    John Ghanim

    John Ghanim, originally from Yemen, pursued studies in business administration. Raised in a devout Muslim environment, he embarked on a profound spiritual journey that led him to Christianity. During a pilgrimage to Mecca, John began questioning his faith, ultimately leading to his conversion to Christianity while residing as a refugee in Greece. His public declaration of faith resulted in significant personal sacrifices, including estrangement from his family and exile from his homeland. Despite these challenges, John has become a prominent Christian influencer and evangelist on social media, sharing his testimony and advocating for religious freedom. He has also participated in international forums, such as the UK Parliament's International Ministerial Conference on Freedom of Religion or Belief, to highlight the plight of religious minorities in Yemen.
