Status of the Persecuted Church in Bahrain
January 15, 2010
Muslim Population: 81.2% (Christian Population: 9%)
Christianity, though permitted under the Constitution, is strictly regulated. All churches must be registered and approved, and all Christian websites are blocked. Those who choose to evangelize publicly are persecuted, often by their friends and family. Most believers in Bahrain choose to gather in secret.

Restrictions on church gatherings?
July 23, 2008
Officials in Bahrain say they want to enable unauthorized church groups to gather legally. However, it is not entirely clear what the requirements will be.
Pray that registration will not place restrictions on Christian practice and worship. "Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling."
