Ringkasan doa bagi Antigua dan Barbuda
Terakhir diperbarui Oktober 2026. Fakta diambil dari sumber-sumber yang tercantum di bawah.
Peristiwa terkini
An early general election was held on 30 April 2026, and in May the new Cabinet took office without the oath to the British monarch used for 40 years. The Cabinet also made Spanish an official language in May. In late August Tropical Storm Dolly brought a threat of heavy rain to the Leeward Islands.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pertolongan segera, keselamatan, dan bantuan mendesak.
Kepemimpinan dan politik
Antigua and Barbuda is a constitutional monarchy with King Charles III as head of state, represented by Governor-General Sir Rodney Williams. Prime Minister Gaston Browne won a fourth term in a row: his Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party took 15 of 17 seats, the United Progressive Party one, and the Barbuda People's Movement held the Barbuda seat.
Kami berdoa bagi: Hikmat, integritas, dan keadilan bagi para pemegang kekuasaan.
Kesehatan ekonomi
Tourism makes up more than half of the economy, and citizenship by investment is another source of income. Public debt is about 70% of GDP, and the IMF warns that higher fuel prices from the war in the Middle East could raise living costs across the region.
Kami berdoa bagi: Pemeliharaan bagi keluarga-keluarga dan pengelolaan yang jujur.
Masalah sosial dan budaya
Immigrants made up about 30% of the population in 2011, and reports say they face discrimination. Relations between Antigua and Barbuda have been strained by a dispute over communal land on Barbuda after Hurricane Irma.
Kami berdoa bagi: Rekonsiliasi, damai, dan perlindungan bagi mereka yang rentan.
Keadaan rohani
Most people are Christian. In the 2011 census Anglicans were the largest church at about 18%, followed by Seventh-day Adventists, Pentecostals, Moravians, Catholics and Methodists. Rastafarians, Muslims, Hindus and members of the Baha'i faith are also present.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kebangunan rohani, pengharapan, dan tersebarnya kebenaran.
Kebebasan beragama
The constitution guarantees freedom of religion and conscience, and the state is secular. Rastafari representatives have raised concerns about rules such as mandatory vaccination, and Freedom House scored the country 4 out of 4 for religious freedom in 2023.
Kami berdoa bagi: Perlindungan bagi orang percaya dan kebebasan untuk beribadah dengan aman.
Luka sejarah
English settlers grew sugar with enslaved West Africans, and a planned revolt in 1736 led by Prince Klaas ended in executions. Slavery was abolished by the 1833 Act, and independence came in 1981. Hurricane Irma in 2017 damaged 95% of buildings on Barbuda, and nearly everyone had to leave the island.
Kami berdoa bagi: Kesembuhan bangsa, terputusnya lingkaran lama, dan pengampunan yang mendalam.
Mari kita berdoa bersama
Our Father, we come to You together for Antigua and Barbuda. Keep the islands safe through the storm season, and bless the work of the new government. Give the Prime Minister and all in authority wisdom, integrity and justice. Provide for every family facing rising costs, and guide honest stewardship of the nation. Bring peace between Antigua and Barbuda, and protect migrants and all who are vulnerable. Let the love of Jesus be known in every church and home, and keep all free to worship. Heal the old wounds of slavery and of Hurricane Irma, and lead the nation in forgiveness. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
