Nigeria: Faith Under Fire

Attacks on Christians Sharply Rise

Nigerian believers are facing one of the worst crises for Christians in the world. In the northern and central regions, extremist attacks, kidnappings, and village raids are common, leaving families displaced, children traumatized, and entire communities grieving.

ICR stands with the Nigerian church by supporting widows, caring for orphans, resettling displaced families, and providing spiritual, emotional, and practical help through trusted local partners. With food, shelter, education, trauma care, and long-term support, we are working to strengthen a resilient church that continues to shine the hope of Christ in a region marked by suffering.
