Who we are

SAT-7: SAT-7 is a strategic international satellite and digital media network, working to see a growing Church in the Middle East and North Africa, confident in Christian faith and witness, serving the community and contributing to the good of society and culture.SAT-7 International is a network of 24/7 Christian television channels broadcasting a creative mix of programmes, communicating God's love in Arabic, Farsi and Turkish. The majority of programmes are made by Middle Easterners in studios in Lebanon, Istanbul and Egypt, ensuring that Christianity is presented in culturally appropriate ways to the wider population and supporting the Christian community in the region.

SAT-7 UK STRATEGY: SAT-7 UK has grown a faithful supporter base across the UK over the last 25 years. However, we recognise the need to better establish who we are and what we do in the hearts and minds of UK Christians. In this next season we are especially committed to raise our profile and deepen the support and active engagement we receive from existing and a new generation of supporters, to increase the impact of our ministry across the MENA region and in the UK.

SAT-7 UK PEOPLE: SAT-7 UK has a team of around 18 staff (including full and part-time, office-based and home workers). Our office is based in Chippenham, Wiltshire. The staff team meets together every day both those in the office and with those online, for 15 minutes to read the Bible and to pray for the MENA region, SAT-7 staff and programmes, our supporters and for each other. We also have a network of volunteers, who represent SAT-7 in their churches and who give presentations to supporters and at local community and regional events.

SAT-7 FAMILY: We are part of the wider SAT-7 international family and regularly connect online with our international office in Cyprus, our ‘studio’ offices in Beirut, Cairo, Istanbul, and London as well as other ‘support’ offices in Europe, the US and Hong Kong. We also get to meet each other at our annual Partnership Gathering, held in one of the main Middle Eastern office locations; an inspiring event for partners, volunteers and staff.
