Apostasy Law Campaign Extended

The petition calls on national governments to support all efforts by Muslims to have the apostasy law abolished, so that Muslims who choose to leave their faith are no longer liable to the death sentence or any other penalty.

We are pleased to report that at the time of writing 41,173 people have signed the petition. Please do continue to encourage people at your church and other Christian friends to sign it. Also if you have any signed petition sheets that have not yet been sent in to us, could you please forward them to your national Barnabas Fund office (contact address) as soon as possible? Thank you very much.
