Current events
Martinique, an overseas department and region of France governed as a single territorial collectivity, has seen road blockades in October 2026 as part of a new mobilisation against the high cost of living, and a cruise ship's first planned visit was cancelled. Farm workers are also struggling with drought.
We pray for: Immediate relief, safety and urgent help.
Spiritual landscape
About nine in ten people are Christian, mostly Catholic (about 86%), with Protestants about 6%. There are small Hindu, Baha'i and Muslim communities.
We pray for: Spiritual awakening, hope and the spread of truth.
Let us pray together
Our Father, we come to You together for Martinique. Bring peace and safety on the roads, and provide for families under the weight of high prices. Send rain and help to the farmers in the drought. Give those in authority wisdom to listen and act justly, and let Your love unite every community. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
