Pray for Southeast Asian followers of Jesus

There are many followers of Jesus in Southeast Asia. For historical and cultural reasons, however, they often do not serve their Muslim neighbors.

  • Pray that local believers would become aware of the spiritual and physical needs of their Muslim neighbors.
  • Pray that local believers would make friends with their Muslim neighbors, boldly and sensitively sharing the Good News and providing practical help where possible.
  • Pray that the wounds of persecution and oppression that many followers of Jesus have experienced will heal, and that hurt, fear and anger would be replaced by forgiveness, compassion and love.
