Praying for the UnreachedSýnishorn
More than 3 billion people worldwide don’t have access to local churches, pastors, or Bibles in their native languages. They need to hear the good news! Join believers from around the world as we pray to reach those who’ve never heard the gospel.
Central Asia includes the “-stans” (“stan” means “place of”) as well as Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia. Christianity once flourished here and Armenia was the first country to officially declare itself Christian. Eastern Orthodox and other ancient churches are still present, as are some indigenous evangelical churches. The region is predominantly Muslim. The small minority of evangelical Christians face some opposition from Eastern Orthodox institutions, Islamist groups, and governments. The largest unreached people groups in the region — including Turks, Persians, Uzbeks, Kazakhs, and Azerbaijanis — comprise tens of millions of people and are mostly Muslim.
PRAYING FOR CENTRAL ASIA
- Pray that God will reveal Himself through dreams, visions, and miracles.
- Pray for indigenous churches to grow, and for God to raise native pastors and church planters.
- Pray for encouragement, boldness, and faithfulness for believers facing persecution.
- Pray for revival among ancient, traditional churches in this region.
