- Macau is the first Christian territory in Asia to become non-Christian since the Muslim conquest in West Asia over 600 years ago. 95% of the population were Catholic in 1600 but fewer than 5% are Christian today. Pray for believers to win back this territory for the savior.
- Macau’s reputation as a “city of sin” is well founded. Gambling revenues surpass even those of Las Vegas and are still growing. Pray against materialism, greed, prostitution and substance abuse in this nation
- Pray for Christian ministries in Macau to grow in their influence and transforming the society
