Summary: The Sylhet are Muslims from Bangladesh's Sylhet region and Northeast India who combine Muslim and Hindu wedding customs. Although Islam does not recognize castes, Sylheti Muslims practice a system of social division. Every year, the Sylhet community celebrates certain Islamic holidays. They give their children money, and the men offer special Islamic prayers. They visit relatives later in the day and cook traditional food.
Obstacles: As Muslims, they usually hear at an early age that the Bible is filled with inaccuracies and the Koran is flawless. There is much social pressure to remain within the Islamic fold. It is challenging to break into the Sylhet community. Believers must spend months in fervent prayer before sending someone to tell them about the only Savior.
Pray for p g: Pray for this people group to recognize their own spiritual bankruptcy and come to Christ for the riches of his forgiveness. Pray that there will soon be a thriving community of believers that will multiply into a movement to Christ. Pray for the Lord to provide the Sylhet with good schools and medical facilities. Pray for increased availability and understanding of Sylheti-language Scripture and gospel materials. Pray for missionaries and local Christians to be equipped and courageous in reaching this group. Pray that this people group will become quick to listen to the word of the Lord and respond with joyful faith.

Summary: Some Namasudra own land and are engaged in cultivation, but a large number are daily-wage workers. Rickshaw-pulling, poultry farming and goat-rearing are secondary occupations. They profess Hinduism, and worship Lakshmi and Parameshwar. Their literacy rate has improved somewhat in recent years.
Obstacles: This low caste community will likely perceive Christianity as an invading foreign influence that threatens their identity as a people.
How reach: Oral communication of the good news of Christ may be most appropriate. Stories from Scripture, Gospel radio, films, and recordings will all be useful.
Pray for church: Pray the Namasudra people who know God will become wise in sowing the Word of God among their families and multiplying the blessings of God to other households. There are a few people in the Namasudra community who identify themselves as Christians. Pray they will come to truly trust in Christ, and follow him obediently. Pray they understand that to be a Christian means more than cultural identification.
Pray for p g: Pray the Namasudra community will make schooling a priority for their children, and will be able to care adequately for their families. Pray for health care, clean water, and sufficient food.

Summary: Namassej Chandel live under distressed economic conditions. Higher education is rare for them and, while the people are engaged in a variety of professions, those living in villages are usually engaged in agriculture. A very small number are employed either by the government or the private sector.
Obstacles: Namassej Chandel embrace a form of Hinduism. Lack of education or literacy can keep the people from God's Word.
How reach: Those who are literate will be able to read gospel texts and may be able to share them with family. They can also heed radio broadcasts in a language they understand.
Pray for church: Pray for the few believers to change their society from within. Pray for a movement in which the Holy Spirit leads and empowers the few disciples to make more disciples.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Namassej Chandel to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods. Pray for a movement of Jesus to heal and strengthen Namassej Chandel communities.

Summary: The Sayyid are among the largest of Muslim communities of India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh. They occupy the highest of social classes among Muslims. They are traditionally the priests and religious teachers of the Muslim communities. More recently, they can be found in many government services, teaching, and business occupations. They marry mainly within their own clans. Sayyids can be found in both major sect divisions of the Shia and the Sunni.
Obstacles: Because of their position as religious teachers and priests, they are considered completely Muslim in each of the countries where their live, including Bangladesh. It is very difficult for someone who has high status in a religious community to be willing to give their prestige up for the sake of following Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to raise up “Apostle Pauls” from within this religious community. Communities love uniformity; for that reason, Sayyids feel threatened by believers who reach out to their people to pull them into a foreign-appearing church fellowship. Therefore, pray that entire Sayyid families and clans would be drawn to follow Jesus Christ together.

Summary: Though the Kayasthas live mostly in the Indian states of West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, and Delhi, some live further east in the Muslim nation of Bangladesh. In recent years, these well-educated Hindus have broken new ground and excelled in vocations other than those relating to writing and record-keeping. It will take believers from a high-status background to gain a hearing among these educated Hindus. The Lord will need to raise up ambassadors for Christ who will walk in the fruit of the Holy Spirit and have enough patience and love for the Kayasthas to stay with them until they have their own movement to Christ.
Obstacles: Bangladesh is a country that allows few opportunities to share the gospel, even with Hindu minorities like the Kayasthas. Within Bangladesh's Hindu communities, the Kayasthas have high prestige. This could easily give them the false impression that they do not need a savior to save them from sin.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to make his holy presence known among the Hindu Kayasthas in Bangladesh. Pray for the Kayasthas in Bangladesh to experience and share the blessings of Christ. Pray for gratitude to the one who gives life. There are few followers of Christ among the Kayasthas in Bangladesh. Furthermore, there are few believers who speak Bengali as their first language in both India and Bangladesh. Pray for the Holy Spirit to intervene in their community in such a way that it is clear that only Jesus Christ is worthy of their undivided devotion.

Summary: The Rajbansi are an agricultural, indigenous people who live mainly in India and Bangladesh, though a smaller number live in Nepal and Bhutan. The Rajbansi claim to be descendants of the kings of the Koch dynasties that ruled Bengali lands in the 16th century. Wet rice is their primary crop, and wheat and potatoes have also recently been added. Some have remarkable skills in weaving and embroidery. They make items that are traded in the weekly markets.
Obstacles: Being Hindus in Bangladesh, a Muslim country, puts the Rajbansi people in a difficult position. Those who put their faith in Jesus Christ would face hostilities from both Muslims and Hindus.
How reach: The Rajbansi people have many needs in the areas of education and medicine. Christian believers who go to them can provide for these needs while demonstrating the ways of Jesus Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray that Bangladeshi believers would befriend the Rajbansi and tell them about the only Savior. Pray that gospel radio programs and gospel recordings would lead them to put their faith in Jesus. Pray for a Holy Spirit empowered discipleship making movement to Christ among them. Ask God to raise up prayer teams who will begin breaking up the soil through intercession.

Summary: The so-called Bihari are Muslims who originated from different people groups in Bihar and neighboring states of what was once British India. Following communal riots during and after the partition of the Indian subcontinent, hundreds of thousands of Urdu-speaking Muslims migrated from Bihar and other Indian states to East Pakistan, now known as Bangladesh. Later, the Biharis sided with Pakistan and shared in war crimes against millions of Bengali civilians. After the war they became victims of revenge and were gathered by the Red Cross into 66 relief camps to await repatriation to Pakistan, which has never occurred for many.
Obstacles: The Bihari have been Muslim for many generations and are prejudiced against Christianity as a religion.
How reach: The congested housing situation and lack of sanitation and potable water cause many health problems. Mission groups bringing clean water sources and supplies would help take care of a basic need for this people group.
Pray for church: There may be a few Bihari who know Jesus as Savior, but even that much is in doubt. Pray for any believers among the Bihari community of Bangladesh.
Pray for p g: Pray for outreach workers who can explain the gospel with accuracy and cultural sensitivity leading to a movement to Christ. May Bihari hearts be softened and open to God's truth.

Summary: Mahishya livelihood was originally based upon producing and maintaining crops and farmland. However, in recent years many have become skilled as engineers and successful businesspeople.
Obstacles: Mahishya people are almost completely Hindu in their religion. Hinduism is a very diverse religion involving many gods that dominate their lives and value system. They do not have a personal or familial relationship with their gods like Christians or Jews. They have no conception of the loving, almighty God who laid down his life to pay the penalty for their sins.
How reach: Mahishya people have the complete Bible, audio and visual resources, and the JESUS Film in their spoken language, Bengali. These resources can be useful in helping these spiritually needy people to understand their need for Jesus.
Pray for p g: Pray for Mahishya households to begin to study the Bible and accept the blessings of Christ. Pray for a spiritual hunger that will invite them to the loving arms of Jesus. Pray for workers who are filled with the fruit and the power of the Holy Spirit to go to the Mahishya people. Pray they can communicate the desperate need we all have for the savior.

Summary: The Hindu Jogi people of Bangladesh are followers of yoga. They are made up of religious mendicants (i.e., beggars) of the various Jogi orders, and people who live by fortune telling, practicing exorcisms and divination. Many Muslims in Bangladesh feel that the Jogi people are a threat to Islam.
Obstacles: There are only a few believers within this people group. Being Hindu is part of the Jogis' community identity.
How reach: It will take much prayer to break down the spiritual barriers before anyone attempts to reach out to the Jogi people.
Pray for church: A few from the Jogi community have reported themselves as Christians in the census. Pray that these believers can find Bible believing churches.
Pray for p g: Pray the Jogi would be able to find employment to improve their standard of living and provide for their families. Pray that there would be many Christian workers called and anointed by God to take the gospel to the Jogi people in Bangladesh. Pray for the Holy Spirit to touch the hearts of the Jogi people in Bangladesh in such a way that they would understand that they must accept and submit to the risen Christ. Pray for the Lord to raise up a church planting movement among this people in this decade.

Summary: The Sunri people live in India and Bangladesh, with approximately equal numbers in each country. Traditionally, they distill alcohol, though many of the Sunri have become merchants, traders and government workers. Perhaps they have stopped producing alcohol because Bangladesh is a Muslim country that discourages the selling and consumption of alcohol. The Sunri themselves practice Hinduism. They worship the gods of the Hindu pantheon, including Shiva and Lakshmi. The Sunri marry within their caste, but not within their clan. Most practice monogamy, marriage between one man and one woman. They try to attain higher education.
Obstacles: Because of the practice and tradition of Hinduism, it may be difficult to persuade those with a pantheon of gods that Jesus would be a replacement for all, rather than just another God among many.
How reach: It may be beneficial for the Sunri to see the love and mercy of Christ lived out among them, in contrast to Islam or the gods of Hinduism.
Pray for p g: Pray for a spiritual discernment and hunger that will drive them to the loving arms of Christ. Pray for the Sunri people to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods. Pray for a movement of Jesus to heal and strengthen Sunri communities.

Summary: The Hajam are also known as the Nai Muslims or Turuk Navid in India. There is a long-standing tradition of the Hajam being hair-cutters, barbers and manicurists. The Hajam are found in nearly every part of India and most of Pakistan. In Nepal, they can be found in almost any part of the Terai region. The Hajam remain a respected caste of hair-cutters (hajamat). In some areas they are the owners of barber shops and salons. They can often be an active part of the Muslim community, trimming hair for major family events like weddings and funerals. Even minor ritual surgeries like circumcision can be conducted by some Hajam. In some communities they can also be matchmakers and some Hajam women assist with childbirth. Though they are Sunni Muslims, married women will often be distinguished by a nose stud and the “bindi” dot on the forehead.
Obstacles: With few, if any, Christ followers among their own community the Hajam will have to depend on outsiders to take them the gospel. However, the Bengali language has all kinds of gospel materials.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Hajam to have the spiritual hunger it takes to seek and find the Lord. Pray for loving workers to go to them. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Hajam.

Summary: The Shaikh, also known as Sheikhs, are a significant Muslim community in Bangladesh. Historically, the title "Shaikh" was given to those who were teachers or leaders in Islamic societies, and over time, it has become a common surname among Muslims in South Asia. The Shaikhs have a diverse background, with many claiming descent from Arab traders, Persian scholars, and Turkish conquerors who settled in the region centuries ago.
Obstacles: Much prayer is needed because the Shaikh see Christianity as an invading threat to their families and communities.
Pray for p g: Pray for new Christ followers among the Shaikh. Pray for physical and spiritual protection for Shaikh followers of Jesus. Pray for effectiveness and fruitfulness in sowing God's word among Shaikh families leading to God's blessing spreading from household to household. Pray for many laborers to sow God's word among Shaikh households and extended families.

Summary: The Kaibartta's primary occupation has been that of fishermen since their earliest days. They are losing their fishing rights to high caste members. From a cultural standpoint, the Kaibartta are a despised people. Some people in India view them as simple, uncultured and tribal. The Kaibartta women do not participate in political or religious activities. Elderly men make judicial decisions in their communities. The Kaibartta currently live in India and Bangladesh. The primary languages of the Kaibartta vary in accordance with their geographic locations. Underneath the veneer of Hinduism, the Kaibartta believe in the existence of spirits and, therefore, are rightly considered by some to be animists. Kaibartta enjoy festive dances.
Obstacles: The Kaibartta are extremely patriarchal, so it is often men making the spiritual decisions, therefore women missionaries could find it challenging to engage.
How reach: Male missionaries can help cultivate the fishing communities while female missionaries can help the women to understand the ways of Jesus.
Pray for p g: Pray that God would free them from the slavery of the spirit world and would guide them to himself family by family. Pray that God would relieve them of injustice from higher castes. Pray for them to have the spiritual discernment and desire to seek and find Christ.

Summary: Brahmins perform Hindu rituals but only a subset of Brahmins are involved in priestly duties including teaching and preaching. In modern times they have excelled as educators, law makers, scholars, doctors, warriors, writers, poets, land owners, computer engineers, and politicians. Brahmins in Bangladesh must navigate being Hindu leaders in a Muslim country.
Obstacles: Brahmins are taught at an early age that they are at the top of the Hindu social order. This can easily produce spiritual pride, which is anathema in God's sight. Hindus believe that they have everything to lose by "changing religion," so believers must make it clear that they are actually asking Brahmins to give their devotion to Jesus Christ rather than to a different religious system.
How reach: It will take believers from a privileged community to reach these people who have no social contact with less-prestigious communities.
Pray for church: There are no known followers of Christ among the Brahmins in Bangladesh, so pray that the Holy Spirit will begin to draw them to the person, Jesus Christ.
Pray for p g: Well-meaning believers have often tried to win a couple of Brahmins to Christ where they attend worship services with people from other communities. To Brahmin family leaders, this appears to be a rejection of their community. Therefore, pray for the Holy Spirit to penetrate the hearts and minds of Brahmin family leaders in Bangladesh.

