Unreached People Group: Serbians in Kosovo

Prayer Requests — Tue, 22 May 2012 06:00:29 +0000

Did you notice? Something has happened – something unfavorable at least for a few. The winds of change have blown against the Serbians in Kosovo. Once part of greater Serbia the Republic of Kosovo declared independence in February 2008, making Serbians living there only a small minority of the population. The Serbians stand resolutely against the declaration of statehood for Kosovo, and continue to see themselves as part of a pan-Serbian state. Most are strong adherents of the Serbian Orthodox Church and a minority is Roman Catholic, but few have a saving faith in Christ. Intercede that a new wind will sweep over the Serbians in Kosovo – a wind stirred by the life-giving breath of the Holy Spirit.
