Tunisia

PRAYER FOR THIS COUNTRY

Bless Tunisia, in the mighty Name of Jesus, is going through degradation of the political and socio-economic situations and desperately needs good, strong, and democratic leadership.

Bless the Black African foreigners in Tunisia, as they are facing violent attacks and collective expulsions due to skin color discrimination and have lost money and personal belongings.

Bless the Tunisian Churches and Christian Believers to impact the lifestyle of Tunisians dominated by Islam with the love of Jesus and the message of salvation.

Pray for Churches enduring stiff persecution and threats against gathering for worship to share the liberating Gospel of Christ and be victorious through Him (The Bible, 2 Corinthians 3:17).

MORE ABOUT THIS COUNTRY

Tunisians of the modern times are the descendants of indigenous Berbers and people from numerous civilizations that have invaded or migrated to Tunisia many years back. The Arab Spring has caused the country to have one of the most progressive and open societies in the Arab world. Today the Tunisians are frustrated with high unemployment, corruption, political oppression, and poor living conditions in the country. As people have started protesting the government had to make a number of changes. But it has made way for protests all across the Arab world. The new constitution has paved the way for progress in many avenues. The government is still struggling with huge challenges like unemployment of youth and dwindling economic status in the country. The Christian Believers are constantly facing widespread threatening situations. The security officers are continuously monitoring their gathering for worship.