Summary: The word Karan comes from the word meaning scribe which was their traditional work. The Karan Kayastha live not only in Bangladesh but also in India. A small number live in Nepal. The Karan allow divorce and remarriage, but divorce is not allowed unless the wife cannot have children. Widowers can marry again. Many are landowners. Most have a good education so they have opportunities to work in government and private service. Some are self-employed.
Obstacles: Bangladesh is a Muslim-majority country with a Hindu minority. The Karan are a Hindu people who have very little gospel witness.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Holy Spirit to give the Karan teachable and understanding hearts. Pray for a strong movement of the Holy Spirit to bring entire Karan families into a rich experience of God's blessing. Pray for the Holy Spirit to draw their families to seek forgiveness, and to understand the adequacy of Christ's work on the cross. Pray for a movement of Karan households to study the Bible and accept the blessings of Christ. Pray for this community to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods.

Summary: The Jalia Kaibarta were originally aborigines who later became part of the Hindu community. They are a scheduled caste. The Jalia Kaibarta speak, read and write in Bengali. Some live in Bangladesh or India's northeastern states of Tripura, Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. Fishing is their main work. Some of them work in laboring and agriculture. Some are teachers and others do admin work. Their education level is improving.
Obstacles: There are only about one in a thousand Christ followers among the Jalia Kaibartta in Bangladesh who can tell about the loving savior. They will need to hear it from others in this country where the vast majority are Muslim.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Jalia Kaibarta in Bangladesh would have a spiritual hunger and find satisfaction in Jesus Christ. Pray for workers to go to the Jalia Kaibarta and be a blessing to their community. Pray for a church planting movement to flourish among this people group. Just about every gospel material imaginable is available in their Bengali language. Pray that they be downloaded in their own homes.

Summary: The Sadhubanik are a subgroup of the Sunri. This subgroup also lives in both India and Bangladesh. The main foods of the Sunri community include rice, vegetables, fruit, grains and dairy products. They do not eat beef or pork but will consume fish. The primary language of the Sunri Sadhubanik is Bengali.
Obstacles: It is hard for Hindus like the Sunri Sadhubanik to grasp and embrace the idea of worshipping only one god. They will have to understand that God is a jealous God and he has no rival.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Sunri Sadhubanik to understand that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Pray that they would see the impotence of the gods they worship. Pray for Holy Spirit-anointed workers to go. Pray for teams of believers to offer sustained, focused prayer for the Lord to open the hearts of Sunri Sadhubanik family leaders to experience God's blessing through a movement of family-based discovery Bible studies.

Summary: The Kumhar live throughout South Asia by different surnames: Verma, Kumhar, Prajapat, Prajapati and Kumawat. The Kumhar make earthen pots, but it is very difficult for a Kumhar artisan to maintain his existence that way. They claim to be the first inventors of the wheel. They are very honest people and make their livelihood by hard work. Being Hindu, they may worship more than one god and caste is important.
Obstacles: It is difficult for any Hindu to understand that there is only one God and one way to true spirituality. This seems very narrow to them.
Pray for p g: Pray for better schools for Bangladesh's Kumhar community. Pray for the Lord to thrust out workers to them in Bangladesh and India. Pray for a spiritual hunger among the Kumhars that will lead them to the cross and the empty grave. Pray for Kumhar disciples who will make more disciples.

Summary: Who would think of shoemakers observing a marriage ritual by walking around sacred fire? The low-status Mochi caste members typically work as cobblers, fashioning leather into shoes, saddles, and other goods. They are almost 100 percent Hindu, worshipping their gods and following rituals of Hinduism.
Obstacles: Geography and the Hindu religion form major barriers to reaching the Mochi people. They are spread throughout India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan in scores of different subgroups with few believers among them. Pray the Holy Spirit will overcome these obstacles by drawing Mochi leaders and families throughout South Asia to Christ.
How reach: Ask for committed intercessors from Indian churches to lift up the Mochi. Pray for anointed witnesses to reach out to Mochi people selling shoes, leather goods, and other items. Ask that Bible resources already available in the major Mochi languages of Bengali and Hindi take root in the various Mochi subgroups.
Pray for p g: Ask for Disciple Making Movements to begin in different Mochi communities. Pray that these movements spread throughout South Asia to bring great blessings upon all the Mochi subgroups of India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan.

Summary: "Malo" is an Arabic word that means "boatman," and many of them live in the Bangladeshi states of Dhaka, Rajshahi and Khulna. This low class people group can be separated into two major divisions: of Bengali and non-Bengali identity. The traditional means of survival for the Malo people is fishing. When fishing is good, they can earn enough money to provide for themselves, but when fishing is harder than usual, they often starve. Some of them also work as landless agricultural laborers.
Obstacles: These Hindus are devoted to Vishnu (the Hindu preserver god and his avatars: Rama and Krishna). It will be very hard for them to give Jesus Christ their full devotion. They also believe that performing good works will give them moksha, or freedom from reincarnation.
How reach: The Jhalo Malo people have a need for quality education for their children. They also need modern medicine and improved job training and opportunities. Believers with the right skills can help them with these practical needs while also showing them the way to the cross.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Holy Spirit would show them how futile idolatry is and that their good works are fruitless. Pray for the physical and spiritual safety of the Malo people as they encounter all-powerful landowners' discrimination and demonic forces. Pray that their elders would turn to Christ, the only one who can truly give rebirth. Pray for an unstoppable movement to Christ.

Summary: Imagine that your people group was named after a popular tea or coffee. The Hindu Tamboli people of India are named after their main crop, "betel nut," which is a leaf that many people in South Asia chew as a stimulant. The Hindu Tamboli people are located throughout northern and central India as well as Bangladesh.
Obstacles: Because there are no known followers of Christ, starting ministries can be very difficult. The Tamboli are Hindu, and their bondage to idol worship is strong.
How reach: The JESUS Film is available in the Tamboli's language of Bengali. Believers can make sure this is available to many throughout Bangladesh, but it will take some creative approaches.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Tambolis would have opportunities to hear about Jesus through the JESUS Film. Pray that their bondage to idols would break in Jesus' name. Many of the Tamboli are illiterate, which prevents economic advancement. Pray that the highly educated Tamboli would bless those in a lower economic status by making education more accessible. Pray that this would be the decade when there is a great harvest and a movement to Christ among the Tamboli people in Bangladesh.

Summary: The history of the Bairagi commences with Ramanuja, who lived in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, and taught in the southern part of India. A proper Bairagi is one whose principal deity is either Vishnu or any of his incarnations, like Rama and Krishna. A mark (tilak) on the forehead and ear are their identification marks. They worship Gouranga as their family deity and Kali, Manasa and Durga as village deities. They are indifferent to the education of girls.
Obstacles: To follow Christ is to risk disturbing community harmony within this Hindu community.
How reach: Much sustained, focused prayer is needed to prepare the hearts of the Bairagi community to understand and receive the good news of Jesus of Nazareth.
Pray for church: Pray the few believers among the Bairagi people will grow in sharing and discussing God's Word with their families and friends. Pray for those that the Lord will soon call to himself. Pray they will be zealous to learn of Christ, and that they will be sent teachers and pastors to help them. Pray they will live holy lives that honor Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Hindu Bairagi community to make schooling for both boys and girls a priority.

Summary: The term Lohar is derived from the Sanskrit word lauha-kara, meaning an ironworker. They have traditionally been a nomadic group, traveling and living in carts. They have at least two endogamous (marry within) subgroups, Gadiwala and Padawala. Each of these subgroups has a number of clans. The Lohar attribute their origins to the god Vishwakarma, who gave them their blacksmithing skills and whom they worship. Their chief deity is Kalkamata, and they also worship Sitalamata and Ram Dev as regional deities. Sacred specialists are engaged from the Brahmin community. They tend to be fervent Hindus.
Obstacles: This large people group is spread throughout most all of South Asia, is somewhat nomadic, and speaks several languages. Many Christian workers and many initiatives will be required to communicate the message of Christ adequately to these people.
How reach: The Lord can raise up the resources needed to reach the Lohar, and we need to pray he will do that. The task is too large for men alone.
Pray for church: This people group lives throughout South Asia, and only in Nepal have a few Lohar identified themselves as Christians. Please pray for these Lohar Christians to be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer, sharing with God's people who are in need, and practicing hospitality.
Pray for p g: A nomadic group such as the Lohar find it very difficult to properly educate their children, and often have little access to medical care. Please pray these problems can somehow be remedied.

Summary: Sutradhar means "thread holder"; they are known for crafting beautiful wood doors, windows, boats, etc. Because of their artisanal skill, some of them work for entrepreneurs in cities. Those who are successful can get paid well, but the majority of Sutradhar are novices and struggle financially.
Obstacles: The Bangladeshis take Sutradhar territory without consent from the government. This forces the Sutradhar people to focus on defending themselves rather than higher matters.
How reach: Believers from outside Bangladesh can purchase their goods and sell them on the international market. This would give believers regular contact with this unreached people group and provide them with a better income.
Pray for church: Very few of the Sutradhar community are followers of Jesus. Pray for the many who will someday come to saving faith.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to thrust out loving believers to the Sutradhar leading to an unstoppable movement to Christ. Pray that these Hindus would be exposed to the good news of Jesus and repent of their sin and follow the Messiah as their new master.

Summary: The Mali are traditionally known as gardeners. The word Mali is derived from the Sanskrit word 'mala' (meaning garland). Many are called 'phool' Mali, referring to their well-known occupation of growing flowers. The Mali are industrious workers and are known for their bravery in the disciplined forces. Many Malis live in towns and keep vegetable or flower gardens in the outskirts. The Mali are also known for the preparation of a 'maur' or marriage crown both for the bride and the bridegroom at marriages. Marriage is forbidden between members of the same sect or first or second cousins. Unlike some Hindu traditions, marriage of widows is permitted. The dead may be either buried or burnt. In the former case the corpse is laid with the feet to the north.
Obstacles: There are probably no Christ followers among these Hindus. Reaching them will be an effort starting from the ground up.
Pray for p g: Ask God for groups of Christians to regularly pray for the Mali in Bangladesh. Pray for the Holy Spirit to guide Christians to the best way to witness the gospel to the Mali community. Ask God to send loving and faithful workers among the Mali to spread God's light to these spiritually needy. Pray for great signs, dreams and wonders among the Mali leading many to salvation in Christ. There are gospel materials in their language that Christ followers can distribute to them. Pray that many will be curious about this information and download it to study it.

Summary: Kapali people are one of the smallest ethnic groups in Bangladesh, and they are settled near different tea gardens. They believe that their ancestors originated from the forehead (Kapal) of Lord Shiva. Therefore, they are known as Kapali.
Obstacles: There are no known Christ followers among Kapali people in Bangladesh. They are Hindu. Instead of resurrection, they believe in reincarnation and the consequences of actions from their previous lives. It is unfathomable for one of them to dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ.
How reach: Audio and visual Bible resources, including the entire Bible, exist in Bengali, the spoken language of Kapali people in Bangladesh. Christ followers could use these to expose them to the gospel.
Pray for p g: Pray that Kapali people in Bangladesh would see that their old system of ethics and beliefs is not working and that their only hope is in Jesus Christ. Pray that intercessors worldwide would regularly pray for God's salvation of the Kapali people. Ask God to transform entire Kapali families and communities for his glory.

Summary: Pashtun culture adheres to an unwritten “code of ethics” called Pushtunwali (the way of the Pashtun). This code outlines behavior that is expected to be followed without question. It includes hospitality and protection for guests, provision of refuge to a fugitive and acceptance of a sincere offer of peace, bravery, steadfastness, persistence, defense of property and family honor, and protection of female relatives. These are values for which death is not too high a price to pay. Though the Taliban is far from Bangladesh, some Pashtuns have made their way to that distant part of South Asia. Like the Bangladeshi majority, they adhere to Sunni Islam.
Obstacles: Members of the Islamic religion are very difficult to influence. Pashtuns who decide to follow Christ are likely to be banished from their families. Consequently, there have been very few spiritual inroads among the Pashtuns wherever they live, including Bangladesh. These passionate people adhere to Islam, even though their code of ethics sometimes supersedes Islamic regulations.
Pray for p g: Pray for peace in the hearts of the Pashtun. Ask God to call those who are willing to go to Bangladesh and share Christ with the Pashtun. Pray that God would encourage and protect the small number of Pashtun believers wherever they live. Ask God to soften the hearts of the Pashtun towards believers so that they will be open to the gospel. Pray for Pashtun disciples who will make more disciples in Bangladesh. Pray for the Lord to raise up tough but loving ambassadors to the Pashtuns in Bangladesh.

Summary: "A community which derives its name from the Sanskrit word talika or taila, used for the oil extracted from sesame and mustard, thus alluding to their traditional occupation... Mythological origin of the Teli is traced to Lord Shiva who created them to destroy five demons. However, their legend also says that the first Teli was created by Shiva to rub him with oil." (Singh, K. S., India's Communities, p. 3462) Much of this oil-pressing caste has developed into small village grocers and merchants, demonstrating upward socio-economic mobility.
Obstacles: The perception of Christiandom as an invading influence that breaks up families and promotes many social problems is a serious obstacle to Teli families and communities humbly accepting God's blessing for families through Jesus.
How reach: Pray for discovery Bible studies to spread rapidly in blessing whole Teli families and communities.
Pray for church: There are a few followers of Christ among the Teli. Pray that these will be fruitful and effective in sharing God's Word and blessing to strengthen their own families and spread God's blessing to other Teli households.
Pray for p g: Pray that a strong movement to Jesus will bring whole Teli families and communities into a rich experience of God's blessing.

Summary: When a Dhobi girl marries, her dowry usually contains just a few items, but almost always an iron is included. After Dhobi men wash the customers' clothes, the women iron them and keep the money they earn to pay for household expenses. Mothers teach the girls to iron at an early age, and boys help their fathers by washing the smaller articles of clothing and by delivering packages of clean clothes to their owners. With washing machines becoming more prevalent, the Dhobi livelihood is in danger.
Obstacles: There are few or no Christ followers among the Hindu Dhobi in Bangladesh. All they know is Hinduism, and possibly Islam since their neighbors are Muslim. Few will ever meet a Christ follower.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Dhobi will hear the gospel and discover that Jesus Christ can wash away their sins. Pray that believers will tactfully share gospel recordings and play Christian radio broadcasts for Dhobi Hindus. Pray that the Holy Spirit will give faith to the Dhobi.

