Bangladesh

Bangladesh is a South Asian country with over 153 million people, making it one of the most densely populated countries in the world. More than half of Bangladeshis live below the poverty line and have high illiteracy rates. Islam is the dominant religion, practiced by 83% of residents, while Hindus comprise 16% and Christians make up less than 2% of the population. Churches in Bangladesh work to serve people seeking spiritual fulfillment and truth, and prayers call for protecting church members, opening the nation to the gospel message, reducing violence, and empowering youth and workers to spread Christianity.
