Protests inspired by the Arab Spring forced the king to adopt a number of political reforms in 2011. The moderate Islamic Justice and Development Party (PJD) won a huge victory in parliamentary elections at the end of 2011 and, based on new constitutional procedures, must now provide a Prime Minister. Persecution comes mainly from Muslim fundamentalist influence on the authorities and society. Foreign Christians have some freedom to practice their faith, but Muslims who convert to Christianity are treated as criminals and face rejection from friends and family.
Pray:
- The government bans all proselytising. Pray for wisdom and boldness for Christians in sharing their faith.
- The distribution of Christian materials is prohibited. Pray that Christians may have access to Bibles and study materials.
- For discipleship training and Christian radio programs organized by Open Doors.
