Open Doors originated in 1955, when a young Dutchman started smuggling Bibles to the persecuted Christians in Communist Europe. He became known as Brother Andrew, and his work led to more than six decades of support for the persecuted church.
Open Doors works in more than 70 countries, supplying Bibles, training church leaders, providing practical support and emergency relief, and supporting Christians who suffer persecution and discrimination for their faith. Our U.S. office works to raise awareness of global persecution, mobilizing prayer, support, and action among Christians.
Open Doors continues in the footsteps of its founder, Brother Andrew, in its core value to be "people of the Bible." Despite increased security control and restrictions, Open Doors provides contextualized Christian materials in minority languages. Last year, Open Doors distributed more than one million Bibles and books worldwide.
In 2022, Open Doors also trained more than 3.3 million persecuted Christians across the world. Trainings include leadership and discipleship courses, trauma care and persecution survival seminars.
In 2021 Open Doors helped 685,887 persecuted Christians with emergency relief, community development, education, and medical care.
Much of the urgent relief went to persecuted Christians in countries hard-hit by Covid-19.

We mobilize prayer support for Christians suffering persecution and discrimination for their faith. And we encourage the global Church to stand with them in prayer so that they know they are not alone. Brother Andrew, founder of Open Doors always said, “Our prayers can go where we cannot.”
The organization was previously led by Interim CEO, Lisa Pearce. In 2023, Ryan Brown was hired as CEO and Sarah Cunningham was hired as COO.
