Description: The Gujjar Muslims are a traditionally nomadic tribe of obscure origin living throughout the Himalyan foothills in India and Pakistan. One theory suggests they are the descendants of the 5th century White Huns who came to India as nomadic invaders.
Prayer Points:
• The Gujjar Muslims love to sing, and one of their songs about the biblical character Joseph takes five days to finish! Pray for efforts to produce a Christian Gujjar album by a gifted believer who has this calling.
• The "One-Story Project" has finally been completed among the Gujjar (50 recordings of Bible stories). Since the Gujjars are only 18% literate, this resource is vitally needed. Pray for its widespread distribution by new believers as they travel with their herds and mingle with other families and clans.
• The Bible is finally being translated into Gujjari. Recordings are being made as books are completed, and literacy classes are being organized for children. Pray for God's blessing and wisdom for those involved.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, we praise you for the new work which has begun among the Gujjars. We pray your blessing on these efforts and that your name might be glorified in their midst.
Every year 43,000 Gujar Muslims die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