Summary: Most Tipera people live in India's northeastern Tripura state, but some live further east in Bangladesh. Tipera families follow a unique inheritance pattern. The oldest son automatically has all rights to his father's property, but if he leaves the home to live on his own while the father is still living, he forfeits all rights to his inheritance. The inheritance eventually is given to the oldest son still living in the home. Daughters and other sons receive nothing. The Tipera only marry within their own tribe. Promiscuity before marriage is freely tolerated among the Tipera, but accidental pregnancies lead to immediate marriage. Married couples usually do not have their own homes until they have had several children. Tipera women are especially fond of wearing jewelry.
Obstacles: These people follow several spiritual practices that leave no room for a sin-forgiving savior.
How reach: Christian organizations can address the multitude of community needs among the Tipera people. There are also thousands of vibrant Christians in nearby northeastern India.
Pray for p g: Ask the Lord to send forth laborers who understand the culture and needs of the Tipera. Pray that God will save key Tipera leaders who will have opportunities to share the love of Christ with their own people. Ask God to raise up prayer teams who will begin breaking up the spiritual soil through worship and intercession.

Summary: The word Patni has to do with ferrying by boat. They have a low status in Hindu society. Most are landowners who work in farming, though others are day laborers. They avoid marrying relatives on the side of the father for five generations. Though most Patni live in India, there is also a sizable Patni community in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: They have a low literacy level so the gospel message will need to be presented in oral form.
Pray for p g: Pray for families of believers loving and serving others to grow reproducing churches. Pray for a chain reaction of Patni families reaching families that results in thousands of new believers who share their faith with others. There are vibrant Christ followers in northeastern India who can reach out to the Hindu Patni in Bangladesh; pray for them to reach out to these Hindus. Pray for grace and truth to expand into the entire Hindu Patni society as all believers learn to love others. Pray that churches and believers will bless their entire people group in such a way that God's love will change the Hindu Patni like yeast changes dough.

Summary: Baidya is a Sanskrit word denoting medical practitioners. The Baidya are largely landless and have practised ayurvedic medicine as their traditional occupation. They belong to the Vaishnava and Shakta sects of Hinduism. They worship Lakshmi, Madan Gopal, Satima, etc., as their family deities, Kali and Shiva as village deities, and Naraharithakur and Gouranga Mahapravu as regional deities.
Obstacles: There are no known followers of Christ among the Baidya of Bangladesh.
How reach: The primary language of the Baidya community is Bengali. Many good Christian resources are available in this language. Please pray for workers to carry these resources to the people.
Pray for church: There are a few Christians in this community in India. Pray for these to grow in their faith and in numbers. Perhaps some will carry the message of Christ to their own community living in Bangladesh.
Pray for p g: Pray the Baidya community will increasingly be made aware of their need to know forgiveness for their sin, and will accurately learn of Christ, who he is and what he has done for them.

Summary: The Tamboli derive their name from the Sanskrit term for betel leaves. Tambul or betel leaf packing is the primary source of their income. Many Tamboli work as small business traders and hardware shop owners because of their higher or “clean” caste status.
Obstacles: The Tamboli believe there is one god, Allah, whose will is revealed through the prophet Mohammed. They must recite prayers several times each day and follow a strict regimen of works to please their distant and impersonal god. This belief system has created a barrier to the truth of the gospel that only Almighty God can transcend.
Pray for p g: Pray that the betel leaf and areca nut industry would be penetrated with the gospel so that many Tamboli, whether Muslims or Hindus, will know the God who gives abundant life. Pray that the Holy Spirit would give the opportunity for the JESUS Film to be shown to the Tamboli and that they would have hearts open to the Savior. The entire Bible has been translated into Bengali, the spoken language of the Tamboli in Bangladesh. Audio and visual resources also exist. Pray for someone to take these resources to the Tamboli.

Summary: The Tanti are weavers. They were known for their great skill in weaving and the ability to produce both fine linens as well as more common fabrics. Not too long ago, virtually every home would have had a loom and cloth present. Today, much of their trade has been taken over by factory production and imported goods. Many are now doing subsistence-level work either weaving or other manual labor within villages where they often do not have clean water or a steady food supply. A few have moved into cities and achieved an education and greater roles in society. This is still, however, limited to a small percentage of the overall people group.
Obstacles: There are probably no Christians among the Tanti, nor are there many in the parts of India where they also live. Few will ever hear the life-saving gospel unless messengers bring the wonderful gospel to them.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Tanti to have adequate potable water. Pray for a spiritual hunger among Tanti leaders that will open this Hindu community to the gospel. Pray for Tanti disciples who will make more disciples. Pray for loving and dedicated workers. The Tanti speak Bengali, a language with all kinds of gospel materials. Pray for these materials to reach them and for them to have open hearts.

Summary: The Sadgope Yadav of Bangladesh are mostly agricultural. Many own land and raise cattle in the eastern regions of Bangladesh.
Obstacles: The Sadgope Yadav practice Hinduism and claim to be descendants of King Yadu, which gives them a sense of high honor. They tend to look down on other Bangladeshis and this pride could be a barrier to following Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to reveal himself to the Sadgope Yadav. Pray for these proud people to humble themselves, repent and receive forgiveness in Christ. Pray for God to send workers who are filled with the Holy Spirit to share the gospel with the Sadgope Yadav. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Sadgope Yadev in both Bangladesh and India. Pray for those who come to Christ to be bold in sharing their faith.

Summary: The Paliya are a scheduled caste, so they have low to middle status. They have three subgroups. They speak, read and write in Bengali. Many of them are landless. They work mainly in agriculture. Some are in business and there are some government workers among them. Hinduism is their religion. A Hindu might worship hundreds of gods or no god at all. They worship to gain merit and favor.
Obstacles: The Paliya are generally not well educated so the gospel will need to be given in oral form. Without any Christ followers in their community, they will need to hear it from cultural outsiders, some of which they don't trust.
Pray for p g: Pray for workers who are filled with the fruit and the power of the Holy Spirit to go to the Paliya. Pray for his kingdom to come and his will to be done among the Paliya. Pray for a movement of Paliya households to study the Bible and accept the blessings of Christ. Pray for a spiritual hunger that will drive the Paliya to the arms of Jesus. Pray that they would see that the gods they worship are powerless and unable to meet their spiritual needs. Gospel materials are abundant in Bengali, the language of the Paliya. Pray for these to be easily obtained and used.

Summary: The Ghazi are also known as Ghazi Khel and Ghazi Miyan. Historically they have a Rajput background, which means they have a warrior tradition and a reputation for bravery. In India they are most likely to be found in West Bengal, but far more of them live in Bangladesh. Today many of the Ghazi people have been involved with government and politics. Most are involved with farming, small business or trade. They have high status in Muslim Bangladesh.
Obstacles: High status often means pride in one's station in life. The only way to approach the Lord is as a humble child.
How reach: There are many gospel materials in the Bengali language spoken by the Ghazi people. These can be downloaded from their computers.
Pray for p g: Pray for loving gospel workers to catch a vision for reaching the Ghazi people for Jesus and that in God's sovereign timing the hearts of these people would be open and ready to follow him. Pray for Jesus movements to bless extended families so the gospel will spread rapidly. Pray for the spiritual lives of the Ghazi people to become fruitful so others will be drawn to Jesus Christ.

Summary: The Hindu Bhuinmali people are mainly a landless agricultural group, though some work for government agencies. Considered a Scheduled Caste, they are from the Bengali language cluster of people groups. Not surprisingly, they live mainly in the Bengali-speaking parts of India and Bangladesh.
Obstacles: Few Bhuinmali identify as Christian believers while the rest identify as Hindu. They believe in their god's mighty wrath towards them, not in the mercy of their god. The legend about Shiva, the Hindu god of destruction, says that he punished the people group forever by banishing them from the caste system because one of them admired his wife. They still worship this god.
How reach: The believers within their Scheduled Caste can best reach their own people because of their deep understanding of the culture. However, others who wish to reach them can utilize the Bengali language translation of Scripture, the JESUS Film, and other gospel materials.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Kingdom of God to come to the Bhuinmalis and help them understand that they have the dignity of being created in the image of God. Pray that they would hunger for God's truth and compassion and that there would soon be a movement to Christ among them.

Summary: The Buna people have birth and marriage rituals. Most of the Buna people live in Odisha in the Puri District and Cuttack, but a smaller number are in Bangladesh. This group speaks, reads and writes in Bengali. The main work of the Buna is weaving. They weave saris among other items. Some work in agriculture. On the death of the father, the sons inherit the property with the oldest son becoming the new head of the household. The Buna are not vegetarians. The Buna are Hindus by religion and culture. They worship ancestors along with various Hindu gods.
Obstacles: When there are no Christ followers in a people group or nearby, it means that they will probably never meet someone who has accepted the abundant life offered by the only savior.
How reach: All kinds of gospel materials are available in Bengali, the language of this Hindu people.
Pray for p g: Pray that gospel materials and the internet will lead the Buna to begin their own movement to Christ. Pray for Christian believers to take it upon themselves to pray fervently for the Buna people and to go to them with the blessings of Jesus Christ. Pray for a spiritual hunger that will lead them to Jesus Christ.

Summary: The Ho are known for their independent nature, which has historically separated them from the rule of powerful Hindus. The tribe's culture is intertwined with the natural world. They are most comfortable in the forest environment that supplies many of their necessities. Their major agricultural crop is rice, which they ferment to make beer.
Obstacles: The New Testament is printed in the Ho language and some mission agencies work among them. Mission efforts have led to a small community of Christ followers, but there is a need for more outreach.
How reach: Utilizing the availability of the New Testament and the already existing connections with the Ho will help to reach them. Prayer will also be an important tool.
Pray for church: Pray that the church would thrive and that they would spread the word to their neighbors. Pray that all conflict within the church would be resolved peacefully, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Ho people to be able to make their own spiritual decisions, free from outside pressures. Pray for a disciple making movement for the Ho people. Pray for their physical needs to be met by the Lord, leading them to put their faith in him alone.

Summary: Sardar is used as a title of respect among Muslims throughout South Asia, especially among the Pashtuns. It means "chief" or "leader." That title is given to men with positions of authority in villages or in government. Bangladesh is a Muslim country, so the Sardars have much respect in their nation. They have political clout and influence in social areas.
Obstacles: People with high status are not likely to want to associate with Christians in South Asia. Christians are almost always from low status communities.
How reach: There are plenty of gospel materials in Bengali, the language of the Sardar people.
Pray for church: Pray for many from this unreached people group to understand both God's judgment and his majestic glory. Pray for loving workers to go to the Sardar people, and for their hearts to be ready to receive their savior. Pray for a chain reaction of families reaching families that result in thousands of new disciples who share their faith with others. Pray for grace and truth expanding into their entire society as all believers learn to love others.

Summary: The Bagdi are divided into 14 major sub-groups. Most of them live in West Bengal. Some are agricultural and masonry laborers, but fishing is their main occupation. The Bagdi are from a lower class, but according to legend, they are descendants of a Kshatriya father and Vaishya mother, both of which are prestigious castes.
Obstacles: The practice of Hinduism is central to the Bagdi culture and identity. They visit Hindu temples and offer prayers, food, flowers and incense to their gods in hopes of gaining protection and favor. This is where their faith lies.
How reach: The Bagdi worship a pantheon of gods but have no personal relationship with any of them. The Good News of a personal savior who gave his life for their forgiveness and salvation could be well received.
Pray for p g: Pray for God to draw the Bagdi to himself, opening their hearts and minds to the truth of Jesus Christ. Ask him to set them free from any spiritual bondage and to establish his church among them. Pray that soon there will be Hindu Bagdi disciples making disciples of others.

Summary: Their name, Nikari, is related to doing good. The Nikari work selling fish and growing fruit. They have a community council to help them. Girls are educated but not as much as boys. They speak, read and write in Bengali. They are not vegetarians and eat wheat and rice as cereals. The Nikari are endogamous, that is, they prefer to marry only within their community. The divorced and bereaved can marry again. On the death of the father, daughters get less of the property than the sons with the oldest son taking charge of family matters.
Obstacles: When there are no Christ followers in a community, it is very difficult for anyone to go against what their families have taught them.
How reach: Those who want to take Christ to the Muslim Nikari will want to first reach family leaders. If they are convinced, they can open the door for their entire family.
Pray for p g: Pray for teams of believers to do sustained, focused prayer for the Lord to open the hearts of Nikari family leaders to experience God's blessing through a movement of family-based discovery Bible studies. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give the Muslim Nikari people teachable and understanding hearts. Pray for a strong movement of the Holy Spirit will bring entire Nikari families into a rich experience of God's blessing.

Summary: The Hadi are one of the lowest status groups in Hindu society. They are relegated to the lowest most menial jobs, and for the Hadi, that means jobs like collecting trash and sweeping the streets.
Obstacles: Like other Hindus, the Hadi are fearful of rejecting the traditional religion of their people. To leave Hinduism would be to risk excommunication from their families and losing relationships with loved ones. Those who hear the gospel are reluctant to consider it, despite the freedom from bondage it offers.
How reach: Following Christ is a foreign concept to the Hadi. Reaching them will require an insider movement in which Hadi people share the good news with others from their community, testifying to the truth of Christ and demonstrating God's love.
Pray for p g: Ask God to send his Spirit to soften hearts and prepare them to receive and respond to his gift of salvation. Pray for the Lord to speak to key members of the Hadi community who will then share Christ with their families and friends until there is a movement to Christ.

Summary: Rice is the basic means of economic support for the Burmese in Bangladesh. They use oxen and water buffaloes to draw the heavy wooden plows and seldom have access to modern farm equipment. Fish is also an important part of their diet. Marriages are monogamous and rarely arranged by the parents. They encourage young couples to live together and only marry after the girl becomes pregnant. Newlyweds live with the bride's parents for the first few two or three years after marriage. Then they set up their own homes.
Obstacles: The Burmese are dedicated to Buddhism, and it is central to their identity.
How reach: Their animistic beliefs center around inherently evil spirits called nats. The Burmese spend their lives trying to appease the nats which Jesus Christ has already defeated. Christian believers who are familiar with spiritual warfare can demonstrate his power over these spirits.
Pray for p g: Pray the hearts of the Burmese people in Bangladesh would be stirred by a work of the Holy Spirit readying them for the time when they hear the gospel message. Pray they will experience dreams and visions of Jesus leading them into a saving relationship with him. Pray for an unstoppable movement to Christ among the Burmese people.

