Description: The Gera are a Chadic people living in Northeast Nigeria. They are the primary inhabitants of the city of Bauchi. Most are farmers, though in the city of Bauchi many are professionals and business owners.
Prayer Points:
• The Gera are a highly structured tribe with royal families and ruling councils that govern them. Pray for the salvation of these families and leaders, and that they might lead their people in righteousness through the gospel.
• Nigeria's Bauchi state has been severely affected by the terrorist group Boko Haram. Pray for the protection of missionaries working among them and the Gera believers who are courageously following Christ.
• The Gera are closely related to 13 other Chadic tribes in Nigeria, and have considerable influence on smaller groups. Pray that the Lord might use future Gera missionaries to reach these nearby related tribes.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, may the Gera be lifted out of the darkness which envelopes them and brought into the light of your salvation through the powerful proclamation of the gospel in their midst.
Every year 3,000 Gera die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
