Kawahia in Sudan

Pray for the Kawahia people group in Sudan. They are part of the larger Sudanese Arab ethnic group and are unreached. Please pray that the gospel will reach these people in a way that resonates with their culture, and pray that their hearts will be open to receive Jesus. Ask God to call more Christians to share the good news with the Kawahia people.

Moroccan Arabs

Many from this distinct Arab group live in Europe and the USA. In these nations, they have access to churches and the full Bible in their language, yet they remain unreached. Pray that the Lord will call more Christians to share Jesus’ love with Moroccan Arabs, so that their lives will be transformed and the good news will spread to their friends and families across northern Africa.

The Shawiya Berbers need Christ

The Shawiya Berber people are found in six countries across the world: Algeria, Morocco and some countries in Europe. They mainly live in Algeria, their primary religion is Islam, and ther language is called Tachawit. Pray for Christians in Europe to seek to reach the Shawiya, as it is difficult to do so in other countries. Pray that the Holy Spirit will work in many hearts to reveal who Christ is, and that wherever they are, these people will hear the gospel of Jesus Christ and respond in faith.

The urban poor in the Middle East, Africa and Asia

The urban poor comprise one of the biggest and fastest growing sectors of society across much of the globe, particularly in Africa and Asia where most Muslims live. One estimate is that there are already more than 250 million Muslims living in slums, shanty towns, and poor urban neighbourhoods across the world; a number which will grow rapidly in the coming decades. Pray for the millions of Muslims living in city slums, that Jesus indeed would become their Lord; for the millions more who will join them in the cities in the coming decades; for many more workers to go and preach the good news in poor urban Muslim neighbourhoods, and for many new communities of Christ-followers to be established.

Political transition brings challenges to Christians

Christian communities are facing specific challenges in these times of political transition including: the requirement for Christian schools to be open on Sundays; interference by the National Intelligence and Security Service (NISS) in the operation of churches; confiscation of church properties by the NISS or people related to the NISS and court cases against Christians accusing them of being foreign spies and working for foreign governments. Pray for further progress in addressing these specific challenges faced by the church in Sudan and that any new political situation would allow Christians to worship freely.
