Summary

Some Sudanese Arabs live in towns or cities. They have a greater variety of occupations, but weaker family ties than those who live in the villages. These Arabs have more concern for such things as economic prosperity and education. Other Sudanese Arabs have continued living the nomadic lifestyle of their ancestors. They have temporary dwellings and move from place to place with their herds. Camels transport them across desert lands, and their economy is based primarily on livestock production and trade. Rigid codes of honor, loyalty, hostility and hospitality are among those values that have remained strong throughout the centuries. While the men gather in the local mosque five times a day for prayer, women meet in homes and have their own religious services conducted by female religious leaders. Perhaps women can lead others to the cross and the empty grave.

Obstacles

Much of the conflict faced by Sudanese Arabs is with Christianized people. This is an added barrier to the gospel.

Pray for p g

Pray for additional Bibles and Christian literature to be provided and distributed. Pray that God would raise up long term workers to join those who have already responded. Pray that the Holy Spirit would complete the work begun in their hearts through adequate discipleship. Pray that the Holy Spirit would anoint Christian broadcasts as they are aired among the Sudanese Arabs. Ask the Lord to raise up strong local churches among the Sudanese Arabs for the glory of his name. Pray for Sudanese women to hear and respond to the gospel by teaching their children.

Summary

The Gaaliin are easily recognized by their facial scars, many of which are in the form of a T or H. The scars are a sign of tribal pride and are even more common among women than among men, as they are considered a sign of beauty. The Gaaliin are a close-knit tribe that quickly identifies with one another, coming to each other's aid in times of trouble or during celebrations. Some Gaaliins still farm and raise livestock along the banks of the Nile River, but today they are more commonly found among the bulk of the Sudanese urban population, forming a large part of the merchant class.

Obstacles

Like so many other Sudanese people groups, the Gaaliin follow the Islamic faith, and are generally very committed Sunni Muslims. They are not open to hearing about the matchless name of Jesus.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to soften the hearts of the Gaaliin so that they will be receptive to the gospel. Ask the Holy Spirit to grant wisdom and favor to Christ followers focusing on the Gaaliin. Pray for Gaaliin elders to have dreams of the Savior that will open their hearts to him. Pray for Gaaliin disciples to make more disciples.

Summary

The Guhayna are a nomadic Sudanese Arab tribe whose name is synonymous with all Sudanese nomads. A common culture binds these Sudanese Arabs with other Arabs around the world: rigid codes of honor, loyalty and hospitality.

Obstacles

Conversion from Islam to Christianity is not accepted and there can be serious consequences. Consequently, there are few Sudanese Arabs who follow Christ. Despite Christian workers in Sudan for many years, most effort concentrates on the southern Sudanese, neglecting the country's Muslim majority.

How reach

There are a number of gospel resources in their language. Pray for opportunities to use these tools effectively.

Pray for church

There are probably a few followers of Christ among the Guhayna people. Pray they would live holy lives and would be joyful always, praying continually and giving thanks to the Lord in all circumstances. Pray God would use them to draw the entire Guhayna tribe to Jesus Christ.

Pray for p g

Please pray for adequate rainfall for the crops and livestock of the Guhayna Arabs and for pure drinking water. Pray for a spiritual hunger that will lead them to the cross.

Summary

Darfur, the name of the area where they live today, means the Homeland of the Fur. This area was known in the 16th century as Southern Nubia. They are an active farming people and may also raise cattle. The Fur are nominally Sunni Muslims following the Maliki school of Islamic law. They are kin to the Kanuri people of Nigeria, with whom they maintained contact over the centuries.

Obstacles

The Darfur area is in much turmoil, a dangerous place.

How reach

Workers need to minister to the Fur by helping them physically and materially. The needs are great.

Pray for church

Pray for a movement to Jesus to multiply among Fur families and neighborhoods.There are few followers of Christ among the Fur, but pray the Lord will soon build his church among this ancient community. Pray they will keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to help the Fur care properly for their families, and to live lives of peace in a dangerous land. Pray the Lord gives them increasing hunger to learn more about Jesus (whom Muslims call Isa al-Masih), the Prince of Peace.

Summary

The Shaikia claim descent from Shayig Ibn Humaidan, who came from Arabia at the time of the conquest of Egypt in the 7th century. The Shaikia consist of twelve sub-tribes, each descended from one of the twelve sons of the founder, Shaig. Most children attend government school. Women teach while men farm. Children attend religious schools called Khalawi where they learn and memorize the Koran before attending government school. The Shaikia tribe speaks and writes its own Arabic dialect.

Obstacles

Muslims in Sudan do not welcome Christian workers, so evangelists need creative access approaches.

How reach

Perhaps the Shaikia tribe will discover the availability of scripture downloads in their language to phones and computers. Because the Shaikia have twelve sub-tribes, the twelve tribes of Israel might be a bridge of God to open them to reading the Old Testament.

Pray for church

Pray for the few individuals within the Shaikia tribe who identify themselves as Christians; that they would live holy lives and consistently demonstrate the fruit of God's Spirit.

Pray for p g

Pray for peace in Sudan. Pray also the Shaikia tribe would have improved medical care and for adequate rainfall for their crops and livestock as a testimony of God's power and love. Pray this would be the decade of harvest among this unreached and neglected people group.

Summary

The Gawamaa people of Sudan are part of the Baggara people group. They are primarily nomadic cattle herders. Men and women do not eat together unless they are married. Spending time together is a vital part of Arab community living and for one to deny his friends or family this time is highly looked down upon. Because the Baggara as a whole are not an educated people, few are involved in political life. Nearly all Gawamaa Baggara are Muslim.

Obstacles

Since the Baggara have a low literacy rate, the good news of Jesus needs to come to them in oral form more than in written form.

How reach

Those with skills in water purification and treatment could provide help and better health for this people group living in the dry climates of Sudan. There is a great need for help in the Darfur area. Humanitarian aid workers could provide much relief to the Gawamaa and other peoples in the area.

