Tonga is a Polynesian kingdom of more than 170 South Pacific islands. Tonga’s red flag includes a bold red cross on top of a white rectangle; the cross represents the nation’s deep-rooted Christianity. Though this rich Christian heritage is a blessing, as reflected by their national song (which calls God their defense and praises His love for them), it has reached the point of oversaturation, and nominalism plays a large role.
➢ Ask that the Tongan people find freedom in Christ and reclaim the dynamic faith of their forefathers, as they see the Prayer for protection from their national song answered by God.
➢ Pray for emigrant believers to cling to the truth of God’s word as they adapt to life in their host nations.