Summary: It seems likely that this caste is a remnant of one of the races who occupied the valley of the Ganges before the coming of the Aryans. The Brahmin are their sacred priests. One of the main ceremonies associated with marriage is to circle the sacred fire seven times. In villages some are engaged in carrying water for high-ranking communities in the event of marriage, death and other occasions.
Obstacles: The worldview of the Kahar is very different than the Biblical worldview.
How reach: Tools (Jesus film, recordings, videos, etc.) are available in most of the languages spoken by the Kahar community, but workers are needed to carry these tools to the people.
Pray for church: We trust the Lord will soon call out his followers from among the Kahar community. Pray they will be patient with each other, bearing with one another in love.
Pray for p g: Pray the Kahar will understand that Jesus desires to bless their families and clans, not harm them. Pray they will be able to raise their standard of living, and be well equipped for the challenges of the 21st century.

Summary: Though most members of the Halwai community live in India, today we are praying for this Hindu community living in the predominantly Muslim country of Bangladesh. As is traditionally true of most Hindu castes, its members usually focus on one primary type of job. The Halwai are a caste of sweet makers and confectioners. The Hindu communities respect them because of the importance of sweets in both their religion as well as in festivals associated with childbirth and marriage. Now, many Halwai have branched out into other occupations, such as medicine and engineering. The Halwai are primarily vegetarians. It is rare to see the Halwai marry outside of their caste.
Obstacles: It is difficult for evangelists or believers to find a point of common interests with Hindus who worship many gods. Their main gods are Shiva, Rama, Krishna, and Ganesh.
How reach: Unlike some other castes, they believe in educating both boys and girls, which suggests they value education. Often the highly educated are more open to "new" ideas, and it may be easier to have some intentional and meaningful conversations with them about Jesus Christ, the only one who can save them from their sin.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to bless the Halwai people materially and spiritually. Pray for a movement to Christ.

Summary: The Tili tribe is a subgroup of the Bengali people and one of the oldest indigenous peoples in that part of the world. Their language is known as Tili or Bengal-Tili. Though the majority live in India, some live in the Rangpur Division of Bangladesh. Vermilion, bracelets, a finger-ring, earrings, and a nose-stud are the symbols of married women, but this varies by location. Marriage is solemnized according to Hindu Vedic rites at the bride's residence.
Obstacles: There are probably no Christians among the Tili people in Bangladesh to evangelize their own people. They will need to hear the gospel from cultural outsiders.
How reach: The Tili people speak Bengali, a language with an abundance of gospel materials.
Pray for church: Pray for loving disciplers to go to the Tili people and teach them to obey all Jesus taught. Pray the Tili people in Bangladesh will understand their need for Jesus Christ as the only savior from sin and death. Pray for the light of the gospel to penetrate the hearts and minds of Tili elders.

Summary: Many Barman in Bangladesh work as sharecroppers on others' land. Sharecroppers get a small percentage of the produce while the rest goes to the landowner. The Barman grow rice, wheat, vegetables, and betel nut. Betel nut is a mild stimulant used in south Asia. The Barman make and sell bamboo items for cash. These include pipes for smoking, fishing poles, mats, and furniture. Some Barda men work in the construction trades and logging. The Barman marry within their group but not within their particular clan. Families arrange marriages. The newly married couples often live with or near the groom's parents. Each Barman village has a chief. He settles legal disputes, and no community activity can take place without his permission.
Obstacles: Hinduism breeds a worldview that does not allow for one God or one way to salvation and spiritual peace.
How reach: The Barman would benefit with access to modern medicine. Christian run medical clinics would be welcome in their communities.
Pray for p g: Pray for loving gospel workers to catch a vision for reaching the Barman people for Jesus and that in God's sovereign timing the hearts of these people would be open and ready to follow him. Pray for Jesus movements to bless extended families so the gospel will spread rapidly. Pray for the spiritual lives of the Barman people to become fruitful so others will be drawn to Jesus Christ.

Summary: The Mru are primarily located in the region where the borders of India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar intersect. The tribal Mru are a very isolated people, mainly because of a national policy restricting visitors in the strategic border areas and prohibiting outsiders from obtaining land there. They are a very poor people. Although they inhabit a region that is rich in lumber and hydroelectric potential, the villagers lack the technology and knowledge to improve their economic conditions. The Mru excuse their poverty because they believe that Torai intended them to live this way. There are no educational facilities among the Mru. Virtually all of the Mru of India and Bangladesh practice a mixture of Buddhism and ethnic religions. They worship the gods of fire, water, and the forest, and Torai, the great spirit.
Obstacles: The Mru have a very low literacy rate, and the Gospel needs to come to them in both oral and written forms.
How reach: Please pray that workers trained in telling stories from scripture will be able to contact the Mru, and that the Mru tribe will welcome them.
Pray for church: There are some in the Mru community who have reported themselves as Christians to the census. Please pray these people will come to a clear understanding of what it means to know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
Pray for p g: Pray the Mru tribe will see the importance of preparing their youth to cope in this rapidly changing age. They need to know how to read, and they need skills to make themselves employable.

Summary: Kurmi is the name given to a Hindu caste residing in India and Bangladesh. The Kurmi are believed to be descendants of some of the earliest Aryan immigrants to India and come from the Kshatriyas (warrior caste) who later became farmers. Kurmi are known in India as a chief agricultural caste. Those in Bangladesh probably have lower status.
Obstacles: A key issue for the Kurmi is their desire to be recognized by other castes as belonging to the high status warrior caste. High caste status gives them a false sense of pride. Hopefully this caste consciousness is less prevalent in Bangladesh, a Muslim country where Hindus are a minority.
How reach: The Kurmi people live in some of the least reached parts of South Asia. It might take radio and TV broadcasts for them to hear of the glory of Christ.
Pray for church: Pray that the few Kurmi believers will have the power and the fruit of the Holy Spirit so that they can draw others to Him.
Pray for p g: Pray for Holy Spirit-directed workers to go to the Kurmi people in Bangladesh. Pray that the Kurmi people may realize that Jesus is their only hope for salvation. The Lion of Judah is offering the Kurmi the right to become a special people if they put their sense of worth in the person of Jesus Christ rather than in caste status. Pray for this to happen. Pray for a strong church planting movement among the Kurmi people in India and Bangladesh.

Summary: Sources describe the Muslim Mallik as those who have converted from Hinduism in the past. Farming has been a traditional vocation, but the Mallik are presently engaged in other vocations as well. A married woman wears a nose-stud as a symbol of a marriage. Their traditional community council consists of nine members who are elected by a voice vote for a period of one year. In most areas they freely associate with other Muslim groups, but in a few areas there are social restrictions in place for certain Muslim groups. They are Sunni Muslims.
Obstacles: Anyone coming to Christ in a Muslim community is likely to experience ostracism, or worse. Fear of rejection by family and friends is a strong deterrent.
How reach: Muslims already know of Jesus (whom they call Isa al-Masih), and honor him as a prophet. Perhaps the Lord will reveal himself more fully to many in the Mallik community. Please pray for this to occur.
Pray for church: The Mallik live in India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan, but there are no known Christians among them in any of these countries. However, please pray for any secret believers there may be, and pray for those who will soon come to Christ in each of these three countries.
Pray for p g: Please pray for strong conviction of sin for this people group, that they will yearn for a Savior. Pray they will not receive satisfaction from a religion that offers no promise of eternal life, and no power to live abundantly in this life, as Jesus promised those who follow him.

Summary: The name of the Dholi people comes from the word dhol, meaning a type of drum. The role of the dholi is to create rhythm and set the tempo for singing and dancing during festivals, weddings and religious events. Bengali Muslims view the dholi as a group that helps them maintain their traditions and culture. The majority of the Muslim Dholi live in Bangladesh. Most of them are now farmers. They still manage to make sure their sons and sometimes their daughters go to school at an earlier age. Their children usually work by the time they are 15, so educational opportunities are limited.
Obstacles: Islam is a major impediment to accepting the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Muslims do not have an outlet for their sins to be paid; they rely on the mercy of Allah.
How reach: There are gospel materials, including the New Testament and the JESUS Film in their Sylheti language. They can find these online.
Pray for church: Pray for the lives and culture of the Muslim Dholi people to evidence the rule and reign of the Kingdom of God as they open to the gospel. Pray for a movement of Dholi households to study the Bible and accept the blessings of Christ. Pray for the hearts of Dholi family leaders to experience God's blessing through a movement of family-based discovery Bible studies.

Summary: The Pinjara derive their name from the term pinjala meaning "cotton weaver." Their traditional occupation is cleaning and reeling cotton to make pillows, quilts and mattresses. Pinjara people celebrate Hindu festivals, making vows to Hindu gods although they are Muslim. They are not vegetarian, but they do not eat pork.
Obstacles: Very little ministry activity has been focused on the Pinjara people. Many Bengali resources are available although there is a severe lack of workers to this sizable unreached Muslim group. Pinjara people are not well accepted because they blend two belief systems.
How reach: The JESUS Film is available in Bengali. Showing this film would be a visible medium to broadcast the truth of the gospel to this unreached people group.
Pray for p g: Pray for many from this large unreached people group to understand both God's judgment and his majestic glory. Pray for faithful intercessors to rise up among Pinjara people until there is a strong movement to Christ among them. Pray for a spiritual hunger that will lead them into a disciple making movement.

Summary: How would life be different without electricity? Most Tiyar people live in villages with little access to electricity or indoor plumbing, and the Bangladeshi government is working to improve their living conditions. The Tiyar people of Bangladesh and India are named after the Sanskrit word for "hunters."
Obstacles: The Tiyar people are Hindu, and they believe that they will achieve a form of spiritual freedom through their good deeds. They need a hunger for the spiritual freedom that only Jesus Christ can offer.
How reach: Fortunately, the JESUS Film is available in the Tiyar's language, Bengali. Bengali-speaking believers can take this film to them.
Pray for p g: Many Tiyar are fishermen. Pray that they would deeply connect with Jesus' call to be fishers of men. When the fishing season is not good, the Tiyar people suffer greatly. Pray that they would find ways to diversify their economy so that they can rely on other industries for income. Pray that education would become more accessible, so the next generation can continue advancing their society. Pray that Jesus would captivate the hearts of key Tiyar leaders and use them to begin a movement to Christ in Bangladesh.

Summary: The Radhi Brahmins are mainly in India's eastern state of West Bengal, but also in Dhaka and other provinces of Bangladesh. Brahmins are the key community that has traditionally upheld Hinduism. Though Brahmins have their origins as priests and gurus, most Radhis have other occupations in today's world. Some benefit from owning farmland while others are businessmen.
Obstacles: Since they have the highest status of any Hindu community, Brahmins believe that they have everything to lose by converting to another religious system, and most believe that switching to a "different god" will result in an inferior reincarnation after they die. High caste communities like the Brahmins often have pride in their status, and pride is an enemy of faith.
How reach: To reach them for Christ, someone will have to enter their world and learn how to communicate in the Brahmin way. This will involve much listening and learning before speaking.
Pray for p g: Pray that the light of the gospel would break through the veil that blinds this community. Pray that the Holy Spirit would reveal Christ to this community and use Brahmins to preach and teach about Jesus Christ to all Hindu communities. Pray for a massive movement to Christ in the Radhi community.

Summary: The term lohar refers to blacksmith, or iron worker. Many are involved in some aspect of metal work, but increasingly they are involved in other trades, as well. Many are somewhat nomadic, traveling and living in carts. Muslim Lohar are sometimes known as Saifis, and Hindu Lohar may be known as Vishvakarmas. Literacy levels are generally low, but in some areas literacy is improving. The Lohar have a number of clans, and marriages cross clan lines but not community (people group) lines. Women work alongside the men, but are considered of lower status than men. Muslim Lohar are Sunni Muslims, and revere Muslim saints such as Maqdoom Sahib and Miraj Shah.
Obstacles: Spiritual opposition to the Gospel is always an issue, perhaps especially so in South Asia. Much prayer is needed to withstand spiritual opposition.
How reach: Please pray for more Christian workers to become available throughout South Asia. These are needed for evangelism to occur, but also to teach and shepherd those who will come to Christ as believers. Trained and anointed workers are essential for the advance of the Gospel.
Pray for church: None of the Mohar have identified themselves as Christians to the census in Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, or Nepal. If there are believers among them they are few, and they need our prayers. Pray that any believers will find each other, to learn from each other, and for fellowship.
Pray for p g: The children of partially nomadic groups such as the Lohar often receive very little education. Please pray for schooling to somehow become available and that parents will understand the importance of education for their children. Factory made iron products are lessening the need for those who know how to manufacture articles from iron, and the people need to learn new skills.

Summary: Abduls live throughout South Asia, including Bangladesh. Many Abdul people work as alms gatherers while singing and drumming or selling perfume. Abduls wake up early and go to villages, playing their dafali (instrument) and singing the names of Allah.
Obstacles: There is tremendous social pressure against anyone turning away from Islam to a different faith.
How reach: Their primary language is Bengali, though some understand Urdu and Bhojpuri. Gospel materials exist in these languages. There are also vibrant Bhojpuri speaking believers in India who can reach them in Bangladesh. Abdul people traditionally share food and water with most Hindu communities. Abdul people in Bangladesh may be more reachable than other Muslim people.
Pray for church: Pray that there would soon be a church planting movement among the Abdul people.
Pray for p g: Pray that this people group would learn to fear the name of Almighty God and would be healed in their bodies, souls and spirits.

