Presentation transcript:

In Qatar, there is no acceptable faith other than Islam. THE #27 PLACE WHERE CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION IS WORST In Qatar, there is no acceptable faith other than Islam. Every aspect of society is dictated by Sharia (Islamic law). Converting to Christianity is forbidden. Many people who choose to become a Christian do so outside of the country. Foreigners are only allowed to worship in a designated place outside of the capital. If they’re caught sharing the Gospel with Muslims, they will be prosecuted and banished from the country.

PRAY FOR OUR PERSECUTED FAMILY Pray for Christian migrant workers to respond with love and forgiveness towards those who are cruel to them. Pray that new Christians will have wisdom when they share their faith with Muslim family members. Pray for God to draw many Qataris to Christ, using whatever mediums available in the country.
