Why is Uzbekistan on the 2022 World
Watch List?
Christians
who are a part of non-registered churches may be viewed as “extremists,” and
the government believes church members are spies trying to destroy the
government. A new criminal code was drafted in 2021 that penalizes the
distribution of religious literature, meeting for worship without government permission
and “talking about faith.”
Where is God at work in Uzbekistan?
When
“Aziz” became a Christian, his brother rejected him. His brother tried to burn
down Aziz’s house, and they had no contact for 20 years. But the brother’s heart
seems to be softening, and when he got sick, Aziz visited him and prayed for
him. Now, the brothers have regular contact—showing that even when restoration seems
slow from a human perspective, God is always on the move.
A
recent law in Uzbekistan makes it illegal to “produce, store or import”
unauthorized religious materials
How can I pray with Christians in
Uzbekistan?
Day
1: Pray for Christians who are discriminated against in work or society because
of their faith.
Day
2: Ask God to bring the knowledge of Him to the leaders of Uzbekistan.
Day
3: Pray for Open Doors’ ministry in Central Asia, that Christians across the
region would feel encouraged and strengthened from the help and aid they
receive.
Day
4: Pray for Christians who lose their jobs, or who are required to keep their
faith a secret.
Day
5: Pray for Christians who convert from Islam in Uzbekistan, that they would be
protected and know the peace of God.
Day
6: Ask God to cause authorities to rethink the new religious laws, and instead
open up freedoms for all faiths.
Day
7: Pray that God will bless churches across Central Asia as they grapple with
oppressive regimes.
