Gibraltar
Gibraltar (34,000) is a British overseas territory since its capture in 1704, but self-governing since 2007. Most of the population are Catholic, but other denominations have churches. Evangelicals/charismatics have small numbers, but grow. Significant numbers of Moroccans work here, as well as Jewish and Hindu communities. Gibraltar has a good position for outreach to the region (southern Spain and North Africa), as well as to locals, immigrants, and foreign tourists. Pray that local congregations will gain vision for outreach!
