Presentation transcript:

THE #39 PLACE WHERE CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION IS WORST The Church in China faces many challenges including a lack of trained leaders, increasing materialism and urbanisation. Life for Believers from a Muslim Background in the Muslim minority state of Xinjiang, is extremely difficult. Pressure and violence is also increasing in Tibet. Christians with a Muslim or Tibetan Buddhist background face strong opposition from the government, their families and communities. They are often isolated and lack fellowship.

PRAY FOR OUR PERSECUTED FAMILY Pray that the Chinese churches will find resources and biblical leadership to support their growing numbers. Pray that the Christians from a Muslim and Tibetan background will find comfort and strength in fellowship. Pray that the Communist authorities will recognise and embrace the value of their Christian population.
