(TAH-jeeks) – March 21 is the celebration of the Persian New Year, or Nowruz (meaning “New Day”). It celebrates the coming of spring, and spring brings new life. As they celebrate the changing of seasons and the coming of new life, pray that Tajiks will come to experience the new life that only salvation through Christ can bring. Pray for new believers to rejoice in the ways that God has changed them and His faithfulness in every season. Take time, too, to praise the Lord for those Tajiks who have experienced new life and transformation through Christ’s blood shed for them!
