, and to give a new believer the space to follow Jesus before his family knows.

For someone in a remote village hearing about Jesus for the first time, the gospel often arrives to ears that have never heard a competing claim. In the Middle East, it's the opposite. Almost every new believer arrives carrying years of teaching about Jesus that simply isn't true. Before they can grow in Christ, they have to unlearn — and that takes time, careful teaching, and trust. Discipleship here is slower, deeper, and far more costly than most people imagine. Your support is what makes it possible.
