Summary
The Moroccan Arab diaspora in Europe is centered in urban locations where they usually hold low paying jobs. Instead of a Muslim culture, they must interface with a secular-humanist culture. Moroccan Arab traditional family and tribal ties are breaking down. In Belgium, there is greater freedom for women to leave the home, fewer arranged marriages, and less social pressure to conform to traditional religious practices. Women as well as men have greater educational and employment opportunities than they had in Morocco. These changes are bringing about much tension.
Obstacles
It is difficult for Moroccan Arabs in secularized Europe to maintain their Islamic identity. To do this, they sometimes get more immersed in Muslim activities, and stay clear of the European culture around them. It is hard to imagine where the Moroccan Ar
How reach
There is much more freedom of religion in Belgium than there is in Morocco. Christ followers can take the gospel to them.
Pray for p g
Pray that the softening of their traditional culture will soften their hearts so they will hunger for the truth and eagerly accept it when they hear it. Pray for a church planting movement among Moroccan Arabic speaking people in Belgium that will show others the transforming power of the gospel in their lives.

Summary
The Kabyle are an African Berber tribe mostly located primarily in Morocco, Tunisia, western Libya and the coastal mountain regions of northern Algeria. The Africans call this entire region of North Africa Maghrib. During the third century, the Romans named the people of the Maghrib "Berber," which means "barbarian." Some arrived in Belgium after World War II when there was a labor shortage. Others went as merchants, since Belgium was an important trading partner with North African countries.
Obstacles
The Muslim Kabyle Berbers rarely meet people in Belgium who follow Jesus Christ with all their hearts.
How reach
Pray for Berber believers to take Christ to other Muslims in Belgium.
Pray for church
Many Kabyle are searching for answers beyond Muslim fundamentalism. Those in North Africa do not have the freedom to follow Christianity, but those in Belgium do. Although a number of them have responded to recent Christian programs produced in France, there are still many who remain unreached.
Pray for p g
Pray for a spiritual hunger among the Kabyle Berbers in Belgium, especially among their leaders. Pray for people who love Jesus to go to them with the gospel. Pray that Belgium would be a place where Kabyle Berbers experience a movement to Christ.

Summary
Belgium was the first nation to repatriate Iraqis who fled their homeland when waves of fighting began in the early 1990s. Discouraged after the flood of refugees mopped up every opportunity they were seeking, over 3,800 Iraqi Arabs voluntarily returned to Iraq in 2015. Belgium provided one year of aid for the disillusioned people, mostly men between 25 and 45. Many are returning to Iraq, a land where Iraqi refugees have lost family members, businesses, and their livelihoods.
Obstacles
Islam is a political as well as a religious belief system. Throughout the Muslim world, Islam is the core part of people's identities.
How reach
Iraqi Arabs in Belgium have access to Arabic Bibles, Christian literature, JESUS Films, and audio Bible teachings. There is a door God has opened for thousands of asylum seekers to find the peace and safety that only Christ can offer. They are in a land where they can learn of Jesus and embrace Him and the teachings of the Word of God. Are they hearing? Are local believers showing them kindness, and sharing Christ?
Pray for church
Pray for believers to distribute the JESUS Film, Bibles, and other materials to Muslim Arabs from Iraq. Pray that the few Iraqi Arab believers will eagerly share the Savior with their Muslim neighbors.
Pray for p g
Pray that Belgium will be a place where spiritually hungry Iraqi Arabs can find and embrace the Savior. Pray for Arabic-speaking fellowships to flourish in Belgium. Pray for Belgium to be a starting point for a disciple-making movement for Iraqi Arabs.

Summary
Tunisians tend to be more modern and secular than other Arab Muslim people. This mindset has helped then fit in with Europe's culture better than other Arabic-speaking peoples. Tunisia has a large highly educated youth population. Almost two out of every three Arabs are under the age of 30. Both the Middle East and North Africa have the highest youth unemployment on the planet. Frustration, lack of opportunity, and government corruption produced a revolution in January 2011 resulting in the president fleeing the country, regime change, and the Arab Spring (the ripples of Tunisia's revolution spread to Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Syria, and others). The aftermath of this time period is still being felt as Tunisians and other Arabic-speaking people are fleeing to Belgium and other European countries to find safety.
Obstacles
Even for secularized Tunisian Arabs, Islam is part of their identity. Those who want to follow Christ must be very careful in the way they go about following Him so it doesn't appear too culturally "Christian." Most Tunisian Arab believers, even those in Europe, experience significant persecution from family and friends. They risk losing their place in their family and Muslim society. This is almost unbearable for someone who comes from a close family.
How reach
Most Muslims say they love Jesus, but few have heard his teachings. Resources in the various Arabic dialects are available and they can be distributed to Tunisian Arabs in Belgium, where there is freedom of religion. Someone can do Bible studies with spiritually hungry Arabs, and lead them to the Savior.
Pray for church
Ask God to strengthen, encourage, and protect the small number of Arabs who have decided to follow Christ in Belgium.
Pray for p g
Pray that the Tunisians in Belgium will hear and receive the gospel of Jesus Christ and the promise of salvation to those who believe in Him. May they have the joy of knowing they are secure in the embrace of Jesus. Ask the Lord to call people who are willing to reach out and share the love of Christ with Arabs in Belgium. Pray that God will raise up faithful intercessors who will stand in the gap for the Arabs in Belgium. Pray that the softening of their traditional Tunisian culture will create open doors for the gospel to be preached among them. Ask the Lord to raise up strong local churches among the Diaspora Arabs in Europe.

