"Prayer is the way we partner with God to achieve the impossible."
Mark Batterson
THE NATION ALGERIA
Algeria, located in North Africa, gained independence from France in 1962 after a long and bloody struggle. The country has a rich history dating back to ancient times, with various civilizations, such as the Berbers, Phoenicians, Romans, and Ottomans, leaving their marks on the region.
In recent years, Algeria has been facing several challenges. One of the most significant crises is the ongoing economic struggle. The country relies heavily on oil and natural gas revenues, and the decline in global oil prices since 2014 has severely impacted the economy. This has led to high unemployment rates, especially among the youth, and a growing public debt.

PRAYERS FOR ALGERIA
➢ Pray for God’s word to get into the hands, homes, and hearts of the Algerians.

➢ Pray for equipped and compassionate Algerian believers to proclaim Jesus throughout the country.
Ask the Lord to intervene in their economic, political and social crises to bring about employment for several youths who are unemployed.
