Over 70% of the population consider themselves non-religious, although many use horoscopes and mix different spiritual ideas. Crime, sexual immorality, substance abuse, depression, and suicide all have notably higher rates today than they did during Communist times.
Prayer
- Pray that God will lift the spiritual heaviness from over Czechia.
- Social changes create new opportunities for ministry. The ageing population and new immigrants (especially Russian speakers, East and Southeast Asians) need loving outreach. Pray that God will raise ministers that will lovingly share the good news of Jesus Christ.
- Pray for evangelicals - the traditional but shrinking Protestant denominations and the smaller, younger groups such as Baptists, Pentecostals and others. Determined, deliberate and loving outreach and evangelism are necessities, as is the prayer that must precede them.
- Many younger people are leaving to work in other lands and there is a low birthrate, and so the population is increasingly aged. There are also increasing numbers of immigrants coming into the country - especially Russian speakers and East and Southeast Asians. Pray for new and specific approaches to ministry that will minister to all these different groups. Pray for a loving and focused outreach tailored to specific group needs and communities.
