Challenges for Prayer

  1. Greece’s economic meltdown, and the protests and riots that followed, shook the country’s foundations. Pray this difficult time will drive the nation to cry out to God.

  2. Pray that national churches might develop in the areas of prayer, outreach, and church planting.

  3. Pray that Protestants and Greek Orthodox will put aside distrust, and will work together for God’s Kingdom.

  4. Pray they might find ways to communicate the need for salvation, but with respect to the legacy and heritage of Orthodoxy.

  5. Pray for the many Greeks who have never clearly heard the gospel.
