.........
“Should the law pass, existing theological seminaries are at risk of shutting down, evangelical church pastors may no longer be able to conduct worship services, and the acceptance and use of donations will be subject to government approval and limitations,” stated the World Evangelical Alliance, which has joined with the Bulgarian Evangelical Alliance to oppose the legislation.
.................

    Only Bulgarian citizens will be able to carry out liturgical activity if they have had theological training in Bulgaria or their foreign school is approved.

    Only Eastern Orthodox and Muslim believers will be able to train clergy and run schools.

    A foreigner will only be able to preach if doing so with a Bulgarian ordained minister.

    Foreign donations will only be allowed for building construction or social aid and will need government approval. No salaries of pastors, for example, could be paid from abroad.

    No religious activities can take place outside of buildings designated for them.

    Only religious groups with +300 people will have legal status.

Pls, pray for the bro and sis in Bulgaria, facing incoming persecution.