Summary: The Dhobi name means "wash," and this identifies their trade of being clothes washers. Despite the painful physical problems they endure in their work, older Dhobis often work hard so that their children can have an education and advance. There are many young Dhobis now working in the government, trade, business and other professions. Though most Dhobis are Hindu, many are Muslim.
Obstacles: For these Dhobi, being Muslim is part of their cultural identity. Working hard to provide for their families and praying to Allah are very important to them. To change any of this means they risk losing what is most important in their difficult lives, which are their families and religion.
How reach: Believers can develop friendships with the Dhobis as they bring clothes to them to be washed, which can lead to personal conversations that involve stories of Christ. Younger Dhobis are going into other fields of work, which may open more opportunities to have contact with Christ followers or open their availability to the internet or radio Bible programs.
Pray for p g: Pray the Muslim Dhobi would come to know Jesus and hear his teaching, such as Matthew 11:29 - "Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Pray for a Holy Spirit-led Disciple Making Movement among the Muslim Dhobis in Bangladesh.

Summary: The Vania people are also called Bania or Mahajan. The word Vania is derived from 'Vaniji', which means 'trader' in Sanskrit. The Vania community has gotras (clans).Many of their clan names are based on the names of the place they are from. Business, trade, jewellery-making and agriculture are the traditional occupations of the Vania. Floor painting and folk songs represent the Vania's art and culture. The naming of the newborn ritual is performed by a Jangam priest by putting a thread around the infant's neck. Most live in India, but there are some in Bangladesh and other South Asian countries.
Obstacles: Wealth is an impediment to the gospel. People with much wealth are often numb to their spiritual needs.
How reach: They speak Hindi, a language with a plethora of gospel materials that they can obtain.
Pray for p g: For the salvation of the Bania people and that God may send several Christian workers among them and meet their spiritual and physical needs. Pray for developmental and literacy programs among the people.

Summary: The Hindu Nai people fact two reasons to be discriminated against in Bangladesh. They are Hindus, which puts them at odds with the Muslim majority. To make matters worse for them, they are from a low Hindu caste. Cutting hair or doing anything else which involves bodily functions is considered work for those of low status. This low status applies to them no matter which South Asian country they reside. Some try to make up for it by taking on surnames associated with Brahmins.
Obstacles: Few of these Hindus living in a Muslim land have heard that only Jesus Christ can save us from our sins and from eternal death. Someone needs to make a special effort to reach them.
How reach: People who know the gospel can become regular customers of the Nai people, win their trust, and eventually share what Christ has done for all nations.
Pray for church: As far as we know there are few if any followers of Christ among the Nai people in Bangladesh with a Hindu background.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Nai people in Bangladesh will find their peace in Jesus and be freed mentally from being second-class citizens due to their caste ranking. Pray that the Holy Spirit will call many Nai people to Himself, and use them to gossip the gospel to many others in Bangladesh. Pray for a disciple making movement among the Nai people in Bangladesh and India.

Summary: In Hindi, Darzi means "tailor." For hundreds of years, they were highly respected for their craftsmanship throughout their communities in north India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. Their shops were where people gathered to read newspapers, share news and socialize. However, global modernization in mass production of clothes has replaced this. Some now work in clothing factories, sell ready-made clothes, and a few are clothing designers. Many younger Darzi have chosen other professions such as teaching, business and government jobs. The majority of Darzi people in Bangladesh are Muslim.
Obstacles: The Darzi were a central focus in their communities, but today they are more isolated and harder to reach by outsiders who want to take them the spiritual truths of Jesus Christ. As Muslims, they are often warned by their clergy that the Bible and Christianity are full of errors.
How reach: Believers need to take the time to seek out the Darzi in their communities to develop lasting friendships with them. May their lives draw the Darzi to want to know God's living grace found in Jesus.
Pray for p g: Pray that God's servants would be strong in faith and prepared to lead the Darzi people to his living word and salvation found in Jesus. Pray for an unstoppable movement to Christ among the Muslim Darzi people that will expand to other people groups in Bangladesh.

Summary: The name Rajput is derived from the Sanskrit word rajputra, meaning son of a ruler. The Rajputra constitutes a class of nobility. The Rajput clans emerged as a dominant community in north and western India in the colonial period. The economic data suggests that the majority of Rajput are landowners. A large number of communities have migrated to their present habitat, and this has made them one of the most mobile groups in India.
Obstacles: Fear that Christianity aims to turn individuals from their families, communities and traditions hinders Rajput families and communities from considering the Gospel.
How reach: Sustained, focused prayer is needed to open the hearts of Rajput families to experiencing God's blessing through a movement of family-based discovery Bible studies.
Pray for church: Pray for the few Rajput believers to be effective at engaging their families and communities in discussing Bible stories and experiencing God's blessing.
Pray for p g: Pray that a strong movement to Jesus will bring whole Rajput families and communities into a rich experience of God's blessings.

Summary: The community name Qassab in Arabic means "to cut." They claim that their origin is from Arabia. They are a professional Muslim caste of butchers and slaughterers of animals and selling meat. Many of them are now engaged in business or work as daily-wage labors. The Qassab people practice both child and adult marriage. They also perform group marriages. Normally only the husband can divorce his wife, however the wife is also entitled to seek divorce through her parents. Like other Muslims, they circumcise the boys. The Qassab has a council known as Jamat, which constitutes of five chosen members. All types of disputes are referred to the Jamat. They adhere to the Islamic code of conduct regarding marriage, divorce, remarriage and the inheritance of property. Though most live in India, some are in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: The Qassab community is highly committed to the Islamic religion. They are not open to hearing about Christ's blood sacrifice.
How reach: Bengali is the main language in Bangladesh, and the Qassab people speak it. There are many gospel materials in Bengali that they can obtain online.
Pray for church: Pray for God to send several workers to work among them and meet their spiritual and physical needs. Pray for a powerful movement to Christ among the Qassab people in Bangladesh. Pray for spiritual openness and discernment.

Summary: The Pod, or Poundara Kshatriya, live in five countries of South Asia, with their largest population in West Bengal state, India. They are a Scheduled Caste in West Bengal, which entitles them to certain government benefits. Traditional occupations include farming and fishing. They are divided into four sub-castes, the Bagaude, Bangla, Kit Khota (or Mouna), and Oriya. Marriages generally only occur within these sub-castes. The women use vermilion (red pigment) and shell bracelets as symbols of marriage. A Bengali Brahmin priest officiates at their marriage rituals. Mangala, Sitala, and Manasa are village deities. Spiritual specialists are consulted for removing evil spirits and curing diseases.
Obstacles: Lack of workers available to take the good news of Jesus to the Pod community is an obvious problem. Jesus said we should pray for workers, for the harvest is ready.
How reach: The Pod speak only the Bengali language in Bangladesh, which may simplify outreach to them. Bengali has many good Christian resources available, including a fairly recent translation of the complete Bible.
Pray for church: Several hundred Pod individuals have identified themselves as Christians to the census of India. Please pray these Christians will be obedient to the teachings of Christ and will live holy, joyful lives in the power of the Lord's Spirit.
Pray for p g: Pray the Pod community will be completely set free from evil spirits and demonic influences of all kinds.

Summary: Rajput Muslims in Bangladesh are often an agricultural community. As land has been lost, a growing number have become employed in service and even wage labor jobs. Women can often be found in weaving, embroidery and the making of handkerchiefs. For women, toe rings, nose pins and glass bangles are common symbols for being married. They are non-vegetarian though avoid beef and enjoy foods like wheat, rice and pulses. They are Sunni Muslims but with much influence by Hindu traditions they retain a variety of Hindu practices.
Obstacles: High status is greatly valued in South Asian countries like Bangladesh. A Rajput would need to associate with people of lower status if they became Christian. Most Christians are from low-status backgrounds.
How reach: Muslim Rajputs in Bangladesh speak Bengali, a language with many gospel materials they can obtain.
Pray for church: Pray for the Lord to do a miracle and give these people the chance to respond to Jesus Christ. Pray for Muslim Rajputs to make disciples who will make more disciples. Pray for the Lord to give their elders dreams and visions that will open their communities to the Lord of lords.

Summary: The Turi are a Hindu people group who live in Bangladesh and northeast India. Their primary language is Bengali, and most live in the states of Rangpur, Rajshahi and Chittagong. They lead challenging lives. Many other groups of Hindus will not associate with them. The traditional occupation of the Turi involves making useful things from bamboo.
Obstacles: The Turi are rejected by other Hindu communities. They may be hesitant to trust outsiders.
How reach: Many of the Turi cannot read. Evangelists skilled in music can teach gospel concepts through songs and skits. Turi people can learn the songs and learn the ways of Christ and teach them to others.
Pray for church: Pray that believers among them would be elevated in their communities and that the word would be spread to those who need to hear it. Pray the church would grow in a healthy way, led by the power and goodness of the Holy Spirit.
Pray for p g: Pray the Turi would have good education and healthcare that help improve their communities. Pray that literacy rates would be improved so they can provide for their families.

Summary: The Qazi community derive their name from the term qadi which means "judge." They have a tradition of being the religious leaders or imams among the Muslim groups. The Qazi are skilled in art of Islamic religious rites and tend to perform the traditional ceremonies for the greater Muslim community. They perform the birth, purification, marriage, death and burial rites. The Qazi are Muslims of the Hanafi tradition and virtually 100% Muslim in India, Nepal and Bangladesh.
Obstacles: They enjoy a high social status because of the general and religious education. High status people are often reluctant to embrace the gospel of humble repentance.
How reach: The Qazi are a very strategic community to bring to faith in Christ as they would be natural spiritual leaders as followers of Isa. Terrific influence among many Muslim groups could be made if a Qazi man were able to remain in the community and be a Christian Qazi leader. With Christ all things are possible!
Pray for p g: Pray for many from the Qazi people to have the spiritual hunger it takes to embrace the cross no matter what the cost. Pray for Qazi disciples to make hundreds of disciples in Bangladesh. Pray for loving and dedicated workers.

Summary: The Chain are mainly a landowning community. At present, agriculture is the traditional and primary occupation. They generally do not accept food from the Dhobi, Chamar, Napit, and Bania communities, nor from Muslims. Except for the Brahmin community, all other communities of the region accept food from them. Shell (sankha) bangles and vermilion are the symbols of married women. An Agradani or Kantaha Brahmin officiates as a priest during ceremonial rituals.
Obstacles: Spiritual opposition can be expected when the Gospel of Christ is proclaimed. Pray against this opposition and for freedom for the Gospel to advance.
How reach: The Chain community primarily speaks Bengali, and there are many good resources available in Bengali. Pray for workers to take these to the people.
Pray for church: There are no known followers of Christ within the Chain community in Bangladesh. Pray they will encounter believers in their interactions outside of the group, who will be lead to share the Gospel with them.
Pray for p g: Please pray the Chain community will be able to prepare their children for productive lives, with good schools available.

Summary: The Mal marry only within their own people group. They are divided into about five sub-castes, and many clans. The marriage symbols for women are vermilion and iron bangles. Most of the Mal are landless laborers. Some sell wood and work as laborers in road construction and forests. They follow both traditional and Hindu religious practices, worshiping Baram, Aram, Gotasila, Rangini, Sitala, Manasa and other deities. They place the Brahmin above themselves and the Kudmi, Bhumij and Santhal below themselves in the caste hierarchy. They live in India and Nepal, as well as in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: Lack of workers inhibits the advance of the Gospel throughout South Asia. Jesus said to pray for workers.
How reach: Much sustained and focused prayer is needed to overcome severe spiritual resistance to the advance of Christ's kingdom throughout South Asia. Please pray for prayer groups and prayer networks to form within South Asia, and without.
Pray for church: Even though there is no indication today of followers of Jesus among the Mal people, we should pray for those who will soon come to Christ. Pray they will be zealous to know and serve the Lord, and will demonstrate the fruit of God's Spirit, love, joy, and peace.
Pray for p g: Please pray for the people of the Mal community, in India, Bangladesh, and Nepal. Pray the Lord will send workers to tell them about Jesus. Pray he will prepare them for this, and that they will be given understanding. The worldview of the Hindu is very different from that of the Christian.

Summary: The Rakhine people speak a nonstandard variety of Burmese. Because of persecution from the Myanmar government, many Rakhine people now live as refugees in neighboring Bangladesh. Those who have fled to Bangladesh often live in refugee camps.
Obstacles: Almost all Rakhine people are staunch Buddhists. Those in Bangladesh are nearly untouched by a gospel presence.
How reach: Christ followers can help the Rakhine people living in refugee camps in Bangladesh.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Rakhine people in Bangladesh will have a spiritual hunger that will open their hearts to the King of kings. Pray for workers who are driven by the love and boldness of the Holy Spirit to go to them. Pray for a movement to Christ among them. Pray that the Lord to soon provide them with the opportunity to live meaningful and productive lives.

Summary: The Hajong people are spread out across northeast India and Bangladesh with the majority on the India side of the border. Hajong women can be easily identified by their brightly striped red dress called a Pathin, or "Phula Agon". Traditionally, and in many present day villages, women are accomplished weavers. They are predominantly rice farmers although some also find work as day laborers or by selling firewood. Floors in their homes are earthen and walls are made of split bamboo plastered with cow dung. In addition to common Hindu festivals of the region such as Durga Puja, Hajongs celebrate some festivals unique to their culture. One type of traditional festival in honor of the Bastu, Paabni, and group of deities is conducted by a village priest called a Deoshi or Nongtang. Tortoises and pigeons are sacrificed for Bastu.
Obstacles: The region where the Hajang people live is not readily accessible to outsiders.
How reach: Please pray Indian Hajong believers will become mature enough in the faith to take the good news of Christ to the remainder of their community, both in India and Bangladesh.
Pray for church: There probably are no followers of Jesus today among the Hajang community in Bangladesh, but some are reported in India. Pray the Lord will prepare the Hajang of Bangladesh to be interested in this good news when it comes to them.
Pray for p g: Pray for improved living conditions for the Hajang. Pray especially for those who are unable to care adequately for themselves, for the widow, the elderly, and children without parents.