Pray for church

There may not be a single follower today of Jesus among the Gawamaa of Sudan. However, pray for those the Lord will soon call to himself. Pray they would live holy lives and learn to be filled with the Lord's Spirit.

Pray for p g

Pray for peace throughout Sudan and especially for peace between Sudan and the peoples of South Sudan.

Summary

The Kawahla are one of the Sudanese Arab ethnic groups. Kawahla are African in many respects; however, they still retain aspects of their Arab culture, such as loyalty, hospitality and strict codes of honor. Sudanese Arabs also retain characteristics of Arab family and societal life such as the distinct roles of males and females. Males are highly valued and women occupy a subservient role beneath the men. However, in Sudanese Arab culture, women enjoy more freedom and liberty than women in many Arab societies around the world.

Obstacles

Access to the peoples of Sudan is somewhat limited. Christian workers are not welcome.

How reach

Christians may be able to find ways to assist the Kawahla people with their material and physical needs. Bridges of trust and friendship may open doors to the gospel.

Pray for church

There are few Christians today among the Kawahla people. They need prayer support. Pray for these and for others who will soon come to faith in Christ. Pray they would have access to scripture, both in printed and in recorded form.

Pray for p g

Pray for the message of Jesus to come to the Kawahla in a way that connects with their cultural values of loyalty and honor.

Summary

The Bederia are one of the numerous Baggara tribes of northern Sudan. The Baggara, also known as Shuwa Arabs, are a nomadic Bedouin people inhabiting Africa between Lake Chad and the Nile. They are cattle-herding Arabs, although sometimes mixed with indigenous tribes.

Obstacles

The Bederia tribe lives in an area difficult for outsiders to access. They also likely have a low literacy rate, so gospel materials need to be in audio form.

How reach

Followers of Christ can help the Bederia people with their medical and educational needs. These believers will need to establish trust.

Pray for church

There are no or few Christ followers among the Bederia people of Sudan. Pray that soon there would be Bible-based fellowships faithfully meeting together and that pastors and teachers would rise up to lead them closer to Jesus Christ. Pray for Scripture availability.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Bederia tribe to be able to care for their families, for good water supplies and adequate food and housing. Pray for peace in Sudan. Pray for Bederia leaders to understand the worth of Jesus Christ and allow his servants to bless their community. Pray for an unstoppable movement to Christ among the Bederia people this decade.

Summary

The Hasania are one of the many “Arabized tribes” in Sudan. They all speak Sudanese Arabic, and their lifestyles are similar. Most live much like the Arabs of other regions. Yet there are differences. For example, instead of living a rural lifestyle, it's common for those from the Hasania community to be businessmen or merchants.

Obstacles

The majority of the Arabized tribes is Sudan are not being ministered to by mission agencies and there are no known believers living among them. Further evangelistic work and much prayer are needed to penetrate the hearts of these precious people with the

How reach

The New Testament and various oral materials are available in Sudanese Arabic. These can be read or listened to by Hasania people in the privacy of their own homes.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to call people who are willing to go to Sudan and share Christ with the Hasania. Pray that the Christians of Sudan will be compelled to take the gospel to their unreached neighbors. Ask the Lord to raise up Christian medical teams to work among Arabized tribes like the Hasania. Pray for dreams and visions of the risen Christ to draw Hasania elders out of their spiritual slumber.

Summary

For the Arabized Rufaa people, agriculture is the basis of the economy. Sorghum and millet are their staple crops, along with watermelons, gourds, okra, sesame, and cotton. They also raise cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys, and dogs. They make cheese and butter from the milk of both the cows and goats. Most of the Arabized tribes live in permanent settlements or villages. Their houses are simple round huts with thatched roofs. Those who are nomadic live in temporary camps due to their constant migrating tendencies.

Obstacles

There is much hatred and animosity between Muslims and Christians in Sudan. This will make it harder for Sudanese Muslims like the Rufaa to accept any spiritual input from Christians.

How reach

There is the JESUS Film and audio Bible portions online the Rufaa people can download in the privacy of their own homes.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Rufaa people in Sudan. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Rufaa people. Pray for the Rufaa people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the Word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Rufaa people.

Summary

The Masalit are a non-Arab people group living in the most remote and unknown areas of the North African countries of Sudan and Chad. In the past, the Masalit developed a reputation for being fiercely independent. They primarily make their living through agriculture. Each village has a masik, or central shaded clearing, where men gather to socialize, pray and discuss village matters. The Masalit practice Islam, and the religion dominates political and social life and values. Many are becoming increasingly orthodox.

Obstacles

Sudan provides a difficult environment in which to live. The climate and terrain are harsh, and outsiders are often seen with suspicion.

How reach

Christian workers can carry the good news of Jesus to the tribes of Sudan using Gospel recordings and films, as well as relating stories from Scripture. Oral communication is needed, for evangelism and for discipleship purposes.

Pray for church

Pray for the Holy Spirit to work powerfully through those ministering to the Masalit people. Pray for the followers of Jesus among the Masalit. There are only a few, and they need prayer support. Pray they will find each other in order to fellowship together. Pray they will clearly understand the basis of their faith, and rest firmly on Christ and his finished work on the cross.

Pray for p g

Pray the Masalit people will be able to live peacefully with the neighboring tribes, and will be able to care adequately for their families. Pray for clean water to drink, and for sufficient, healthy food.

Summary

The term "Kababish" is usually used to describe anybody who is half Arabic and half black. The Kababish are a loose tribal confederation of Arabic people of mixed origins who live in a region of desert scrubland. They are traditionally Muslim but do not strictly follow the rules of Islam due to their harsh desert lifestyle. While Kababish men move across the desert with their camel herds, the women and children stay home.

Obstacles

Access to these people is very difficult. Many are nomadic and Sudan is harsh.

How reach

Connecting with and talking about Jesus with home-bound women may be a fruitful strategy. Radio broadcasts for these women would also be helpful. Men who work in the marketplace could be effective in reaching the men.

