Current events
The Falkland Islands are a British Overseas Territory, and Argentina also claims them. In September 2026 Argentina announced sanctions against oil firms working off the islands without its approval, while the UK and the islands' Legislative Assembly said the future is for the people who live there to decide. The islanders also remembered the merchant seafarers who served in 1982.
We pray for: Immediate relief, safety and urgent help.
Spiritual landscape
Most Falkland Islanders are Christian, mainly Anglican, with Roman Catholic, United Free Church, evangelical and other congregations. These are older figures from about 2000.
We pray for: Spiritual awakening, hope and the spread of truth.
Let us pray together
Our Father, we come to You together for the Falkland Islands. Give wisdom and peace to all who speak about the islands, and let every nation seek good relations. Comfort all, on every side, who still carry memories of 1982. Bless the families of the islands, and let Your love be known in every settlement. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