Summary: The Bishnupuria are mostly farmers, though the younger generation is becoming increasingly better educated and looking for other opportunities. They are very proud of their culture and Hindu religion. Ras Purnima is their biggest celebration of the year. They have good access to schools and most students complete level 10. Their attitude toward outsiders is said to be generally receptive, yet they have been very resistant to Christianity in the past. Approximately 75% are literate in Bengali.
Obstacles: The Bishnupuria have a history of being resistant, even hostile, to the good news about Jesus. Perhaps this is changing.
How reach: Please pray for more evangelists and church planters in all of Bangladesh. Lack of workers restricts the growth of the Lord's body, the church.
Pray for church: A few Bishnupuria have identified themselves as Christians in the past. Pray for teachers and a pastor to help these Christians become real disciples of the Lord, being joyfully obedient to his way of life.
Pray for p g: As Bishnupriya youth accept change through higher education and modernization, pray that they would also become open to hearing and accepting the gospel of salvation. Please pray also for clean drinking water and improved medical care facilities.

Summary: The Mallah Dhawa have a tribal background. Tribal peoples in highly dense places like Bangladesh are usually forced by circumstances to leave their homeland and blend in with other people groups. The Dhawa Mallahs live in West Bengal, India as well as Bangladesh. They are a dwindling indigenous group of landless people.
Obstacles: Islam offers a major obstacle to gospel witness. Few will consider that they need a savior to draw them from being objects of wrath to becoming objects of mercy. They rely on their works.
How reach: There are all kinds of gospel materials in the Bengali language that the Mallah Dhawa people can access.
Pray for p g: Pray for gospel workers to catch a vision for reaching the Dhawa Mallah people for Jesus and that in God's sovereign timing the hearts of these people will be open and ready to follow him. Pray for Jesus movements to bless extended families so the gospel will spread rapidly among this people group. Pray for the spiritual lives of the Dhawa Mallah people to become fruitful as they follow Christ. Pray for the lives and culture of the Dhawa Mallah people to evidence the rule and reign of the Kingdom of God as they open to the gospel, and for the beauty of Jesus to be seen in them.

Summary: In the past, when ceremonies and celebrations were being planned in the villages of Bangladesh, it was the Nagarchi who were called upon to serve as drummers. Today, many of them have given up their drums to farm and raise livestock in central Bangladesh. Reaching this small, unique people group is a challenge. They embody what Jesus meant when he commissioned us to go into all the world to make disciples.
Obstacles: Most of the Nagarchi are Hindu. The Muslim Nagarchi mingle with the Hindus and have even adopted some of their religious practices. They need their eyes opened to see that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and that there is no way to peace with God other than through him.
How reach: It will take bold, loving workers to go to these Muslims in Bangladesh.
Pray for p g: Pray for workers willing to venture to this harvest field and share the good news of salvation with the Nagarchi. Ask the Lord to prepare the hearts of the Nagarchi to receive the gospel message and pray for many families to respond to his invitation. Ask the Lord to establish a church planting movement among them.

Summary: The Nagarchi have a number of clans, and use community or clan names as their surnames. They marry only within their own people group. All the sons get an equal share of the property after the death of their father. Marriage rituals include circling the sacred pole seven times. Many are employed in some aspect of farming, and some collect firewood in nearby forests and sell it locally. They play the drum on a hired basis during birth and marriage rituals. The Nagarchi live in India and Bangladesh, with tiny numbers also found in Bhutan and Nepal.
Obstacles: The worldview of Hinduism is very different than that of Biblical Christianity. A different way of thinking is involved, and changing worldviews usually comes with difficulty.
How reach: Perhaps the Christians within this people group will become mature enough in the faith to carry the good news about Jesus to all of their own people, in Bangladesh, India, Bhutan, and Nepal. Please pray for these Christians.
Pray for church: Please pray the several hundred Nagarchis in India who have identified themselves as Christians will learn to live holy lives, "craving pure spiritual milk, so that by it they may grow up in their salvation, now that they have tasted the Lord is good."
Pray for p g: Please pray the Nagarchi people will gain no satisfaction from a religon that keeps them from knowing the creator God, one who loves them and offers them an abundant life both now and eternally. Pray for a growing hunger to find and know this God.

Summary: Modern Kandu people have left their old profession of parching grain and now work as merchants, moneylenders, shopkeepers and dealers in grain and spices. They have spread over South Asia, including Bangladesh.
Obstacles: Almost all Kandu people are Hindu, even in Muslim Bangladesh. Hindus worship many deities, but their practices are diverse. In general, Hindus are pragmatic in their spiritual beliefs, offering worship to gods in exchange for benefits rather than out of love or devotion. It will be difficult for them to understand giving their devotion to a God who is also their loving father.
How reach: The many and diverse occupations of Kandu people can provide opportunities for true followers of the Lord Jesus to introduce themselves and build relationships. They can earn the privilege to speak the truth of the gospel into their spiritually needy lives.
Pray for p g: There are Christ followers who can reach them. Pray for those in this community who will someday come to Christ as Savior. Pray they would be devoted to one another in brotherly love, honoring one another above themselves. Pray for the gospel to penetrate Kandu families so that they will study God's word and share it with others. Pray for a discipleship and church planting movement to begin among Kandu people in Bangladesh.

Summary: The Ansari (an Arabic term) can be traced back to Saudi Arabia, the people originating from the Medinan people who assisted the prophet Muhammed as he migrated from Mecca to Medina. "Our name, 'Ansari,' means 'friend indeed' or 'one who helps '." They are predominately artisans by trade and are mostly poor. They are Muslims who practice folk Islam, incorporating many folk beliefs into their observance of the religion.
Obstacles: The Ansari are spread over a very large area of South Asia. Several projects will be needed to carry the good news of Christ effectively to all the people.
How reach: The friendliness of the Ansaris can open doors for believers to develop closeness with them and opportunities to share the Gospel. Many Christian resources are available in Bengali, the main language of the people.
Pray for church: Work has begun in this people group in some areas. Pray it will spread into other areas, including into Bangladesh.
Pray for p g: Pray for even higher levels of education among the people, especially needed in this globalized world.

Summary: Besya comes from the Persian word bais. It means 20, because they once had 20 subgroups that converted to Islam. Some consider Besya to be derogatory, so they prefer to be called "Musalman Dabgar" or "Musalman Jhangra." The Besya people traditionally had low status because of their work with dead animals. They were butchers and tanners. Fortunately, their status has improved, and many hold better jobs in the 21st century. Those in India live in Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal, but most live in Bangladesh. They speak Bengali.
Obstacles: Whether they live in India or Bangladesh, the Besya people live in places that have few Christ followers. Most will never meet anyone who allows Jesus to transform their lives.
How reach: There are plenty of gospel materials in the Bengali language, spoken by Besya Muslims.
Pray for p g: Pray for workers to go to the Muslim Besya people, and for their hearts to be ready to receive their savior. Pray for families of believers loving and serving others to grow reproducing churches. Pray for a chain reaction of families reaching families that results in thousands of new believers who share their faith with others. Pray for grace and truth expanding into their entire society as all believers learn to love others.

Summary: The name of the community is derived from the word sona meaning gold, and the people who work with gold are called Sunar or Sonar. Traditionally they are goldsmiths, but with the availability of better educational facilities the Sonar have become inclined towards education. They claim their social status next to that of the Brahmin. Divorce and remarriage are allowed.
Obstacles: A Sonar follower of Christ may lose his place in society, and be ostracized. This is especially an issue for high caste individuals.
How reach: Pray the few believers among the Sonar will grow in sharing and discussing God's Word with their families and clans.
Pray for church: There are few if any Christian believers among the Sonar, but pray for the ones that will soon be a part of this community. Pray they be well instructed in the faith, and will grow in maturity and in numbers. Pray they live holy lives.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Sonar community to be humble enough to acknowledge their need for forgiveness of sin, and that they understand the provision for forgiveness that God has provided.

Summary: The Bauri people claim to be priests of Dharam, a Hindu deity of death and justice, but Brahmins have forced them to the lowest ranks of the Hindu hierarchy. Now they are of very low status and are not allowed to even enter some temples. However, they still perform priestly duties during the Dharam festival. Very few Bauri people own land. They lack an adequate diet, and the water available to them is poor. They have little health care or education. Most live in India, but a few are in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: Their pride and insistence upon being Hindu priests can be a hindrance to them being willing to listen to the gospel.
How reach: Christ's ambassadors can be friends to this friendless people. The Bauri people have some understanding of “justice” which can be a segue to what the Bible says about the need for man's need for redemption and forgiveness from a holy God.
Pray for p g: Pray for workers. Pray for hearts that are open and willing to allow Christ to transform their families and communities. Pray for evangelistic tools that can effectively reach this oral culture. Pray that God will raise an army of intercessors who will pray for the Bauri's needs and share Christ with them.

Summary: Carpentry has been the traditional source of livelihood for the Sutradhar community. They straddle the worlds of the high caste Brahmins and that of artisans. In India they provide intricate carvings for Hindu temples. Like many people groups in South Asia, the Sutradhars were all Hindu at one time, but some converted to Islam, splitting the community in two. The Muslims are more likely to design furniture in Bangladesh, a Muslim majority country to the east of India. Their population in Bangladesh is much smaller than it is in India. Sutradhar people in Bangladesh seldom have access to modern wood-working tools. They make furniture and other goods the same way as their fathers and grandfathers.
Obstacles: There are no Christ followers among the Muslim Sutradhar people, nor are there many in their parts of South Asia. They are highly unlikely to ever meet someone who will preach the gospel.
How reach: They speak Bengali, a language with an abundance of gospel materials.
Pray for church: Pray for loving gospel workers to catch a vision for reaching the Sutradhar people for Jesus and that in God's sovereign timing the hearts of these people would be open and ready to follow him. Pray for Jesus movements to bless extended families so the gospel will spread rapidly. Pray for the spiritual lives of the Sutradhar people to become fruitful so others will be drawn to Jesus Christ.

Summary: The Nat are a community traditionally employed as dancers, singers and acrobats. They are a Scheduled Caste in some states where they live, but not all states. Scheduled Castes receive certain benefits from the government. Today, many in the Nat community are employed in farming and other trades. Both men and women chew betel nuts and tobacco, and drinking alcohol is common. They usually live in hamlets on the outskirts of villages and towns. Hindu Nats worship all the Hindu gods and goddesses, including Rama and Shiva. The Nat in Bihar worship Dack as their main deity, while their regional deity is Goraibaba. Some become hermits and chant the name of Rama, and others are exorcists, healers and fortune tellers.
Obstacles: The Nat people are spread across the northern portions of the Indian sub-continent, a vast area, with much spiritual opposition to the Christian Gospel.
How reach: Perhaps some Nai youth will discover the availability of Christian videos and recordings on the web. Pray they will be given an interest and understanding as they view and listen. Pray for Gospel radio to be available, as well.
Pray for church: The Nat people live not only in Bangladesh, but also in India, Nepal and Pakistan. There are Nats in Bangladesh who have identified themselves as Christian believers, but not so in the other countries. Please pray for the Christians in Bangladesh to be properly instructed in the faith, and not mix the beliefs of Hinduism with the Christian faith.
Pray for p g: Please pray the Nat community will acquire skills to make them employable in reputable trades. The youth need more and better education. Pray that parents will understand the importance of a good education for their children.

Summary: The Patwas are associated with threading of beads and stitchery. The community's name, Patwa, is associated with the making of woven cloth. Muslim Patwas have their own clans (gotras) and lineages. Clans regulate marriage alliances, and lineages trace ancestries. Marriages rarely occur outside the Patwa community. The Patwas are mainly Hindu, though there are some Muslims among them, forming a separate community. In such situations, Muslims tend to retain aspects of Hindu spirituality such as revering saints, and looking to charms and amulets for their needs rather than Allah.
Obstacles: Not only are there no Christ followers among the Muslim Patwas in Bangladesh, but the areas where they live in Bangladesh and India have very few Christians. They are highly unlikely to ever hear the gospel.
How reach: There are plenty of gospel materials in Bengali, the language of the Muslim Patwas.
Pray for church: Pray for workers to go to the Muslim Patwas, and for their hearts to be ready to receive their Savior. Pray for networks of believing families and fellowships that will throw the doors open for others to follow Jesus. Pray for the Lord to bless the families among the Muslim Patwa people with his presence and mercy. Pray for believers among this people group to disciple others who will disciple still others. Pray for Bible believing fellowships and churches among the Muslim Patwas.

Summary: The name "Beldar" of India is derived from the words "digging instrument" and the person who uses it. They are a people most known for agricultural work, mainly digging in and transporting soil. As with most modern people groups, they have since moved past their traditional roles. Some Beldar are now engaged in animal husbandry, business, and industrial or unskilled labor. However, these are few in number. They are considered to be a part of a low status caste, and they themselves share this view. Most Beldar are bilingual, speaking a national language as well as their own Baghelkandi dialect. Very few have converted to Islam, and only one hundred or so are known to be Christian; most Beldar hold to Hinduism.
Obstacles: Because of the low social standing of the Beldar, education levels and literacy rate may be low. As such, print materials may have a limited impact.
How reach: Because of the low standing of the Beldar, they likely have never been honored or served. Workers could strive to love and serve them from a position of lowliness in order to introduce them to the God who washed the feet of fishermen.
Pray for p g: Pray that they would be hungry for spiritual truth that will lead them to Christ. Pray for outrageous boldness and Godly wisdom for the few believers, and for discipleship movements to spring up in their communities.

Summary: The Bhuiya, a Scheduled Caste, are mainly landless, but a few possess cultivable land. They depend mostly on daily-wage labor, rickshaw-pulling, brick-laying, etc. Their pantheon includes a large number of deities, such as Dihwal, Gorraiyya and Bir Bhairon. Their literacy rate has been quite low in the past, but probably has improved somewhat in recent years.
Obstacles: The Bhuiya community speaks well over 30 languages. Evangelistic and church planting outreaches need to accommodate the linguistic subdivisions within the community.
How reach: A very low literacy rate requires taking the Gospel of Christ to these people primarily in oral form, using stories from Scripture, as well as Gospel recordings and films, and other visual/oral means.
Pray for church: Pray for the handful of Christians among the Bhuiya community, that they will desire to grow in Christ, to become disciples, not merely Christians in name only. Pray they will put on the full armor of God, including the shield of faith.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Bhuiya community to be able to care for their families, and for schools to be available to their children. Pray they will make schooling a high priority.

