New Law Restricts Discipling Children

[173] prayers in [11] nations have been posted for Uzbek Christians.

Uzbek lawmakers are cracking down on religious instruction of children. On February 21, 2025, the President of Uzbekistan signed a new law penalizing parents or anyone who teaches children about religion, including Christianity, without official authorization. Violating the law could lead to fines equivalent to more than a month’s wages and up to 15 days in jail. Among Uzbekistan’s population of around 35 million people, only 2% are Christians. Uzbekistan has historically restricted Christian activity, and the new law will make it more difficult for parents to disciple their children in the Christian faith. Government officials have stated that the new law is intended to inhibit Islamic extremism, but Uzbek Christians worry that the new statute will be broadly enforced.