Summary
The Chechens are from a place in the North Caucasus Mountains of southwestern Russia called Chechnya. They are among the Turkic peoples conquered by the Russian Empire. Fighting between the Chechens and the Russians has been sporadic since the 1700s. When the USSR imploded in 1991, Chechens quickly attempted to gain independence. That decade saw two major rounds of fighting between the Russian military and Chechen militias in Chechnya. By 2000 the Russians had destroyed Grozny, the main city in Chechnya. Chechens have fled Chechnya to many places including Belgium. Within Belgium, Chechens mainly live in Aarschot. Others live in Brussels, Antwerp, Ostend, Louvain, Bredene, and Namur.
Obstacles
The culture of rebellion and violence has followed the Chechens to Belgium. Chechens who make the news include those who helped lead a high-level terrorist attack and those fighting as gang members. It will take believers who are willing to risk their lives to reach out to these hardened people.
How reach
The Chechens in Belgium need marketable skills that can help them earn an honest living in an urban setting. Training in computer programming and business skills would be welcome by these people who are caught in a cycle of violence and poverty. Believers who can teach these skills can be Christ's ambassadors to the Chechens in Belgium.
Pray for church
We know of no followers of Christ among the Chechen population in Belgium. Pray for many of them to turn their hearts to Jesus.
Pray for p g
Pray for workers with sacrificial love to go to the Chechens to teach job skills and the ways of the Prince of Peace. Pray for the Chechens to become appalled by violence and seek spiritual answers from the Lord. Pray for a disciple-making movement among Chechens to begin in Belgium and spread far and wide.

The Urdu speakers living in Belgium are 100 percent Muslim. For most of them, Islam is central to their identity. Many of them feel threatened if someone tells them that Jesus offered better answers to life's challenges than Mohammed.
How reach
It will take believers who genuinely love Christ enough to risk rejection to go to the Urdu speakers in Belgium. They must be filled with the fruit of the Holy Spirit and loving enough to tell Muslims the truth.
Pray for church
We know of no Christian believers among Urdu speakers in Belgium, so pray that many will embrace the Savior in the coming years.
Pray for p g
Pray that there will be concentrated efforts to reach Pakistanis and other Muslims in Belgium in the near future. Pray that Urdu speakers living in Belgium would know the love and kindness of God through the actions of Christian neighbors. Pray for Urdu speakers in Belgium to begin a church planting movement.

Summary
The majority of Belgium's Jews live in Brussels and Antwerp. Brussels has more than a dozen synagogues, including the largest synagogue in Europe. These places of worship vary from Reform to Orthodox. It also is where the leading Jewish newspaper, The Regards, is published and Radio Judaica, the first European Jewish radio station, is located. The city has three Jewish schools and the European Union for Jewish Students is in Brussels. There are 30 Orthodox synagogues in Antwerp along with several kosher restaurants and grocery stores. Approximately 95% of Jewish children in Antwerp attend Jewish day schools and receive intensive religious education. Currently anti-Semitism is increasing in Belgium and other parts of Europe. This is partly related to the immigration of Muslims to the country. Some of these Belgian Jews have migrated to Israel.
Obstacles
The majority of Jews in Belgium have a strong Jewish identity and are not receptive to accept Jesus as their Messiah.
How reach
Messianic Jewish believers, especially those with Jews For Jesus, have brought a few Belgian Jews to the Lord.
Pray for church
Pray that believers would patiently befriend Belgium's Jews and give them the peace only found in knowing their true Messiah, Jesus.
Pray for p g
Pray that the Holy Spirit would begin even now to soften the hearts of Jews in Belgium and open their eyes to the realization that Messiah has come.

