Pray for South Asian Peoples Over 1.6 billion South Asians represent nations, tribes and peoples who do not know Jesus.

Pray for India The 1.1 billion people of India are Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Sikh, and Muslim with a Christian minority.

Pray for Nepal 80% of the people follow the Hindu religion. The second largest religion is Buddhism, and people travel from all over to visit the birthplace of Buddha.

Pray for Pakistan Nearly all of the 168 million people in Pakistan are Muslim.

Pray for Bhutan This Buddhist kingdom that practices democracy, incorporates Buddhism into every aspect of life. Prayer flags, prayer wheels and fortress monasteries remain a part of the landscape.

Pray for Bangladesh Among the 149 million people of Bangladesh, most follow Islam and all proudly speak Bangla, which they fought to use.

Pray for Sri Lanka This mainly Buddhist island nation exports tea, coffee and cinnamon. While a Christian presence has existed for 500 years, only 6% of Sri Lankans are believers.

Pray for Maldives In this nation of 400,000 people spread across 200 inhabited islands, only Islam is allowed, and there are no churches. The divorce rate is the highest in the world.

Pray for Muslims Muslims hope to enter heaven by practicing the five pillars of Islam and doing good works. One-fourth of the nearly 2 billion Muslims in the world live in South Asia.

Pray for Hindus There are over 900 million Hindus in the world. They worship a total of 330 million gods and goddesses, from whom they seek power and blessing.
