Pray for: Cameroon

God has blessed Cameroon with material resources, relative stability, and a diversity of peoples. Many significant leaders (professional, military, police, political) now follow Christ! This gives hope for change in a society infamous for corruption. Pray that those who steal from the nation would change their ways – or be caught and prevented from doing it any longer – and that people will no longer tolerate corruption, but rather will work together to eradicate it. The best solution to corruption is a transformation of hearts.

Deep divisions of language, faith, and politics lead to tension and violence. Cameroon divides between French and English regions. It also divides between Christian, Muslim, and traditional religions, and between those who hold political power and the opposition. The increasing activity of Islamist groups in the north further threatens peace. Pray for God to raise up reconcilers and peacemakers in this divided land.
