Description: The Komering are a Malay people living in the southeastern region on the island of Sumatra. They live primarily along the Komering River, which they use for multiple purposes, including rice-field irrigation, fishing and trading.
Prayer Points:
• Progress among the Komering has been slow and there is no active church-planting at present. Pray for additional workers and for breakthrough that will lead to a church-planting movement.
• The Komering language is classified as "threatened" which means that its use among younger people is diminishing. Pray that the Bible might be translated into this language and that God would use this to revive interest in Komering among young believers in Jesus.
• Komering life has been affected by major road-building, which has lured many villagers away from the river to highway communities. Pray that during this time of transition, the Komering might discover the One who never changes and who holds the future in His hands.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, may the Komering experience all the fullness of your eternal plan and purpose for their lives in Jesus.
Every year 5,000 Komering die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
