Beautiful but Godly?
The Czech Republic is a beautiful country, but sadly very few people believe in God. Across all of Europe the Czech Republic had the least number of people who believed in God in a 2005 survey by the European Commission. Photo: Prague, capital of Czech Republic.

Atheism Map: On Wikipedia there is also a map for the percentage of people who answered "I don't believe there is any sort of spirit, God or life force" in the same poll.
Please pray for the Czech Republic:
- For the Christians: that God will fill them with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. Pray that they will be strengthened with all power according to God’s glorious might. [Colossians 1v9,11]
- For the people across the nation: that God will rescue them from the dominion of darkness and bring them into the Kingdom of light through his son Jesus Christ. [Colossians 1v12,13]
