叙利亚拥有历史悠久的基督徒群体,他们的信仰在一定程度上是开放的。但其他宗派的基督徒可能面临巨大的危险。
具有某些意识形态的团体接管叙利亚的后果仍然可见。大量基督徒离开原籍地,作为国内流离失所者前往其他基督教占多数的地区,或已经离开该国。虽然一些基督徒已经返回重建他们的生活和社区,但人数仍然比以前少得多。
Lord, we pray for Christians in Syria who have been forced from their communities. Bring them hope and comfort. We remember those who love You but face strong opposition and danger - give them courage and let them know Your care. After so many years of turmoil, we pray that Syria would finally have a fair, stable government, peace and justice. In Jesus' name, amen.
