Front-Line FaithChristian Persecution Update 2027

Monitored

Rwanda

Though the population of Rwanda is 89 percent Christian, the Rwandan government has become increasingly restrictive of Christian activity in recent years. Front-line workers reported that 5,000 churches were shut down in 2024 alone for failure to comply with government standards. Christians in Rwanda are concerned that growing government control of churches will negatively affect their ability to teach the Scriptures from a sound biblical worldview. Front-line workers are also concerned that developments in Rwanda may spread to surrounding East African nations.

Pray for Rwanda

  • Pray for pastors and evangelists working in dangerous and hard-to-reach areas.
  • Pray for those who have lost loved ones in attacks against Christians.
  • Pray that Christians in hostile areas will boldly proclaim the gospel.
  • Pray for wisdom and boldness as Christians face increasing government control of their churches.