Pray for p g

Pray that the gift of life would draw many from this people group to worship God only. Pray for peace in Sudan, and for adequate food and water for the Kababish people and for their livestock. Ask God to give the Kababish hearts to hear the good news of Jesus and to seek him in the Bible. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Kababish.

Summary

Eastern Sudan has been the homeland of the Beja since the days of the pharaohs 4,000 years ago. In general, the Beja have always rejected authority and they greatly value their nomadic freedom. For the most part they have not changed their lifestyle or practices in the last 1,500 years. Most Beja are nomadic herders of camels and goats, although some have adopted sedentary lifestyles in the towns and cities of eastern Sudan. Their crown of fuzzy hair (tiffa) has characterized the Beja for centuries. Although the Beja had partially accepted Christianity in 500 A.D., their conversion was only skin deep and beginning in 640 A.D., when Arabs first invaded Sudan, the Beja began to gradually adopt the Islamic faith. The Beja continue to be highly afraid of jinn, or evil spirits.

Obstacles

For the Beja to become disciples of Jesus Christ would require changing a world view and cultural practices dating back many centuries. Making such change requires heart-wrenching struggle. Much prayer is needed to prepare people for such change.

How reach

Gospel recordings are available in the language of the Beja, as are scripture portions. Workers are needed to carry these resources to the people.

Pray for church

There may be no followers of Christ among the Beja at this time. Pray they will become dissatisfied with the empty religions they have experienced in their lives and seek the true God.

Pray for p g

Pray the Beja people may be freed from the fear of jinns, evil spirits. Pray they instead will find the love of Christ, which casts out fear. Pray also for sufficient rainfall to sustain their livestock in the dry region where people live.

Summary

The Habbania, a subgroup of the Baggara, live a nomadic lifestyle. Each year, they move their herds south to the river lands during the dry season and north to the grasslands during the rainy season. Before changing locations, the Habbania usually plant sorghum, sesame, millet, and beans in their fields, harvesting the crops on their return. The Baggara live in simple, portable dome-shaped tents built by the women. Married women own the tents and their household contents. The men build a sun shelter either inside or just outside of the camp.

Obstacles

Mission agencies have ministered among the Baggara tribes but have met little success. The combination of strong devotion to Islam and a nomadic lifestyle creates significant obstacles to mission work among them. Very few have come to find faith in Christ.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to assemble prayer teams who use worship and intercession to God for kingdom expansion among the Habbania. Pray also that God will raise up long-term workers to go to each Baggara subgroup. Pray that the Holy Spirit will complete the work among the Habbania through adequate discipleship and that these disciples will minister so others can accept these gospel truths. Pray for witnessing believers, filled with the Holy Spirit, to work in all Habbania Baggara villages.

Summary

The Kanuri tribes consist of the Yerwa Kanuri, the Manga Kanuri, and several other sub-tribes. Most live in the Borno Province of northeastern Nigeria, where they are the dominant people group. They are also located in the countries of Niger, Chad and Cameroon. Most Kanuri are farmers. Among the Kanuri, owning horses brings prestige. Yerwa Kanuri who live in cities are involved in government jobs, public service, construction, transportation, and commerce. The Yerwa Kanuri who have occupations that are related to politics or religion have a very high social status. Those who work as blacksmiths, well-diggers, or butchers have a low social status. Their family and married lives are not good.

Obstacles

The Kanuri have been Muslims since the eleventh century, and they are dedicated to the Islamic religious system. As far as we know there are no Yerwa Kanuri Christ followers in Sudan.

How reach

Yerwa Kanuri families need help in staying together. Perhaps believers who are gifted in bringing reconciliation can help marriages stay together.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to heal Yerwa Kanuri marriages and lead them into the love and respect it takes for a lasting union. Pray for God to give dreams of the victorious, risen Christ to Yerwa Kanuri elders. Pray for a spiritual hunger among the Yerwa Kanuri that will lead them to seek and find Jesus Christ. Pray for the Lord to thrust out Holy Spirit-driven workers to lead the Yerwa Kanuri people to the cross. Pray for a movement to Christ among all Kanuri subgroups.

Summary

The country of Sudan has experienced violence and upheavals for decades. The Berti live in the Darfur region of western Sudan. They herd livestock and raise crops and they try to avoid the violence that plagues their land. However, intertribal wars have entered their region. If there are followers of Jesus today among the Berti tribe, they need people to assist them to grow spiritually in Christ. Gospel radio can be a helpful tool for spiritual growth. The Berti also need access to modern medicine and clean water.

Obstacles

Sudan is generally hostile to Christian witness. Access to the Berti homeland is limited. There are many dangers and difficulties.

Pray for p g

Summary

The Shukria are a large clan of Arab nomads. They are known for nomadic life in the Buttana region of Sudan between the Atbara River and the Blue Nile southwest of the city of Khartoum. They live primarily in rural villages and settlements situated along small waterways. Life is centered around the village for most of the Shukria.They are primarily Sunni Muslims and speak an Arabic dialect called Shukri. Social life is important to the Shukria. They typically share a daily coffee time by sitting on the floor and drinking coffee.

Obstacles

Nomads are difficult to contact for the purpose of establishing friendship and trust. Also, they have been committed to Islam and their way of life for many generations.

How reach

Please pray that Gospel radio will be made widely available through Arabic speaking regions of the Middle East and North Africa. Also, pray for Arabic language websites and scripture downloads to be found by the people.

Pray for church

There may be a few followers of Jesus among this nomadic tribe. Please pray for these, and also for the many additional individuals who will soon come to faith in Christ. Pray they will trust fully in the finished work of Christ on the cross, not attempting to gain God's favor in any other manner.

Pray for p g

Please pray for peace throughout Sudan, and for improving economic conditions.

Summary

The Fulani have lighter skin, thinner lips, and straighter hair than other African groups living near them. Centuries ago, the Fulani tribes migrated from northern Africa and the Middle East into Central and West Africa. Eventually some found their way further east to Sudan. Most of them are still nomadic shepherds who travel with their flocks in search of better grazing land. Fulani herders trade with neighboring tribes for millet, yams, and peanuts. Milk from their livestock is the main staple in their diet, and this distinguishes them from the tribes who do not milk their cattle. They are located in an almost horizontal strip across Africa from Senegal in the west to Sudan in the east. The Sahara Desert forms their northernmost boundary, while the threat of tsetse flies control their movement to the south.

