Description: The Kyrgyz are a Turkic people, which originated in central Siberia. They became a separate ethnicity from the Kazakhs in 15th century when, according to tradition, forty tribes were forced from their Siberian homeland by the Kalmyks and other tribes, into what is now present day Kyrgyzstan.
Prayer Points:
• Praise God for the 100+ missionaries laboring among the Kyrgyz. Pray for smooth transfer of ministry to Kyrgyz leaders.
• Pray for church planters to be sent from Kyrgystan to work among the Kyrgyz in China, which have only a handful of believers, and for the complete evangelization of all Kyrgyzstan's minority Muslim peoples.
• Pray that the Church might have favor with the government of Kyrgystan, despite pressures from other Central Asian countries to crack down on Evangelicals.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, may the Kyrgyz glorify your name and experience the depths of your love in the person of Jesus Christ.
Every year 41,000 Kyrghyz die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
