No Instagram. No YouTube. No Spotify. No gaming. No TV. No internet. No Netflix. No Snapchat. No WhatsApp. Could you cope? Prove it.

Silence your screens to stand with Christian women and girls who face hidden and unseen persecution, violence and intimidation because of their faith in Jesus and their gender.

Semira and her mum live in Eritrea. Recently, Semira's dad was arrested for attending an illegal prayer meeting. Hes been imprisoned and has been given no release date. But despite threats and intimidation, Semira hasn't given up on Jesus. Her mum explains.

"She was given three warnings from the school for sharing her faith and she was told not to talk to any children even during school breaks.

"One day some of her fellow students threw rocks at her and she got hit in the stomach. They regularly tell her that she doesnt deserve to be their friend. Sometimes they also throw rocks at the house."

"My daughter is never scared of the persecution anymore Even if they keep hurting her physically, she doesnt care. She always says, God wont let me down. I am ready until death to follow Him.

Join the Blackout to help others like Semira and her mum who know the cost of following Jesus.

Although the official Blackout weekend has now happened, you can still take part and do a Blackout whenever you like!
