Solidarity with the Persecuted Church (SPC) builds solidarity between Christian communities that live in freedom and those that face religious persecution.

[SPC @spc_on_x]

America's first freedom, religious liberty remains a lifeline for millions of Christians facing persecution around the world.

We invite you to watch this timely panel from @BFranklinFellow's Freedom 250 Symposium, co-organized with @VoCommunism and @RFInstitute, featuring @spc_on_x Board Vice President Greg Gross as one of the speakers. The discussion explores why international religious freedom should remain a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy and national security, not only as a founding principle of the American experiment, but also as a practical means of advancing peace, human dignity, and the protection of vulnerable faith communities.

As Solidarity with the Persecuted Church continues to stand with Christians suffering for their faith, this conversation offers important historical context and timely insights into why religious liberty matters today.

As we celebrate Independence Day, especially on America’s 250th birthday, we give thanks for the blessings of liberty—including the freedom to worship according to conscience. Today we also remember the millions of Christians around the world who continue to face persecution for their faith, and we pray that the gift of religious freedom may one day be theirs as well. From all of us at Solidarity with the Persecuted Church, happy Fourth of July! #Freedom250 #JulyFourth #religiousfreedom

SPC’s symposium at the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See in Rome, featuring Ambassador @BrianBurchUSA and SPC President Steven Wagner, was covered by EWTN—highlighting persecution of Christians in Nigeria. https://t.co/OLvHDqRYq3

In various parts of the world, Christians suffer discrimination and persecution. I think especially of Bangladesh, Nigeria, Mozambique, Sudan, and other countries from which we frequently hear of attacks on communities and places of worship. God is a merciful Father who desires peace among all His children! I accompany in prayer the families of Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where in recent days there has been a massacre of civilians. Let us pray that all violence may cease and that believers may work together for the common good.

The conversation outlines paths to achieving dialogue in the face of conflict and persecution. We sought Fr. Avelino's insights because interdenominational solidarity is essential to supporting persecuted Christians in Nigeria—currently SPC’s primary focus for advocacy and aid.

Tune in for a new installment of SPC Conversations. SPC president Steven Wagner and SPC Board vice president Greg Gross sat down with Fr. Avelino Gonzalez for a profound exploration of interdenominational and interfaith dialogue. https://t.co/xE2DHWS3cJ

We applaud Amb. Burch, who is a friend of SPC, for speaking out on this critical issue.

Yesterday, in a powerful interview, U.S. ambassador to the Holy See, Brian Burch raised awareness of the actions that the U.S. administration is taking to confront the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. https://t.co/5fyn4fWl77

BREAKING NEWS: SPC applauds President Trump's designation of Nigeria as a "country of particular concern"

[SPC @spc_on_x]

While the decision was the president's alone, SPC president Steven Wagner and vice president Greg Gross met with senior State Department officials earlier this week to encourage CPC designation.

[SPC @spc_on_x]

From the letter... "Across Nigeria’s north, innocent Muslims and Christians, alike, are brutally victimized... (...) Significantly, for Christians, Nigeria is singled out as currently the world’s most deadly country (...)"

[SPC @spc_on_x]

Today President Trump received a letter from multiple organizations and public figures, all encouraging the Administration to designate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern. SPC prayerfully signed the letter.

@VigilantFox We are glad to see that the unspeakable anti-Christian violence in Nigeria is being more widely recognized. SPC (https://t.co/1NvsKCSnhH) helps Christian communities in Nigeria through advocacy and by funding projects on the ground in partnership with local Christian leaders.

Bill Maher delivers a surprising moment on air as he calls out the slaughter of CHRISTIANS in Nigeria that the media refuses to cover.

“If you don’t know what’s going on in Nigeria, your media sources SUCK,” Maher said.

“You are in a BUBBLE. I’m not a Christian, but they are systematically killing the Christians in Nigeria.”

“They’ve killed over 100,000 since 2009. They’ve burned 18,000 churches… They are literally attempting to wipe out the Christian population of an entire country. Where are the kids protesting this?” he asked.

Maher’s diatribe drew a huge reaction from the crowd, and a big THANK YOU from Rep. Nancy Mace for bringing it up.

“Absolutely,” Maher responded.

We applaud Sec. Rubio’s statement: "(...) you have these Islamist jihadist elements (...) that deliberately target (...) Christians, especially in Nigeria (...) what we want to do is work closely with Nigerian authorities to prevent that.” https://t.co/7zufCA8sAW
