Read about Barbados in: 
 
Barbados
"Little England"
Barbados is the Little England of the Caribbean.
It is one of the richest and most successful of any of the Caribbean islands. Since it was settled nearly 400 years ago, people have been able to worship freely.


Youth Facts
Barbados has the best success rate of turning out world class cricket players of any country!

Answers to Prayer
People have been praying in Barbados to ask for forgiveness for the slavery that the English introduced when they settled on the island.

Challenges for Prayer
Nearly everyone on the island would call themselves Christians, but less and less people are actually going to church and the country is gripped by materialism. Pray that the people in Barbados would turn back to a closer relationship with Jesus.
The Church is struggling as there is a lot of competition and mistrust between it’s leaders. Pray that God would give them a heart for unity and a desire to share a vision for Barbados.
Pray for the young people in Barbados who need spiritual direction. Pray that the Church would be able to reach into a generation that is lost and disciple young Christians to live a lifestyle that reflects Jesus.
