Czech Republic
Czech Republic Capital: Prague
Border Countries: Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Germany
Czechs have been called Europe's most fervently secular people. According to a recent European Union survey, only 19 percent of Czechs believe in God at all, and less than two percent follow Christ. The vast majority are staunch atheists. In fact, many see religion as a type of crutch for the simple or weak and atheism as the pinnacle of enlightenment. Most Czechs have been taught that only people who are too weak to stand on their own believe in religion. The resistance to faith is partly due to the devastating results of religious wars that divided the country throughout history.

The Czech Republic is home to some dynamic Christian leaders who greatly desire to reach their communities and country with Christ's love. Evangelical churches across the nation are trying various creative approaches to show people that they can have a vibrant relationship with God. One congregation would like to plant a church in their community, and they are already involved in many types of ministry toward that end. Evangelistic outreaches through English Bible studies and English camps have proven effective to open people's hearts to Christ's love while giving something practical to the community. American-themed outreaches such as a Thanksgiving dinner gathering have also helped believers form relationships and discuss matters of faith.
Ministry opportunities abound in Czech Republic, and many take place in partnership with local believers, including: offering mentoring and relational evangelism to youth; helping Czech leaders train and equip others to lead; using technology to train leaders to help them be stronger witnesses in their communities; teaching English at a ministry center or Christian camp; and working long term in evangelism, discipleship, and church planting. Is God calling you to reach out in this atheistic nation?
  1. Pray that God will build up Christian leaders who are bold and rooted in their faith.
  2. Pray that non-Christians who attend Bible studies and outreaches will have their eyes opened to the truth of the Gospel.
