Pray for Luxembourg
In area Luxembourg is the smallest member of the European Community and was founded in 963. It is located between Germany, France and Belgium and has a population of under half a million. Luxembourg City is one of the wealthiest cities in the world, having developed into a banking and administrative centre.

The population are mostly Catholic by tradition and culture as revolutionary changes in the Church elsewhere have largely passed it by and few have clearly heard the gospel in their own language. Pray that they might encounter the living Christ who transforms all who meet Him. The Lėtzebuergesch language is spoken by the majority as their heart language. Most are fluent in French and German, but to have the Bible in Lėtzebuergesch could be the key to helping those who are struggling with commitment to Christ, the Gospel of Mark and the Psalms are now translated. We can be tough on this country but we have no idea what they had to endure through 2 World Wars. Pray for these people.
