Kosovo is a disputed territory in the Balkans bordering Central Serbia, Macedonia, Albania and Montenegro. Its largest city and capital is Pristina. Within the last couple of months, Christians in Kosovo have been victims of what has been described as the increasing influence of radical Muslim groups. Pastor Artur Krasniqi said a church member from a town in the western part of the country was recently brutally beaten. Two days after this attack Kosovo police arrested a group of five people believed responsible. In addition, Krasniqi added, one of his church's buildings in Pristina was recently vandalized. He is worried about Islamic influence. ‘Muslim radicalization of our country has become our serious concern, as it will impact not only our democratic values and freedoms but our safety and well being too.’ Krasniqi asked that those concerned about the plight faced by his fellow believers write to both the Prime Minister and the President of Kosovo to express their concerns.

Pray: for the security and freedoms of our Christian brothers and sisters in Kosovo. (Jdg.10:12)
