Population: About 80 million people.

Religious freedom guaranteed in the constitution. The Catholic and Lutheran Churches are established churches but not formally state churches as such. They collaborate with the government in religious education, media and such and benefit from state-levied taxation on their behalf.The high Christian numbers below are often those only nominally affiliated and who have not opted out of this taxation system.There is increased awareness of other religious options but also increasing suspicion of much of organized religion. Post-9/11, there is a great public interest in the Christian way as an alternative and counterbalance to Islam. Evangelicals are much more prominent than ever before in media and politics. 

Prayer list:
  • Pray for God to raise up leaders who will hold fast to righteousness and strong moral values despite opposition and temptation to compromise. Pray for both strong leaders in the Church and in politics!
  • Pray for the eastern part of the country which is characterized by high unemployment, economic malaise, continued emigration, social and spiritual emptiness and growing racism directed toward immigrant minorities moving in. Pray for solutions, changes and people to be saved!
  • Many churches are declining. Pray for the Holy Spirit to set the churches on fire, so they willreach to the lost! Pray for revival to Germany! 
  • While many German churches decline, congregations are springing up among African, Asian and Latino populations. Pray that their dynamism and spiritual favour might have an impact beyond their own languages and ethnic groups.
  • Unity is a great challenge facing believers. Besides the Protestant-Catholic and liberal-conservative divides, there is also long-standing suspicion between conservative evangelical and Pentecostal/charismatic groups. Pray for genuine unity within diversity rather than insistence on uniformity, and pray that recent progress in cooperation may continue and expand.
  • The teological studies are getting more and more academic. Pray for bible colleges, seminaries and training institutions. Pray for close adherence to biblical truth; pray that effective and practical ministry training might occur.
  • Only about 2% of the nation’s youth call upon Jesus as their Saviour. Pray that more people will go into ministry for youth.
