All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you Psalm 22:27 (ESV):

Saudi Arabia’s record on religious freedom and human rights is probably the world’s worst. People of faiths other than Islam can live in Saudi Arabia, but they cannot practise their religion openly or even gather privately. Restrictions limit women in driving, voting, work, and their presence outside the home. Authorities watch Christian expatriates all the time, and those caught meeting even in homes can face beatings, prison, expulsion, or even execution.

1. Pray for strength, wisdom, and courage for the community of foreign believers. Pray also for a witness to Christ among all foreign workers, that many might come to Jesus while in this land.

2. Pray for economic stability and job creation in Saudi Arabia, asking God to help reduce the gap between the rich and poor and to provide new opportunities for the youth. Pray that the reliance on oil exports and foreign labour diminishes, and that the nation can develop a sustainable economy that benefits all citizens.

3. Pray for the safety and perseverance of Saudi believers who risk their lives to follow Christ. Ask God to protect them from persecution and that they may find ways to meet in safety, access God’s Word, and witness to others. Pray for a miracle that allows for the legalization of Christianity in Saudi Arabia.

4. Pray for expatriates living in Saudi Arabia, that they may find freedom, dignity, and safety in their work environments. Pray for the flourishing of the Gospel among foreign workers and that they may experience Christ's love and peace in their lives, leading many to come to faith.

5. Pray for the Christian expatriate community facing strict surveillance and persecution. Ask God to grant them courage, strength, and wisdom as they navigate their faith in a challenging environment. Pray for opportunities for meaningful interaction with Saudis and that other Arabs may develop a burden to share the Gospel with them.
