Antigua and Barbuda are made up of three small islands in the Caribbean. The economy is tourism, the people are mostly African Caribbean. It was a British colony for 349 years before gaining its independence in 1981. They have complete freedom of religion, which is comprised of almost all Christian Protestant. Though small, they face similar issues that many of us have here in the U.S. There is complacency, moral and spiritual challenges, and strong ties to money laundering, drug dealing, violence and gambling. Pray for the safety of the people and that they will not yield to those things […]

They are 95% Christian Protestant Evangelical. Yet there are challenges. The churches are declining and the void is being filled with Mormonism, which has exposed the mainline churches nominalism of the past – a philosophy of abstractness and being in name only. Pray that the churches will have revival and that they will stand up for the truth of genuine love and peace that comes from knowing […]
