Description: The Mbojo are the largest people group on the island of Sumbawa in Indonesia. They are closely related to the Sasak people of Lombok island.
Prayer Points:
• Sumbawa island has been affected by severe droughts, and as a result thousands have left to find work in the Middle East. Pray that these migrants might experience Jesus through the faithful witness of their believing co-workers (such as from the Philippines and Nigeria who are working in the Middle East).
• Most Mbojo live in rural villages which are led by traditional leaders, who are typically the head of an extended family. Pray for the salvation of these influential leaders and for the establishment of the church in every Mbojo community.
• Bima City is the principle urban center for the Mbojo, with a population of 150,000. Pray for a house-fellowship based movement to begin in this city that will impact every neighborhood.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, be lifted high and exalted among the Mbojo. May the worship of your son Jesus resound from Sumbawa.
Every year 7,000 Mbojo die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
