I Have Prayed
United Kingdom
United Kingdom Capital: London
Border Countries: Ireland
Protestants may think of the United Kingdom as the home of John Wycliffe and John Knox, as well as the 1904 Welsh Revival. Despite the nation's rich historical roots, today its peoples are largely uncommitted to faith. More than 70 percent of the Welsh, British, and Scottish people claim affiliation with the traditional, established Protestant churches. Yet only about seven percent attend services, and the number is smaller in large cities. Immigrants from many countries now call the United Kingdom home, which makes it a place where several religions are practiced and tolerated. One of the largest religious groups is Islam; Muslims make up 2.7 percent of the population.

Welsh congregations have sent missionaries around the world, and they are making an impact for Christ. In the UK, evangelical leaders have started two initiatives to reach out to a generation of unchurched youth. 24-7 Prayer began in 1999 in England when young people decided to try to pray nonstop for a month. The movement has spread to other age groups and to other nations with a goal of transforming the world through prayer. Many youth have experienced the claims of Christ through a worship movement initiated by popular bands and speakers. God is also moving among immigrants, and large churches are established among them.
London is a strategic place in which to minister because of its worldwide influence. Britons need to experience the Gospel's relevance and transforming power, especially amid the social turmoil in their nation. Believers who live out their faith can have an impact throughout the UK; in turn, its peoples could touch the world for Christ. Working in urban centers and focusing on inner-city issues is one way to partner with believers for ministry. North Americans can also make a difference by focusing on a particular group of immigrants since many UK cities have large populations of people from other nations.
  1. Pray for a national spiritual awakening and that God will give evangelicals a renewed vision and faith in God's ability to change their nation for His glory.
  2. Pray that believers in Protestant churches will share how their lives have been changed and spark a revival in these churches worldwide.