Summary: The name "Dimasa" stands for "children of the big river," referring to the Brahmaputra river. They are one of the oldest inhabitants of the northeastern part of India, and one of the many Kachari tribes. Dimasa believe that they are the children of Bangla Raja and the great divine bird Aarikhidima. Among the six ancestral gods, Sibrai is the eldest and the most important and during worship his name is to be uttered first. The traditional village headman is a Khunang, having both executive and judiciary powers. He is assisted by another official called the Dillik, and a third man, the Daulathu. They are farmers, and raise many kinds of crops and produce.
Obstacles: Lack of sustained, focused prayer inhibits the advance of the Lord's kingdom throughout South Asia. There are powerful spiritual forces that resist the gospel, and these are overcome by prayer.
How reach: The New Testament is available in the Dimasa language, as well as resources such as recordings and films. Please pray for workers to carry these resources to the people who can help them understand the gospel.
Pray for church: There are no reported Christians among the Dimasa of Bangladesh, but there are reported Christians within this people group in India. Please pray for spiritual maturity for these Christians, and for an increase in their numbers.
Pray for p g: Please pray the Lord will grant spiritual understanding to all the people groups of Bangladesh. Pray he will reveal Jesus in powerful and convincing ways, and will grant people faith to believe.

Summary: The Kori people are a Scheduled Caste, which means they have low, but not the lowest status among Hindu peoples. They are not well off financially. They are often mocked because they are weavers. Some Kori families use power looms. Some with land are farmers but many are landless and work as laborers.
Obstacles: The low literacy rate among the Kori people limits gospel efforts to non-printed materials. Evangelism is frowned upon in Muslim Bangladesh.
How reach: Believers can offer skits and songs that teach the same lessons that Jesus taught in the gospels.
Pray for church: Pray that the few believers among the Kori people will be so filled with the fruit and the power of the Holy Spirit that their Hindu and Muslim neighbors will be drawn to the fragrance of Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray for gospel workers to catch a vision for reaching the Kori people for Jesus and that in God's sovereign timing the hearts of the Kori people would be open and ready to follow him. Pray for the spiritual lives of the Kori people to become fruitful as they follow Christ. We pray for the lives and culture of the Kori people to evidence the rule and reign of the Kingdom of God as they open to the gospel, and for the beauty of Jesus to be seen in them. Pray for Jesus movements to bless extended families so the gospel will spread rapidly among this people group. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give the Kori people teachable and understanding hearts.

Summary: The Halwai are a caste of sweet makers and confectioners. The Mairas are a subgroup of the Hawais. The name Halwai comes from the Hindi word "Halwa" which is a sweet. The Halwai live mainly in India's northern states, but they also live in both Bangladesh and Nepal. The Halwais are well respected among Hindus. Because of the importance sweets have in the Hindu religion, they have a special position in festivals, childbirths and marriages.
Obstacles: Like candy, Hinduism offers what seems like a sweet way to satisfy hunger without including any substance. It is way too easy for the Maira Halwais to be satisfied with what they have, without finding out that only Jesus offers life to the full.
How reach: Believers who purchase sweets at Maira Halwai shops can give them copies of the JESUS Film as a way to open the door to the gospel.
Pray for church: As far as we know, there are no followers of Christ among the Maira Halwai, so pray that this will be the year when the Lord moves in their community.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Maira Halwai people to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods. Pray for his kingdom to come and his will to be done among the Maira Halwai people. Pray for a movement of Jesus to heal and strengthen Maira Halwai communities.

Summary: The Bhoi community is mainly a landowning one, but a few are landless. A Brahmin priest officiates at marriages. At the wedding, the bride and groom walk around the fire seven times. They work in temples and are therefore accorded a high status in society. Every house has an altar to Manasamata. Beside this, there are images of Khandoba and a few other gods and goddesses. Every family has a number of deities.
Obstacles: Nominal Christians who don't truly follow Christ's teachings may be an impediment to the Bhoi. Pray they will be able to see that there is a difference between disciples of Christ and those who are Christian only in name.
How reach: Ask God to deliver families and communities within the Bhoi people from fears that hinder them from embracing His blessings.
Pray for church: There may be no followers of Jesus among the Hindu Bhoi community at present, but pray for the ones that will soon be found. Pray they will be zealous to learn of Christ and follow him. Pray they will keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Pray for p g: Pray that the Bhoi community will be able to care adequately for their families. Pray they will make schooling a priority for their children, so the children will be equipped to live in modern times.

Summary: The first Baha'i community in Bangladesh was in 1844. There is controversy regarding their origins, but they probably came from an offshoot of Shia Islam. Their founder, Bahallujah, taught that the ascended masters include Moses, Buddha and Jesus, because all of them had risen from the dead. Such beliefs got him executed in Persia as a heretic. His followers then fled the growing persecution and found new homes in India. Today the Baha'is eagerly await the coming of the next ascended master. Because of their efforts to evangelize Muslims and Hindus, they have been persecuted in Bangladesh. Those who remain in India are often prosperous businessmen.
Obstacles: Because of the spiritual veil that covers their eyes to the truth, the Baha'i continue to believe that all faiths are acceptable and there is only need for goodness and kindness in one's life.
How reach: The Baha'i are widely persecuted, especially in Bangladesh and Iran. Compassionate Christ followers can be friends to the friendless.
Pray for p g: Pray that the spiritual veil is lifted from the eyes of these kind, gracious people. Pray that they will see that their actions, however good, are not enough; all fall short of the glory of God. Pray that thousands of Bahai find eternal life through Christ.

Summary: Rangrez means dyer in Persian. Rangrez people traditionally dyed cloth. They were originally Hindus worshiping many gods, but Muslim missionaries converted this people group to Islam many centuries ago. They maintain a low to middle caste status wherever they live in South Asia. Most Rangrez people live in India's north central states and Pakistan's Punjab Province, but some live in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: The Rangrez people in Bangladesh face tremendous social pressure not to turn to another belief system.
How reach: Rangrez people live in places where there are very few followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. They have contact only with other Muslims and some Hindus in Bangladesh. Christian businessmen could find a way to purchase Rangrez goods for the world market. This effort would give them regular contact with this spiritually needy Muslim community in Bangladesh. The entire Bible has been translated into Bengali, their spoken language. Audio and visual resources also exist for their benefit. Perhaps they can view the JESUS Film in homes and outreached areas.
Pray for p g: Pray that almighty God would give Rangrez leaders dreams and visions leading them to opening their community to salvation through Christ alone. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give Rangrez leaders a hunger and thirst for true righteousness that will lead them to Jesus Christ.

Summary: When you think of Jogis, you usually think of Hindus and India. However, they also have Muslim communities in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan. They are also known as Jogi Faqirs, holy men who are often beggars. Faqirs are often wandering Sufi mystics who teach Islam. Historically, they have been a landless community whose main occupation has been to provide specialized religious services and religious-medical assistance and to seek alms. Their help in curing diseases and in the removal of evil spirits is sought by both Hindus and Muslims.
Obstacles: Whether they are Hindu or Muslim, many people in South Asia look up to these people who have sacrificed much for spiritual reasons. It is very hard for anyone in this position to be willing to humbly admit that they themselves need a Savior.
How reach: Ironically, the Muslim Jogis are looked up to by some, but disdained by many others. Their spiritual beliefs and practices often straddle Islam and Hinduism, which is frowned upon by many from both religious communities. Their numbers are dwindling as well. Given these circumstances, it is possible that some might be willing to look to new spiritual answers.
Pray for p g: Pray for them to accept the spiritual blessings of Jesus Christ and teach them to others. Pray for a movement to Christ among Jogis in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan.

Summary: The term Shaikh is used here for a sociocultural group that originated with Arab settlers in South Asia which now includes many subgroups, some of which intermarry in Bangladesh with non-Shaikh Bengali Muslims and some of which don't. Technocrats, bureaucrats, soldiers, traders, scientists, architects, teachers, theologians, and sufis flocked from the rest of the Arab and Muslim world to the Islamic Sultanate in South Asia and settled permanently. The Siddiqi Shaikh subgroup claims their distinction is that they are descendants of Abu Bakr Siddiq, the first Muslim caliph and a companion of the prophet Mohammed. He was also the father-in-law of the Islamic prophet. This gives them very high status among Muslim communities, tying them in with the Islamic religion.
Obstacles: The Siddiqi Shaikh community is solidly Muslim. They are among the more orthodox Muslims, and their identity is strongly tied in with the Islamic religion.
How reach: The Siddiqi Shaikh speak Urdu, a language with all kinds of gospel materials.
Pray for p g: Ask the Lord to open the hearts of the Siddiqi Shaikhs so they will receive the good news. Pray for a Disciple Making Movement that will bless the Siddiqi Shaikhs this decade. Pray for the Lord to send workers to the Shaikhs to tell them about Jesus or Isa.

Summary: The Koiri believe they are the descendents of Kush, one of the twin sons of lord Rama. They receive the services of a Brahmin priest, who officiates over their life-cycle rituals and religious ceremonies. The majority of the Koiri are engaged in their traditional occupation of agriculture.
Obstacles: Nominal Christians, whether in India or in the West, may have negatively influenced the Koiri's perception of what it means to be a follower of Christ.
How reach: The Koiri are somewhat receptive to the gospel and a move of Christ is starting among them. Several thousand Koiri are following Christ and village house churches are being formed and Koiri leadership developing. The Koiri are engaged by a number of mission agencies and churches and are in the process of being reached. Sustained, focused prayer is needed to open the eyes of the Koiri community to their need and opportunity to know and follow Jesus Christ.
Pray for church: Pray for the Christian believers among the Koiri community, that they will have a strong and faithful testimony for the Lord, and will honor him with their lives.
Pray for p g: Pray for God's blessing, strengthening and healing of families and communities within Koiri people through the abundant life Jesus offers to all who call on His name. Pray they will increasingly hunger to know forgiveness for their sins and the new life offered through faith in Jesus Christ.

Summary: Kisan means "farmer." Kisan people are classed as a scheduled caste, which means that they have low status in the Hindu hierarchy.
Obstacles: The Kisan people live in parts of the world where there are very few believers. For that reason, they are unlikely to see living Christianity in action or hear about the freedom one has by putting their faith in Jesus Christ. However, there are a small number of believers among them.
How reach: Believers can offer prayer to their Hindu neighbors in times of need. When the Lord does a miracle, they can tell of the wonders done by Jesus Christ, the only Lord.
Pray for church: Pray that Kisan believers will live spiritually victorious lives that will draw their Hindu neighbors to putting their faith in Jesus Christ alone.
Pray for p g: Pray for a movement of Jesus to heal and strengthen Kisan communities and families. Pray for a "Book of Acts" type of movement to Christ among the Kisan people. Pray for Holy Spirit anointed believers from the Kisan people to change their society from within. Pray for a movement in which the Holy Spirit leads and empowers disciples to make more disciples. Pray for his kingdom to come and his will to be done among the Kisan people.

Summary: One source considers "Bediya" to be the generic name of a number of vagrant, nomadic groups. Traditionally, a large section of the Bedia were reported to be earning a livelihood from prostitution and dancing, however, this has largely been discontinued. The Bedia worship deities like Thakur, Shiva, Parvati, Hanuman, Chamunda, Kali and Sitala and Khermata (a local deity).
Obstacles: Giving up allegiance to personal deities may be threatening.
How reach: Pray for the Bedia people to be delivered from their fear of "Christendom" and to embrace God's blessing through his Word for their families and clans.
Pray for church: Pray the few followers of Jesus among the Bedia will have pastors and teachers to help them grow to become faithful disciples. Pray they will be taught accurately and well.
Pray for p g: Pray the Bedia will make schooling a priority for their children, and will be able to improve their standard of living.

Summary: The legend about the origin of the community is that one day a man was going to kill a number of cows. Parashuram was at that time practicing austerities in the jungle. Hearing the cries of the sacred animals he rushed to their assistance, but the cow killer was aided by his friends. So Parashuram made five men out of kusha grass and brought them to life by letting drops of his perspiration fall upon them. Hence arose the name Pasi, from the Hindi pasina (sweat).
Obstacles: This community speaks a number of languages. Separate church planting projects may be needed for each language group.
How reach: Stories from Scripture, films, recordings, and Gospel radio for each language spoken by the Pasi community will be helpful. Pray that God will overthrow spiritual forces of darkness opposing the spread of His Gospel.
Pray for church: Pray for the followers of Christ that will soon develop within the Pasi community, that the Lord will provide pastors and teachers for them, and for them to become well grounded in the faith, fully trusting in Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray the Pasi community will increasingly be aware of their need to know and follow the creator God.

Summary: The Gonhri people are also known as Mallah or Nishad. They are a caste associated with boating. They believe themselves to be descendants of the legendary figure, Nishad, who ferried King Rama and his wife, Sita, across the Ganges River. That tradition has been passed down through the centuries. They take pride in their caste and consider their occupation as boatmen carrying Hindu devotees as a high calling or holy occupation. Others consider them to be a "backward" (meaning low prestige) caste.
Obstacles: Pride can be an obstacle. They can have high status as princes and princesses if they would only accept it. The Gonhri people need to accept the dignity of being His children rather than in traditional beliefs.
How reach: Believers can hire the Gonhri people and have regular contact with them, eventually building friendships that can lead to spiritual discussions.
Pray for church: There are no Gonhri people in Nepal, Bangladesh or India who follow Christ, so pray that the 2020s will be a decade of spiritual breakthroughs in their communities.
Pray for p g: Pray for a "Book of Acts" type of movement to Christ among the Gonhri people in Nepal and India. Pray for the Gonhri people to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods. Pray for Holy Spirit anointed believers from the Gonhri people to change their society from within. Pray for a movement in which the Holy Spirit leads and empowers Gonhri disciples to make more disciples.

Summary: The Chak people are agricultural-based and are self-sustained by their own resources from food to residences. Although they are a very small in population size, the Chak livelihood is very colorful and traditional especially in celebrating festivals and observing rituals related to marriage, childbirth, death and funeral. They celebrate many religious and folk festivals throughout the year. Their society is patriarchal; only the sons inherit the family property.
Obstacles: Only about one in 300 Chak people follow Christ. If they are going to hear the gospel, it will need to come from someone outside their language and culture.
How reach: About the only oral materials the Chak people have in their language are gospel recordings. Christ followers can provide these.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to provide for their physical and spiritual needs as a testimony of his power and love. Pray that the Chak people will have a spiritual hunger that will open their hearts to the King of kings. Pray for workers who are driven by the love and boldness of the Holy Spirit to go to them. Pray for a movement to Christ among them to begin this decade.

