In Bangladesh, dozens of pastors and evangelists struggle to safely provide Scripture, a place of worship, and basic needs for their congregations, as well as outreach to their communities. During the cold season many homeless Christians are injured trying to keep warm near street fires, when a simple blanket or jacket could prevent this.

After decades of living in fear and persecution, thousands of Burma’s refugees are finally living in peace and freedom in the United States. In 2009, CFI established the Freedom Inn resettlement center. This renovated motel has become a vibrant and dynamic community. Christian Freedom International’s Freedom Inn is a model for immigrant assimilation.

Since 2014, Nearly 11,000 Pakistani Christians fled to Bangkok, Thailand, most of them living an underground existence in some of the city’s poorest neighborhoods—slums in fact. The Christian refugees are forced to live in Thailand illegally on expired visas and passports. In the midst of this humanitarian crisis, Christian Freedom International is helping the Christian refugees survive in the shadows of Bangkok. We have a micro-factory that helps provides an income for families. Our sponsorship program for refugee families delivers funds for housing and essential needs. We assist with medical expenses, often for significant health problems. We provide food, medicine, and essential aid. We launched a remarkable initiative to provide an education for school age children through a small “micro-school”. Without our help, these bright children, as illegals, do not go to school at all. This new program is already producing amazing results.

As part of their leadership & missionary training, CFI students from Victory Bible Academy bring relief aid, medical supplies, and Bibles to endangered Karen Christian villages inside Burma. They include Sunday School and VBS programs for village children. The political situation, and military unrest in Burma force Karen Christians, and all villagers, in the region to be prepared to flee into the jungle at a moment’s notice. Crops, families, homes, & livestock are all at risk, every day. Our Victory mission trips bring hope, joy, and the comfort that they are not forgotten.  Karen backpack medics are the inspiration for the CFI logo, as our medic supply program is an original cornerstone of the ministry of CFI.

At Victory Bible Academy, near MaeSot Thailand, our students are persecuted Karen Christians from inside Burma and the refugee camps in Thailand. Victory students train to become pastors, evangelists, missionaries, worship leaders, church assistants, and to gain a structured knowledge of the Word of God. Many complete their education and return to Burma to serve and to give back to their communities. In our 2 year program students study Scripture and English, learn practical skills such as computer/IT, & financial management, while enjoying Sports and Music.We incorporate vocational training programs of silk-screening, sewing, weaving, agriculture, and food service in obedience to the Scriptural standard of 2 Thess 3:8-12. We believe in equipping the future missionaries with the ability to provide a stable future for themselves, their families, their churches, and their communities.