Obstacles

In terms of spiritual beliefs, the Fulani are almost entirely Sunni Muslim with many animistic beliefs blended in. Their identity is in Islam as a political-religious system, leaving no room to be identified with Christ alone.

How reach

Believers with the right skills can have access to Fulani communities by working to eradicate tsetse flies and other pests that threaten livestock. Those who have skills in building wells can help the Fulani find valuable potable water.

Pray for church

There are no followers of Christ among the Fulani people in Sudan. Pray for a move of the Holy Spirit that will change this soon.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Fulani to come in contact with Holy Spirit-led believers. Pray for the Holy Spirit to do a new work among Fulani leaders that will open doors for a movement to Christ. Pray for faithful teams to regularly pray for the Fulani people. There are gospel recordings available in their languages. Pray that Fulani people will have access to them, as well as Christian radio broadcasts. Pray that there will soon come a day when there will be skits and plays that teach the Fulani about the life of Christ and about Christ-like living.

Summary

Each year, Lahawin people move their herds south to river lands during dry season and north to grasslands during the rainy season. Before changing locations, they usually plant sorghum, sesame, millet, and beans in their fields, harvesting the crops on their return. Some live in farming communities or towns.

Obstacles

Because Lahawin are so devoted to the Islamic religion, very few are willing to listen to someone who wants to tell them about the abundant life offered by Jesus. Their nomadic lifestyle makes it very difficult for missionaries to reach them.

How reach

Since the women are capable of adequately maintaining the household, the men will sometimes leave for one or two years at a time to work in other countries. Women and children might be open to practical aids and ministry outreach as relationships and trust are established.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to send dreams and visions to Lahawin leaders, so they will open the door for Jesus to enter the hearts of their people. Pray for the Lord to send out Holy Spirit anointed workers to the Lahawin in Sudan. Pray for a Disciple Making Movement among Lahawin this decade.

Summary

The numerous Baggara tribes of northern Sudan share many cultural characteristics and claim a common ancestry. All of them speak an Arabic dialect known as Baggari that can be understood by both Arabic and Sudanese Arabic speakers. One of the Baggara tribes is known as Sherifi. Although most Baggara tribes like the Sherifi are nomadic, there are some that live in farming communities or towns. Their houses are built of mud bricks and have thatched roofs. Corrals for the young animals are built inside the compounds. Grazing land is usually shared, but farmland is owned individually.

Obstacles

Very little evangelization has been done among the Baggara tribes, and there are probably no Christian believers among the Sherifi. The people are so devoted to the Islamic faith very few Baggara have decided to follow Jesus. In addition, the nomadic lifestyle of many of the Baggara makes it very difficult for missionaries to reach them.

How reach

God can encourage and protect the small number of Baggara Muslims who have become Christian believers. They can reach the Sherifi people.

Pray for p g

Pray that God will raise up long term workers to join those who have already responded. Pray that the Holy Spirit will complete the work begun in their hearts through adequate discipleship. Pray that the Christians living in Northern Sudan will be stirred with vision for outreach and a genuine burden to reach out to the Baggara tribes. Ask the Lord to raise up strong fellowships of believers.

Summary

The Husseinat in Sudan are ethnically Arab. They have high status because Muslims believe their descendants include the Prophet Mohammad and his grandson Hussein. They also go by the name Sayyid or Sayed. Husseinat people hold much power in Sudan. They are among high-ranking military officers, government officials and businessmen. This community has much power in cultural matters as well. They are generous with their money, a trait admired by the people of Sudan.

Obstacles

There is much animosity between Christians and Muslims in Sudan that can pose a barrier to the gospel.

How reach

Music and drama in the local language can open hearts and minds to the eternal gospel.

Pray for p g

Pray for a movement of Jesus to heal and strengthen Husseinat communities. Pray for the Husseinat people to understand and embrace that Jesus wants to bless their families and neighborhoods. Pray for Holy Spirit anointed believers from the Husseinat people to change their society from within. Pray for a movement in which the Holy Spirit leads and empowers disciples to make more disciples.

Summary

We know very little about the Gimma (or Jam'a). Most likely, they are a rural people who must live near a source of water to survive in a dry land. Most peoples of Sudan are trying to make a living from farming, though only a small percentage of the land is arable. Sorghum and millet are grains that grow well in dry parts of Africa like the Gimma homeland.

Obstacles

The Gimma are entirely Muslim. They probably view Christians as their enemies. It will not be easy for them to accept the centrality of Christ given that their teachers tell them that the Bible cannot be trusted.

Pray for p g

Pray that God would strengthen, embolden and protect the few Gimma believers. Very few are Christian of any kind. Ask the Lord to save key leaders among the Gimma who would proclaim the gospel to their own people. Ask God to raise up prayer teams who will begin breaking up the soil through worship and intercession. Pray that strong local churches would be raised up among the Gimma.

Summary

The Nyiman economy is based on agriculture. During the winter months, they grow wheat, barley, millet, beans, peas, and watermelons. Mangoes, citrus fruits, and palm dates are also part of the Nubian diet. A thin, coarse bread called dura is one of their basic staple foods. The typical Nyiman house is very spacious, with several large rooms that are able to accommodate the extended family members and guests. In the center of each home is an open courtyard. The front of the house is colorfully painted with geometric patterns. The colorful designs are a distinctive and admired feature of Nyiman culture.

Obstacles

There is much hostility between Christians and Muslims in Sudan.

How reach

There are Bible portions and audio recordings that Christ followers can take to the Nyiman people.

