Open Doors is the world’s largest outreach to persecuted Christians in the most high-risk places. You have most probably guessed that the “heroes” of the “Heroes Race” are not the runners, but those whose faith remains unshaken even when faced with severe persecution.

Last year, IBC together with Belgian and French churches through Open Doors helped develop literacy skills of 673 Christians in Pakistan.

This year we hope to give our brothers and sisters in Christ in Nigeria the opportunity to be treated in hospital. The goal is to actually build a hospital there. Hopefully, we will be able, together with other churches in Belgium and France, to raise the necessary funds.

Please visit IBC’s Heroes Race group website  and give cheerfully to those who have the lowest donations on their ALVARUM account, so that everyone is allowed to run the race on the 14th of May 2017. 

For 6 Km race we need a minimum of 250 Euros per runner. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to transfer money from one runner’s account to another. The amount must be on the runners‘ accounts by 7th May latest. Thank you!
