The Kurds, numbering approximately 34 million, are an Iranic ethnic group native to the mountainous region of Kurdistan, spanning southeastern Türkiye, northwestern Iran, northern Iraq, and northern Syria. They are the largest ethnic group worldwide without a state of their own. Despite their significant population, the Kurds remain largely unreached, with less than 2% identifying as evangelical Christians. This status is influenced by their deep-rooted Islamic and cultural traditions, which present challenges to evangelism efforts.

Lord Holy Spirit, we pray for Your mighty move among the Kurdish community. LORD, break down all cultural and religious barriers and open the hearts of the Kurds to the Gospel, in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, Amen (The Holy Bible, Psalm 2:8).

Lord Holy Spirit, equip and empower the missionaries working among the unreached Kurdish community.  Anoint them more with Your Gifts for this harvest field (The Holy Bible, Matthew 9:37-38).