Pray for p g

Pray that the Lord will raise up laborers who are willing to invest long term service as missionaries to the Nyiman people. Pray that loving African Christians will gain a vision to see the Nyiman reached with the gospel. Ask the Lord to save key leaders among the Nyiman who will boldly declare the gospel. Pray that God will raise up linguists to translate the entire Word of God into the Nyiman language, Ama. Ask God to send medical teams and humanitarian aid workers to minister to the Nyiman people.

Summary

Arabization of the African peoples of Sudan began in the 1300s with the powerful Ja 'alin tribe. This country has been becoming more Arab and less African ever since. Sudan is a mixture of Arabic culture from the north and sub-Saharan African culture from the south. The Arabic culture is dominant, and many of the African peoples, including the Birgids, learn Arabic and live more like Arabs than sub-Saharan Africans. Being more "Arab" than "African" allows someone to be part of the culture that holds political and economic power. For the most part, the Birgid culture is being eclipsed by the Arabs, so most Birgid people are now "Arabized."

Obstacles

Being part of the Arab's Islamic religion gives the Arabized Birgid people greater status. It will be difficult for them to overcome this.

How reach

The Arabized Birgid need to find ways to earn a living and stay away from ethnic violence. Christ followers can help teach job skills to those who live in urban centers.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Arabized Birgid people to have the chance to hear about what Jesus Christ has to offer them. Pray for them to have the gift of faith that will draw them to the only Savior. Pray for a disciple making movement to emerge among this Muslim people group.

Summary

From an ecological standpoint, there are places that blend two ecological communities which we call an ecotone. For example, a desert gradually morphs into a chaparral community when the land becomes less dry and different plant life emerges. Likewise, there are places in Sudan that are predominantly Arab, and further south, the culture and the people are sub-Saharan African, but blended with that of the Arabs. The Nyimang tribe is now Arabized. They retain aspects of their traditional culture, but it is being replaced by Arab culture and language.

Obstacles

Identity is very important to everyone. Arabized tribes place their identity in everything Arab, including the Islamic religion.

How reach

Christian workers can introduce Jesus, the only savior, to the Arabized Nyimang people. They will need to take time, find persons of peace, and introduce stories of Jesus' wonders and saving work on the cross.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Nyimang people. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Nyimang people. Pray for the Arabized Nyimang people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the Word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Nyimang people.

Summary

The numerous Baggara tribes of northern Sudan such as the Maalia, share many cultural characteristics and claim a common ancestry. All of them speak an Arabic dialect known as Baggari that can be understood by both Arabic and Sudanese Arabic speakers. Maalia society is patrilineal, which means that the line of descent is traced through the males. Traditionally each camp is headed by a male leader called shaykh. Although this position is generally inherited, all adult male members of a camp must agree on the man who is to fill the position. The shaykh does not rule the camp, but rather acts as the spokesperson for the decision-making males of the camp.

Obstacles

Very little evangelization has been done among the Maalia or any other Baggara tribe. The people are so devoted to the Islamic religion very few have decided to follow Jesus. In addition, the nomadic lifestyle makes it very difficult for missionaries to r

How reach

The New Testament and the JESUS Film are in the language of the Maalia people. If people distributed it to them, they would find out what they are missing.

Pray for p g

Pray for the end of violence between the tribes of Sudan. Pray for a spiritual hunger and thirst among the Maalia people that will lead them to find the Savior. Pray for Holy Spirit directed workers to go to them with the gospel.

Summary

The Rashaida are a Bedouin people populating either side of the Red Sea coming from a major tribe in mainland Arabia about 150 years ago. They are a nomadic people who often live in tents made of goatskins and herdsmen who primarily raise goats and sheep. Despite being by majority illiterate, they memorize the pedigree of their animals in great detail, keeping mental records of their herds over seven or eight generations of the flock. The Rashaida have been known to be extremely hospitable and open to extending kindness to strangers.

Obstacles

Until recently, there were no known believers among the Rashaida. Though this changed during the Eritrean and Ethiopia border war from 1998 to 2000, when many interacted with others who knew Christ, the numbers of believers remain low. Their constant movement as nomads makes connecting and maintaining relationships with them difficult.

Pray for p g

Pray for peace in the lives of the Rashaida families and lengthened stability in Sudan. Pray for the few followers of Christ who exist and work in the Rashaida community and for any believers who will soon come into their faith. Pray that they may build up a great community with each other. Pray for Rashaida to receive the gospel message and spread it far and wide.

Summary

The many Baggara tribes of northern Sudan share many cultural characteristics and claim a common ancestry. All of them speak an Arabic dialect known as Baggari, that both Arabic and Sudanese Arabic speakers can understand. Their name comes from the Arabic word bagar, which means "cow," and refers to the various Arab tribes in Sudan (and surrounding nations), who herd cattle. We call one of these tribes the Dubasiyin. Most of the Dubasiyin are herdsmen. They raise cattle, although some also raise sheep and goats. They keep camels for riding and as pack animals.

Obstacles

There has been very little evangelization among Baggara tribes. The people devote themselves to the Islamic religious system. They will not consider following Jesus Christ. Their nomadic lifestyle makes it difficult for missionaries to reach them.

How reach

Even Christ followers who don't want to live the Dubasiyin's nomadic lifestyle can distribute New Testaments in their language.

Pray for p g

Pray for African believers to have hearts that are willing to take Jesus to the Dubasiyin people. Pray for the Dubasiyin people to have hearts that are open to the abundant blessings of Jesus Christ. Pray for their families to prosper financially and spiritually as they experience a relationship with Jesus Christ. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Dubasiyin that will spread joy, peace, and salvation to other peoples in East Africa.

Summary

The Hausa have been heavily involved in long distance trading for many centuries. Traders once exchanged gold from the Middle East for leather, crafts, and food. In the process of traveling and trading, some Hausa people have migrated east to places like Sudan, which is over 2,000 miles from Hausaland. Sudan is as far east as the Hausas have settled. In Sudan, the Hausas mingle with the local population, which is an Arabic-centered culture. In comparison to some other African tribes, the Hausa have reasonable standards of health care, diet, shelter, electricity, and education. However, life for the Hausa is still very difficult. For example, they suffer from a high unemployment rate, and only about half of the population can read and write.

