Praying for Europe

  1. Great swathes of Central and Western Europe are truly post-Christian — where committed Christian remnants are small in number, low in confidence and marginalized. In these areas, the Church's battle against secularization and social irrelevance has been lost. What little faith remains is confined to private belief. These regions are some of the most devoid of spiritual life in the world and urgently need to be re-evangelized. Pray for a new wave of mission to post-Christian Europe, and for the re-awakening and revitalization of the Christian faith. It may fall to the vibrant faith of African, Asian, and Latin American migrant churches to provide a new spiritual impetus to these regions.
  2. Many European countries and peoples possess a strong and ancient Christian tradition, but very few evangelicals. These include Orthodox and Catholic heartlands such as Serbia, Poland, Montenegro, North Macedonia, the Czech Republic, Austria, Greece, the Basque region, Belarus, Georgia, Russia and more. In 17 nations in Europe, evangelicals make up less than 1% of the population. And of these, five have a percentage of less than 0.25%. Pray for the planting of many vibrant, witnessing groups of believers in these lands.
  3. Unreached peoples. Over 400 peoples live within Europe's countries; nearly 250 of them can be regarded as only partially evangelized at best and often are completely un-evangelized. Of these, the majority are immigrant or refugee peoples for whom specialized outreach is needed, including:
    1. Muslim ethnic groups from the Middle East, North Africa, sub-Saharan Africa and the Balkans.
    2. The Jewish remnant.
    3. The many ethnic minorities of the Russian Federation.
    4. The Chinese, who number over one million in Europe.
    5. Asians from South and Southeast Asia, especially in Western Europe.

Pray also for the formation of missional networks that seek to effectively witness to these groups; pray that European believers would gain a greater burden for the lost on their own doorstep.