Summary
The Fulbe people are from the West African nations of Mali, Guinea, Sierra Leone, and Senegal. They are part of the much larger Fulani peoples who are among the largest and most powerful people in West Africa. In Europe, Africans like the Fulbes usually live in cities. Though they live a more prosperous life than they did in West Africa, life is not easy for Africans trying to adjust to life in the West. Africans must adjust to many changes in Belgium. Personal relationships are different, and they must adjust to living with a different set of social expectations. Africans assume that the group rises or falls together, but in the West they must adjust to an individualistic culture.
Obstacles
Efforts to evangelize these people in Africa resulted in only a very small number of Fulbe believers. They are apparently very devoted to their Islamic religion and see it as a fulfillment of their needs. To win these people to Christ, further prayer is needed for God to open their hearts and eyes to the truth. That is also true for these West Africans in Belgium.
How reach
Most West Africans who have migrated to Belgium have not been there long. When someone lives with rapid change and uncertainty, they are more likely to embrace Christ than they are after they are settled. Believers need to reach them now, not later.
Pray for church
Pray that God will give the small number of Fulbe believers boldness to share Christ with their own people.
Pray for p g
Ask God to raise up prayer teams who will begin breaking up the soil through worship and intercession. Ask the Lord of the harvest to send full-time missionaries to share the gospel with the Muslim African peoples in Europe. Pray for a disciple making movement among the Fulbe people in Europe. Ask the Lord to bring forth a triumphant Fulbe church for the glory of his name!

Summary
Few Japanese entered Belgium until the 1970s and 1980s. They are in various stages of enculturation. Some speak European languages fluently and interface with Europeans on a regular basis. Others prefer to remain in their Japanese communities. Though they usually don't expect to stay in Belgium for long periods of time, the Japanese make an attempt to learn either English or French, two key trade languages in Europe. Auderghen, a section of Brussels, is the location of a Japanese school called the Japanese School of Brussels. Families can make sure their children remain connected with Japan's deep culture. There are a number of businesses in Brussels that cater to Japanese clients. Major Japanese companies like Toyota have a presence in Belgium. The Japanese in Belgium do not have a problem with poverty or unemployment. They highly value education.
Obstacles
In Japan, most people are pragmatic about spiritual matters. They often perform Buddhist rituals, especially at funerals, because they believe this will provide the departed with a better afterlife. Japanese spirituality is a blend of Buddhism and Shintoism. As a general rule, the Japanese are secular, and they do not seek a personal relationship with any deity or spirit being. They view the spirit world as something to be appeased in order to gain favor. Many Japanese do not take their spiritual lives very seriously.
How reach
Believers can go through the Japanese parts of Belgium and pray for them to have a spiritual hunger.
Pray for church
There are almost no followers of Christ among the Japanese in Belgium. Pray for the few to exhibit the fruit of the Holy Spirit in such a way that other Japanese will also want to be imitators of Christ.
Pray for p g
Pray that the Japanese in Belgium will find the need for a personal relationship with a holy, all-good God. Pray that those who stay in Belgium will have the chance to meet Christ-followers who love Him, and want His name glorified among the Japanese. Pray for a church planting movement among the Japanese in Belgium that will spread to Japan.

Summary
There are two groups of Tajiks in Belgium. One group is from Tajikistan, a former Soviet Socialist Republic that gained their independence in 1991 with the downfall of the USSR. They began arriving in Belgium in the early 1990s. The other group is Tajiks who originated in northern Afghanistan, and they are fleeing the Taliban. Tajiks from Tajikistan have been able to learn the local language and begin their new lives. The Tajiks who have fled Afghanistan are often stranded anywhere that will take them in as refugees. They are desperate to stay out of Afghanistan. Most of the Afghan Tajiks are in Brussels or Antwerp. Recent arrivals are sometimes holed up in churches.
Obstacles
Though the Tajiks are not good Muslims, they have had few if any opportunities to hear what Jesus has to offer them.
How reach
The Tajiks have their own art forms, and they proudly display them in certain galleries in Belgium. Art reaches the heart; perhaps believers can use art as a bridge to showing them the ways of Jesus.
Pray for church
There are almost no followers of Christ among the Afghan Tajiks in Belgium. Pray that these few individuals will let their light shine brightly for Jesus.
Pray for p g
Pray for the Lord to raise up believers who will spend years with the Afghan Tajiks and teach them marketable skills. Pray for believers to show Afghan Tajiks the way to follow Jesus. Some Afghan Tajiks have been given refuge in Belgian churches. Pray that believers will tell them about the Savior who is worshiped in these church buildings.