Obstacles

Because Islam was carried throughout Africa by Hausa traders and priests, nearly everyone expects a Hausa to be Muslim. This could be one of the main reasons why the Hausa stay so resistant to the gospel. The Hausa culture is strongly linked to Islam, which makes it difficult to reach this people group with the gospel. Among the Muslim populations of Sudan there is a lot of prejudice against Christians, so the Hausas are not likely to be receptive to them.

How reach

The Hausa have physical needs such as education and safe drinking water. Many are in need of jobs. Believers with skills that can help the Hausas in Sudan can help them get education and safe drinking water.

Pray for church

There are few if any believers among the Hausas in Sudan. Pray for a move of the Holy Spirit that will draw them to the Lord.

Pray for p g

Pray that the Hausa people would come to know Jesus, the giver of living water. Thank God for the Hausa Bible and the powerful impact that the Holy Scriptures has upon Muslims. Pray for Bible studies and church planting movements to start among the Hausa people throughout Africa.

Summary

The process of Arabization of Sudan's tribes accelerated when Sudanese Arabs filled the power vacuum left by the Egyptians and the British colonialists at the time of independent in 1956. Arab Muslims achieved greater influence through conquest and an Arabic language-based education system. The Arabized tribes of Sudan include the Mararit people. For the Arabized Mararit people, agriculture is the basis of the economy. Sorghum and millet are their staple crops. Their meat and daily needs are met through their cattle and goats.

Obstacles

As Sudan's tribes have become Arabized, they have embraced the Islamic religious system as a central part of their identity. They dismiss anything they consider un-Islamic.

How reach

Christ followers can use friendship evangelism. It will take much time to break through, but the results are eternal.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Mararit people. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Mararit people. Pray for the Arabized Mararit people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the Word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Mararit people.

Summary

The Gaahmg, or Tabi, believe that dreams are significant for gaining insight and guidance. Their Islamic practice is mixed with pre-Islamic beliefs, such as worship of the sun. They live in the Tabi Hills of Sudan, which provide rocky terrain that helps them remain isolated from the surrounding dominating peoples. The region is divided into many sections, with each section having its own grazing ground, hunting areas, and farmland. A chief serves as the religious and political head of each section. The Gaahmg are known for their hostility towards outsiders, and they have never been conquered, allowing them to retain their culture and language. Their hostile reputation has kept out refugees and most outsiders, though, at some point, Muslim missionaries reached them.

Obstacles

Physically reaching the Gaahmg is a challenge due to the terrain of their location. Spiritually reaching them with the gospel is hindered by their reluctance to accept outside influence.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to give dreams and visions to Gaahmg religious leaders, drawing them to the King of kings. Pray for their leaders to open the door for Christ to bless their families and communities. Pray for the Lord to bless the Gaahmg in practical ways, that they will understand his love and desire for them to be part of his family. Pray for the Lord to thrust out workers into the Gaahmg harvest.

Summary

The roles of Shuwa Arab men and women are very distinct. The women are responsible for milking the cows. They sell the raw milk to factories, and processed milk either at the marketplace or door to door. The women also build the houses, tend to the children, go for water, prepare the daily meals, and trade in the marketplace. The men are primarily involved with caring for the herds. They also plant and harvest the crops. Although the mother is the primary caretaker of the children, the father may also show them some affection, or discipline them from time to time. Since the women are capable of adequately maintaining the household, the men will sometimes leave for one or two years at a time to work in other countries.

Obstacles

There is great animosity between Muslims and Christians in Sudan. This provides an added barrier to the gospel.

How reach

Perhaps Christ followers with veterinarian skills can travel with the Shuwa Arabs and help their precious cattle.

Pray for p g

Pray that God will raise up long term workers to join those who have already responded. Ask God to encourage and protect the small number of Muslims who have become Christian believers. Pray that the Holy Spirit will complete the work begun in their hearts through adequate discipleship. Pray that Christians living in West Africa will be stirred with vision for outreach and a genuine burden to reach out to the Shuwa Arab tribes.

Summary

The homes of the Dar Fur Daju villages are usually round and have cone-shaped roofs. Town homes are rectangular in shape, with mud-brick walls and flat roofs. Young boys and girls of the villages become members of social groups and work groups. They perform community chores, such as keeping the villages clean and organizing village dances. The Dar Fur Daju are a patriarchal society in which the families are dominated by the older men. All parents desire to have a male heir, so sons are pampered while they are young.

Obstacles

The Dar Fur Daju people live in a place where war and drought often happen. It will be difficult for find missionaries who are willing to stay in such a situation. There are almost no Christian materials in the heart language of the Dar Fur Daju people.

How reach

Most speakers of minority languages also speak a major language such as Arabic. Christian material in another language could be used by relief workers.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Dar Fur Daju people to have hearts that are open to the abundant blessings of Jesus Christ. Pray for their families to prosper financially and spiritually as they experience a relationship with Jesus Christ. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Dar Fur Daju that will spread joy, peace, and salvation to other peoples in Sudan.

Summary

When Sudan gained her independence in 1956, there was a power vacuum filled by Arab Muslims. Arab Muslims extended their influence and political power over African tribes through conquest and an Arabic language-based education system. The Arabized tribes of Sudan include the Midob people. For the Arabized Midob people, agriculture is the basis of the economy. Sorghum and millet are their staple crops. They also raise cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys, and dogs. They make cheese and butter from the milk of both the cows and goats.

Arabized tribes have embraced everything they view as “Arab” including Islam. Therefore, they are seldom open to spiritual answers outside the Islamic grid.

How reach

It will take patient and loving Christian workers to take the only savior to the Arabized Midob people. They will need to understand the glory of Christ far exceeds all cultures and nations.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Midob people. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Midob people. Pray for the Arabized Midob people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Midob people.

