I have just accepted a position as KS 2 teacher at a Kuwaiti school. Are there any Christian churches or meetings in Kuwait ? |

The only country in the Gulf that doesn't have churches is Saudi Arabia.

Church buildings you mean. There are plenty of underground house churches in Saudi Arabia. |

That would come under the heading of 'meetings' wouldn't it?

I guess so. The Saudi religious police haven't been able to stop "freedom of thought" yet. |

There are over 100,000 Christians living in Kuwait City. There are three main churches located in the center of the city. There is the Catholic Church, Evangelical or Protestant Church and the Coptic Church.
When you arrive in Kuwait, you will meet many teachers who will help you to get to church. Also, some of the teachers have Bible study groups. Christians are very respected in Kuwait.
