Spiritual Landscape in Nigeria
Nigeria has a huge Christian population, which makes up around half of the total….but almost all of the rest are Muslim. They live predominantly in the north and, despite some ongoing challenges, that is where much of our ministry is focussed. Religious identity is often tied to ethnicity and region and can often spark tension.
Please pray
- For increased efforts, fresh approaches and more workers to reach Muslims in Nigeria while the door is open (John 9:4), especially in the north
- For effective, contextualised ministry to growing numbers of Muslim-background believers
- For revival in the national church and an increasing passion for gospel-focused ministry in Nigeria and beyond
- For witness workers to be able to raise adequate support to continue Fulani ministry in Nigeria
- For persecuted believers to endure hardship, receive trauma healing and practise love and forgiveness
- For our urgent need for theological educators, medical professionals, educational consultants and teachers
- For the establishment of a new vocational school in Kano to facilitate relationship-building with Muslims
- For the strategic development of our new MK school in Kano