Summary

The Nuba people claim to be the original inhabitants of the Nuba Mountains. For centuries this area was also a refuge for various people fleeing oppressive governments and slave traders, creating a situation where there are nearly 100 different dialects. One of these is Tegali, spoken by the Togale people. Although the people are collectively referred to as "Nuba," the term is used as a regional grouping for a people who share the same environment and stand out as distinct from the surrounding tribes. Because of the linguistic diversity in the Nuba Mountains, many speak Arabic as a trade language.

Obstacles

Because most of the Nuba tribes originally fled to the mountains for refuge, they generally dislike and distrust outsiders. It will be difficult for outsiders to reach the Arabized peoples in this region, including the Tagale.

How reach

Christian Outsiders can help them establish wells for their water needs and introduce better irrigation.

Pray for p g

Pray for an enormous harvest for the Togale people, and that they will understand it as God's provision for their needs. Pray for spiritual hunger that will lead Togale leaders to seek and find the only savior. Pray for the Lord to thrust out steadfast workers to the Togale and other peoples of the Nuba Mountains. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Togale people, leading them to God's abundant blessings.

Summary

The Jumjum are a Nilotic people, a term used to refer to those who live in or around the upper Nile Valley. Long subjected to foreign influence, the Jumjum are a somewhat mixed group. In years past, they have had close contact with the Dinka, Nuer, and Shilluk groups. These tribes often invaded the Jumjum area, raiding it for slaves. The Jumjum are closely related, both geographically and linguistically, to the Burun; and some consider the two groups as one. The Jumjum are farmers and shepherds. Most are animists, and worship the supreme god Dyong.

Obstacles

No written Scripture is available in the language of the Jumjum.

How reach

Pray the Lord will start a movement of Jumjum families experiencing God's blessings.

Pray for church

Pray for the few believers among the Jumjum, living in a difficult situation. Pray they will be firmly established in the faith, growing in holiness.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Jumjum to be able to provide adequately for their families and for good schools for their children.

Summary

Most of Sudan's Arabized African tribes live much like the Arabs in Sudan. Their lives revolve around important ceremonies such as birth, marriage and death. The most elaborate of all ceremonies is the marriage ceremony. For the Arabized Dilling people, agriculture is the basis of the economy. Sorghum and millet are their staple crops, along with watermelons, gourds, okra, sesame, and cotton. They also raise cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys, and dogs.

Obstacles

The wedge between Muslims and Christians in Sudan goes way beyond theological issues. There has been violent conflict between the two religious communities, usually based on ethnicity or economics. Any Arabized Dilling person would face serious consequenc

How reach

It will take much bridge building for those who follow Christ to gain a fair hearing from any Sudanese Muslim. Perhaps Muslims like the Arabized Dilling will respond better to the JESUS Film or Arabic language gospel radio.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Dilling people in Sudan. Pray for the Arabized Dilling people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Dilling people.

Summary

Most Tama are sedentary and cultivate small fields, mainly millet but some sorghum, peanuts and beans. Some own mango or guava trees or cultivate gardens of tomatoes, onions and garlic. Some have cattle, sheep and goats but many of these have been stolen in recent years. In the past the Tama had many more camels and cattle but as another people group has moved into the Tama region many have been stolen to the point that camels owned by Tamas are now very rare. There is a heavy military presence in the region. Many young people relish the power they have as soldiers. Extreme poverty and lack of hope means that alcohol (millet beer) is a big problem for many Tama.

Obstacles

The Tama have been virtually all Muslim since the 1600s. They have hundreds of years of not challenging the works/righteousness of Islam.

How reach

Potential fields of work include medical work, teaching French, English or computing skills, agricultural development, tree planting, youth activities, translation and literacy, training mechanics. To help in these areas, Christians would need to live in a dangerous land.

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 Tama peoples 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

The Nubians consist of seven non-Arab Muslim tribes that originated in the Nubia region, an area between Aswan in southern Egypt and Dongola in northern Sudan. From the 1500s to the 1800s, the Ottoman Empire expanded into the Nubia region. As a result, many Nubians migrated to remote areas along the Nile. Distinct groups evolved and were named according to their locations. For example, those who settled near the Wadi Kenuz became known as the Kenuzi, while those who settled in Dongola became known as the Dongolawi. Though Nubians converted to Christianity during the sixth century, the gradual process of Islamization took place from the 1300s to the 1600s. Today, the Nubians are almost all Muslims. However, earlier animistic beliefs are mingled with Islamic practices.

Obstacles

No scripture or other Christian resources are reported in the Andaandi dialect, and most likely no Christ followers are among the Dongola.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to remember the prayers of Christian Nubians who lived long ago, who prayed for their descendants. Ask the Lord to raise up laborers who are willing to invest in long-term service to the Dongola Nubians. Pray that loving Christian neighbors will gain the vision to share the gospel with the Nubians. Ask the Lord to save key leaders among the Dongola Nubians who will boldly declare the gospel. Ask God to send medical teams and humanitarian aid workers to minister to the Dongola Nubians.

Summary

When a Rubatab baby is born, the mother must remain at home until forty days after the birth have passed. She lives with relatives and friends and people give her money. The baby is named after seven days. They eat a cow or sheep to celebrate. After forty days, there is another celebration and then the mother can leave the home. Women look after the home and the children. Girls help their mothers and can go to school. Men work to feed themselves and their families. Some are self-employed. People with plenty of money buy expensive cars and have high class homes.

Obstacles

There is much animosity between Christians and Muslims in Sudan. The Rubatab Muslims are not likely to give Christians a chance.

How reach

The Rubatab honor people who are generous to them. Perhaps Christ followers who go to them with gifts that will help them thrive will gain a chance to preach the gospel.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Holy Spirit to intervene among Rubatab elders, opening them to hear the gospel with their hearts and their heads. Pray for the Lord to thrust out loving and dedicated workers. Pray for Rubatab disciples who will make more disciples.

Summary

The Amdang raise grains, beans, sesame, and a variety of other crops; they also keep some livestock. A few Mimi are nomadic herdsmen. Mimi nomads live in mud homes made with thatched-roofs. Because of the shortage of water in their homeland, the settled Amdang are limited in the number of animals they can keep. Both the farmers and herdsmen of the Amdang are dependent on the rainfall. In draught years, both groups can face starvation. That goes for those who live in Chad as well as those who live in Sudan.

