Pray for the Republic of MacedoniaPopulation: 2 million with 79 people per sq km. Religion: 65% Christian 31% Muslim Answer to Prayer The evangelical church in Macedonia is one of the fastest growing in Europe and displays growing unity across its theological breadth. Churches are ambitious in their outreach and church planting goals, and they minister across ethnic and national boundaries to share the gospel with their neighbours, a remarkable feat given the Balkanization of the region. Challenge for Prayer Macedonia’s ethnic composition dominates its political and social existence, where segregation is more prevalent than harmony. Economic difficulties cause significant emigration and urban pull; many of the 2,000 villages are dwindling or disappearing altogether. Pray for wisdom for the government, and pray that the divided communities might find ways to build their nation together.
