THE #43 PLACE WHERE CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION IS WORST Life in Kazakhstan is heavily influenced by Islamic standards and laws. Many citizens believe “to be a Kazakh is to be Muslim”. Because of this, those who leave Islam to follow Jesus end up isolated from their communities. There are around 15 000 Believers from a Muslim Background living in Kazakhstan. Many of them run the risk of being locked up by their own families.

PRAY FOR OUR PERSECUTED FAMILY Pray for those in Kazakhstan who are in prison or harassed for leaving Islam to follow Christ. Pray that they will have the strength to endure and will have the love of Christ to forgive their persecutors. Pray that those in positions of power will have their hearts softened towards believers. Pray that they will have a desire to meet Jesus.
