*UNREACHED OF THE* *DAY*
Pray For The Bhuyiar in India
*Summary*
The word bhuiyar has been derived from the word bhuinhar (Sanskrit, bhumikara), meaning landholder. Bhuiyars live as landowners and laborers. They place themselves among the Sudras in the caste system. Cross-cousin marriages are prevalent. Thus, married couples and family units will worship the main community deities, such as Sewariyamai, Maharanidevi, Bhawani, and Bansaradevi, as well as worship village deities such as Dih, Ghanshyam, Kali, Durga, and Mahadev.
*Ministry obstacles*
The task of ministering in Uttar Pradesh, the primary home of the Bhuyiar, can be overwhelming for Christians, since the gospel presence is so small in this state.
*Scripture Focus*
One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts.
Psalm 145:4
*Scripture Prayers*
Pray that many from this people group will train their children in the ways of the Lord, who in turn will teach their children as well.
*Prayer Focus*
Pray for loving and dedicated Christians to share resources such as the JESUS Film and other evangelistic tools, so that they may be heard and accepted among the Bhuyiar community.
Pray additionally for the entire Bhuyiar family to embrace the ways of Christ when they hear of his unmatched glory.
Pray for them to hear Christ-honoring radio broadcasts when they are unable to reach the locations where Christian missionaries minister.
