时事
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 即时救援、安全和紧急帮助.
领导与政治
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 为掌权者求智慧、正直和公义.
经济状况
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 家庭的供应和诚实的管理.
社会与文化问题
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 和好、和平，以及对弱势者的保护.
属灵景况
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 属灵的苏醒、盼望和真理的传扬.
宗教自由
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 保护信徒，使他们能安全自由地敬拜.
历史的创伤
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.
我们为以下事项祷告： 国家的医治、打破旧有的循环和深层的饶恕.
让我们一起祷告
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.
