Advocates For The Persecuted: WHO ARE WE? WHO ARE WE? ================================================================================ houda on 17/09/2007 12:56:00 Our directors include both Americans and native Egyptians in the U.S. and Egypt. Our values reflect: 1. Compassion to all with whom we come in contact, regardless of religious belief. 2. Fidelity and humble service to all those we serve. 3. Fidelity to a willingness to suffer wrongs with a forgiving spirit, and a commitment to conflict resolution and reconciliation. 4. A careful commitment to maintaining confidentiality for the protection of those who may be otherwise harmed by public release of information. 5. A commitment to financial, editorial, and personal integrity. 6. An effort to be as culturally sensitive as possible without compromising our faith. We share a commitment to develop an advocacy organization that will raise public awareness of the need to improve the conditions of religious minorities, including Christians, who suffer human rights abuses in Middle Eastern nations. We will enlist the efforts of governmental authorities, churches, Christian missions, concerned citizens, and those concerned about human rights to bring pressure on these governments in the Middle East to provide their citizens with humane treatment.
