Oman has changed rapidly since the new Sultan took power in 1970 – pray that as people adapt to new ideas and change they would be open to spiritual change as well.

Nearly all Christians in Oman are from other countries. In particular there are active churches that are seeing more and more Asians being saved. Pray the Christians in Oman would be witness to Jesus love and life in all they do.