Summary: How would you like to be known for rolling cigarettes? What about having a reputation as a basket weaver? These have probably never been your professional or personal goals in life, but they are the heritage and present circumstance of the Baiti people. As part of the lowest community, they have little else to hope for.
Obstacles: The total population of this people group, residing in India and Bangladesh, is just over 50,000. Finding members of the Baiti is the first challenge. Reaching them with the gospel in a way that will convince them to turn away from anything that gets in the way of Christ's transforming grace is another.
How reach: As one of the servant castes, the Baiti's lives are characterized by hard labor and poverty. Demonstrating Christ's love with both preaching and humanitarian care could be an effective way to draw them to the loving King of kings.
Pray for p g: The Baiti lead difficult lives. Pray for the Lord to enter into their hardship and reveal to them his love and life. Pray for the Baiti to have open hearts and be responsive to God's presence by moving as a group into his loving community.

Summary: The Saraswat Brahmins are named after a river that once flowed in their original homeland. From there they migrated to many parts of South Asia, including what is now Bangladesh. During their long history the Saraswat Brahmins have been noted for being scholars and for helping to raise the level of civilization.
Obstacles: Since they have the highest status of any Hindu varna, Brahmins believe that they have everything to lose by "converting" to another religious system. A Brahmin believes he is on the verge of reaching nirvana if he earns good karma in this life by doing what he is supposed to do. He believes that it took thousands of years of being reincarnated to reach the high state he now enjoys. Switching to a "different God" would surely result in an inferior reincarnation after he dies.
How reach: Saraswat Brahmins in Bangladesh need believing friends who will faithfully lead them to Jesus Christ. It will take people who are well educated and have a good grasp of Brahmin thinking to successfully reach them for Christ. They will need to have enough empathy to explain the ways of Jesus in a manner that would make sense to Saraswat Brahmins.
Pray for church: Pray for followers of Christ among the Saraswat Brahmins in Bangladesh to shine in such a way that others will be drawn to the light of Jesus.
Pray for p g: Brahmins are the key community who uphold Hinduism. Please pray that the light of the gospel breaks through the veil that blinds this community. Pray that the true God will reveal Himself to this community and use Brahmins to preach and teach about Jesus Christ. Pray for a disciple making movement to flourish among every Brahmin community.

Summary: Many centuries ago, the Bhar community was deposed by the invading Rajput and Muslims. Their struggle with the Rajput and Muslim invaders continued for about two hundred years, at the end of which Ibrahim Shah Waarli of Jaunpur killed the last Bhar ruler. Child marriages are prevalent; however, the trend towards adult marriage is increasing. Agriculture is the main occupation of the Bhar, and they usually work as laborers in fields owned by the Muslims, Thakur and Yadav. They are Hindu and worship deities like Deeh Baba and Burhao Baba.
Obstacles: The Bhar culture is that of worshiping the spirits of created things, not the Creator God. Distinction must be made between what is created, and the One who created.
How reach: There are many good resource materials available in the primary language of the Bhar people, but workers are needed. Pray for workers for the harvest, which is ripening.
Pray for church: There may be no followers of Christ among the Bhar community today, but pray for the ones that will soon place their trust in Christ. Pray that new Bhar believers will become effective and fruitful in sharing and discussing Bible stories with their own and other families. They will need prayer support. Pray they will learn to speak to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Pray for access to Scripture in printed and recorded forms.
Pray for p g: Pray for each individual in the Bhar community to have a minimum of one opportunity to hear of Jesus accurately, in his or her mother tongue. Also pray for the Bhar to make schooling a priority for their children, and for good schools to be available.

Summary: Korku people are low status people who earn very little money. Each week they sell what they can produce through vegetables, the firewood they gather in the forests and other commodities. Those with more power take much of what the Korku earn. They need education, better health care and political empowerment to rise above the cycle of exploitation.
Obstacles: Their primary need is spiritual. They need to be shown the way to the truth of the gospel so their lives can change from the inside out, regardless of their circumstances.
How reach: Christ followers with knowledge and experience to help will find many areas of service among needy Korku people.
Pray for p g: There is no church among the Korku people in Bangladesh. Pray this would change this decade. Pray for the Lord to provide for their physical and spiritual needs as a testimony of his power and love. Pray that Korku people would have a spiritual hunger that will open their hearts to the King of kings. Pray for workers who are driven by the love and boldness of the Holy Spirit to go to them, whatever the cost. Pray for a discipleship and church planting movement to Christ among them.

Summary: The Panko of Bangladesh are a relatively small people group. They are located in an area known as the Chittagong Hill Tracts – three hilly lush, green, tropical regions of southeastern Bangladesh, relatively close to the Bay of Bengal. Their homeland is near the borders of India and Myanmar. The region is rich in timber, bamboo, and minerals. The Panko Pankhu build their houses on top of hills, with dwellings made of bamboo, wood, and tin. In their farming, they do "jhum" (slash-and-burn shifting cultivation), which can harm the environment. Younger Pankos are leaving farming to work in non-governmental organizations (NGO's), after they become college-educated. If you do internet searches of them, you may find them also spelled as Pankho, Panku, Pankhu, or Pangku, so these variant spellings all relate to the same group.
Obstacles: These are vulnerable people who might not be open to outsiders. They expect abuse from others, which might make them distrust gospel workers.
Pray for p g: Pray for a spiritual hunger that will motivate them to change even though it involves risks. Pray for the Panko Pankhus to have an abundance of gospel materials in their own language. Pray for believers to penetrate their areas with work opportunities, perhaps in business-as-mission or trade. Pray for opportunities for outsiders to take the gospel to the Panko Pankhu community.

Summary: The Kaora people are mostly landless. They work as agricultural laborers and fish farmers. Some raise pigs and goats while others are drummers, rickshaw-pullers or palanquin-bearers. They do not have many educational opportunities, and they suffer from illiteracy. Their girls get married between the ages of 12-16, and boys are married at 20-25. Women have very low status in Kaora communities. The Kaora people are entirely Hindu, worshiping a variety of Hindu gods and goddesses. They cremate the dead and place the remains in a river. Most Kaora live in India, but a small contingent lives in Bangladesh.
Obstacles: The literacy rate is low among these people, so the Gospel needs to come to them in oral as well as written forms.
How reach: Perhaps workers who can tell stories from scripture will be led by the Lord's Spirit to these people, in both Bangladesh and India.
Pray for church: Even though there may be no followers of Jesus today among the Kaora in either Bangladesh or India, we can trust there soon will be many such followers. Pray for this to occur.
Pray for p g: Please pray for a rising literacy rate among this people group, and for improving employment opportunities.

Summary: This community name is derived from the Arabic word faqr, meaning poverty. Most Faqir consider the famous Sufi Abdul Qadir Jillani as their mentor, and most Faqir in Bengal thus belong to the Qadriyah Sufi order. They often live in multi-caste villages in their own quarters, known as Faqir paras. The Faqir are giving up their age-old activity of begging and turning towards agriculture and self-employment. Their literacy rate is low. Faqir children receive Islamic education at home and in madrasas. They have a history of being Sufi Muslims.
Obstacles: Bangladesh does not provide ready access to Christian workers and creative means of access may be helpful.
How reach: The literacy rate of the Faqir people is quite low. The Gospel of Christ needs to come to them in audio and visual ways, perhaps by stories from scripture.
Pray for church: There are no known believers within the Faqir community, not in Bangladesh or India or Pakistan or any country where they reside. However, pray the Lord is now preparing teachers and pastors for those he will soon call to himself.
Pray for p g: Pray this poor community will gain employment skills and be able to properly provide for their families.

Summary: Bangladesh is an independent Muslim-majority state. However, not all Bangladeshis are Muslim. Karmali are Hindus who raise and eat pigs, which gives them low status. Muslims abhor pork and Hindus normally do not eat meat. As Hindus, Karmalis are polytheists and spiritists, who venerate ancestors, whom they believe reside in houses after death. Therefore, they sacrifice to ancestors and household spirits with the help of shamans. They are expected to marry within the clan, but not outside the tribe. Currently there is a trend to work in wage day labor.
Obstacles: Ministry obstacles may include illiteracy. Shamans and spirit worshippers might not be willing to give up their power. This can prove to be a barrier to the advance of the gospel among the Karmali.
How reach: Global Recording Network recordings can be useful for evangelism.
Pray for church: Pray the church would take the gospel to the Karmali. Pray they would use Scripture resources in Sylheti.
Pray for p g: Pray God would give the Karmali a hunger for Jesus Christ. Pray the Karmali would be open to evangelists and loving missionaries who seek to reach them. Pray for a spiritual movement that will lead the Karmali people to embrace the only savior.

Summary: The Tarafdar people are small in number, but they have left their mark on Bangladesh. One has been a noted historian. Others have been Olympic athletes representing Bangladesh while another chronicled Bangladesh's 1971 war for independence from Pakistan.
Obstacles: The Tarafdar people can hold their heads high in Bangladesh, perhaps too high for their own good. A people with so many accomplishments often ignore their need for total dependence on God. It will also be hard to find anyone from this community since they are so few in number.
How reach: To see the Tarafdar people reached for Christ will require much prayer before anyone attempts to go to them. First they will need to pray to meet people from this community, and then they will need to pray for spiritual openness.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Lord to have his hand of blessings on the Tarafdar community so that they will know they need him. Pray for their elders to welcome Christ's ambassadors and embrace the message of the gospel. Pray for a movement to Christ among them in Bangladesh.

Summary: The Banjara were traditionally a nomadic community, but today they more commonly are settled and work in agricultural production. They believe that they were originally Hindu and were forcibly converted to Islam. They are non-vegetarians who eat beef. The Muslim Banjara have twelve clans. They maintain cordial relations with neighboring communities and share water sources with them. They belong to the Sunni sect of Islam.
Obstacles: To follow Jesus is to risk upsetting community harmony, and to risk losing family and friends.
How reach: Pray that persons and households of peace will be found among the Banjara who will catalyze movements to Jesus among their own people.
Pray for church: There are probably no present followers of Jesus among the Muslim Banjara community, but pray for those the Lord will soon call to himself. Pray they will have nothing to do with the deeds of darkness, living as children of light. Pray for materials to help them grow properly, such as recorded or written Scripture, and Gospel films.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Banjara community to be able to adequately care for their families, and for widows, orphans, and elderly people to have the care and protection needed.

Summary: Bangladesh is primarily Sunni Muslim, but the Ahmadi seek to convert Sunnis to their form of Islam. The sect originated in the 1800s under the leadership of Mizra Ghuham, who saw himself as Islam's messianic savior. He sought Islamic victory through peace. These views run contrary to Sunni Islam. So, the Ahmadi of Bangladesh and elsewhere are persecuted. In 2015 Sunnis burned an Ahmadi mosque. The Ahmadi moved their international headquarters to safety in London. Ironically, their apologetics, which attack the accuracy of the Bible, is admired by Sunni Muslims.
Obstacles: Ahmadi Christology says Jesus is messiah and prophet, but not the Son of God. They also believe the Bible is "corrupt."
How reach: The JESUS Film, tracts and apologetics literature aimed at Ahmadi-specific beliefs might prove useful. Friendship evangelism and support for Ahmadi when they are persecuted may open them to Jesus.
Pray for church: Pray the church in Bangladesh would reach out to the Ahmadi with the love of Christ.
Pray for p g: Pray for their safety in times of violent persecution. Pray the Holy Spirit would convict them of their need for Jesus Christ. Pray for a disciple-making movement among Ahmadis.

Summary: Jats are brave, hardworking people who possess both the desire and ability to rule. It has been said that no Jat wants to be ruled. Rather, he desires to have power over a group if not over an area. They take great pride in their ancestry. Today, the Jats are well read, and some occupy high positions in academic and technical arenas. Physically, the Jats are usually taller and heavier than most of their neighbors. Because of their larger build, their reputation for violence, and the fact that they control much of the land and village income, they are generally feared by other communities. The Jat peoples are among the most prosperous groups in India on a per-capita basis. Ironically, because they value thriftiness and diligence, the Jats are often regarded as miserly.
Obstacles: Overall, the Jats have a good self-image. "Men may come and men may go, but I go on forever," is a well-known Jat proverb. This sense of pride and accomplishment, along with a popular South Asian misconception that Christianity is only for the downcast, closes Jat hearts to responding to the gospel.
How reach: The Jats need clean drinking water and proper health care facilities. Christian medical teams and humanitarian aid workers are needed in rural areas to work among them and show them God's love in practical ways.
Pray for church: There are few followers of Christ among any Jat community. Pray that the few who answer Christ's call will be used of Him to share His glory and life-changing gospel with other Jats.
Pray for p g: Pray that Jat people will have a spiritual hunger that will drive them to seek and find Jesus Christ. Ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers filled with the power and the fruit of the Holy Spirit to serve the Jats. Pray for a disciple making movement to emerge among every Jat clan and community in the 2020s.

Summary: 1979 was a terrible year for the Rautes! Nepal's government forced these forest-oriented nomadic people into the hills. They were given land, and eventually most of them lost it to wealthy landowners. Most of them then returned to the forest, where they felt most at home. Bands of Rautes then took on new names and intermarried with other Nepali castes. Many villagers resented the Rautes, possibly because they had been given money, land, and homes as part of their resettlements. Although they have tried their hand at farming, their best skills involve finding useful things in the forest. Due to their forest locations, they are renowned for crafting and selling wooden bowls.
Obstacles: There are few, if any, Raute followers of Jesus. They will need to hear the gospel from less-than-trusted outsiders. These outsiders can teach them microbusiness skills to help their economy if people will accept them.
Pray for p g: Pray for the Raute to seek out God, who understands wandering, unwanted people. Pray also for a clear understanding of how to share the gospel with them from the perspective of God's own people, who, like Abraham, were often nomadic. May Raute nomads be given a heavenly home through Jesus.