Obstacles

The Amdang have been dependent on Islamic rituals for generations. It will be difficult for them to put their faith in anything or anyone else. With few biblical resources, they have few chances to fall in love with Jesus Christ.

How reach

Christian believers can help the Amdang dig wells so they can have a reliable water supply.

Pray for p g

Pray that Bible resources will be available in the Amdang language very soon. Pray that the Lord will send believers who understand both their language and the spiritual mindset of these people. Pray that leaders, husbands and fathers will be saved and lead their families to Lord Jesus, and that strong churches will be planted and reproduced quickly and soon.

Summary

Arabization of the African peoples of Sudan began in the 1300s. This country has been becoming more Arab and less African ever since. Sudan is a mixture of Arabic culture from the north and sub-Saharan African culture from the south. The Arabic culture is dominant, and many of the African peoples, including the Wali, learn Arabic, and live like Arabs. There are many degrees of enculturation. Some have little contact with their traditional culture, while others are much more bi-cultural. Being more "Arab" than "African" allows someone to be part of the culture that holds political and economic power in Sudan. For the most part, the Wali culture is being eclipsed by the Arabs.

Obstacles

One aspect of being "Arabized" in Sudan is that one must be Sunni Muslim. That is true for the Arabized Wali people.

How reach

The Arabized Wali need to see the Christian life in action.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Arabized Wali people to have the chance to hear about what Jesus Christ has to offer them. Pray for them to have the gift of faith that will draw them to the only savior. Pray for a movement to Christ among this Muslim people group.

Summary

There are many sub-Saharan tribes in Sudan like the Kadaru that we describe as "Arabized." They look like sub-Saharan Africans and retain a certain degree of their original culture, yet they began adopting the traditions and practices associated with Arabic Islamic culture. Their houses are simple round huts with thatched roofs. Those who are nomadic live in temporary camps due to their constant migrating tendencies. They usually live in dome-shaped shelters made of branches covered with grass.

Obstacles

The constant turmoil in Sudan makes it difficult for gospel workers to go to unreached peoples like the Arabized Kadura.

How reach

You have heard it said that there are no atheists in foxholes. People who live in a dangerous situation are often looking for spiritual answers. The Arabized Kadura people can be reached through gospel radio in Arabic.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Kadaru people in Sudan. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Kadaru people. Pray for the Arabized Kadaru people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Kadaru people.

Summary

There are many sub-Saharan tribes in Sudan that we describe as "Arabized." They look like sub-Saharan Africans and retain a certain degree of their original culture, yet they began adopting the traditions and practices associated with Arabic Islamic culture. One of these is the Ghulfan tribe. Those who have adopted Arab culture and language are described as Arabized Ghulfans.

Obstacles

One of the things that is unique about the Sudanese Arabs is they don't have any Christian tradition like Arabs do further east and north. As they "Arabized" the tribes in Sudan, they made a point of spreading Islam along with their Arabic culture. For th

How reach

The Arabized Ghulfan need to open their hearts to the unmatched ways of Jesus. They need the JESUS Film and Arabic gospels. People need to pray for the Holy Spirit to do a wonderful work in their lives.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Arabized Ghulfan people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the Word of God. Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Ghulfan people. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Ghulfan people.

Summary

Most Lange Burun settlements are large. The people live in round huts with thatched grass roofs. Some men have up to four wives. Each wife has her own hut, but the first wife is "chief" over the other wives. Children live with their mothers in her hut. Until young girls marry, they remain with their mothers, but boys move out when they are able to build their own homes. Parents often arrange marriages, sometimes when their children are quite young. Before a marriage, the groom must perform a long period of bride-service (work done for the bride's family). The groom also must pay a small bride-price.

Obstacles

A majority of the Lange Burun have never had the opportunity to hear a clear presentation of the gospel. There is a great need for qualified laborers to live and work among these Muslims. There are probably no Christ followers among them.

How reach

It will take concentrated prayer and dedicated workers to see a movement to Christ among the Burun tribe.

Pray for p g

Pray for the end of violence between the tribes of Sudan. Pray for a spiritual hunger and thirst among the Burun people that will lead them to find the only savior. Pray for Holy Spirit directed workers to go to them with the gospel. Pray for a disciple making movement to sweep through Lange Burun families.

Summary

There are many sub-Saharan tribes in Sudan that we describe as "Arabized," one of which is the Tamain. They look like sub-Saharan Africans and retain a certain degree of their original culture, yet they began adopting the traditions and practices associated with Arabic Islamic culture. The process of Arabization accelerated when Sudanese Arabs filled the power vacuum at the time of independent in 1956. Arab Muslims achieved greater influence through conquest and an Arabic language-based education system.

Unlike some other Arabs, Sudanese Arabs have no Christian tradition. As they "Arabized" the tribes in Sudan, they made a point of spreading Islam along with Arabic culture. For this reason, Arabized tribes like the Temain are almost entirely Muslim, and v

How reach

Christian believers can take the savior to the Arabized Temain by helping them with their medical needs.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to provide for the physical and spiritual needs of the Arabized Temein people in Sudan. Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Temein people. Pray for the Arabized Temein people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Temein people.

Summary

The Abiyi Mararit rely on farming and raising cattle for their livelihood. One of their main dishes is millet served with various sauces, especially goat meat, okra, and onions. The men also hunt. Mararit women gather products from the forests on a regular basis. Abiyi Mararit women also help work in the field; engage in basketry, pottery, and other crafts; and brew beer from millet, both for consumption and to sell or trade. The men may also work as craftsmen or merchants.

Obstacles

Like all Mararit peoples, the Abiyi are Muslim. There is no one in their community to tell them of their need for the only savior.

How reach

Since most cannot read or write, non-print resources would be the best way to reach them. People who are skilled at writing music and skits that appeal to them would probably be welcomed into Abiyi Mararit villages. Christian teachers might also have open doors into these tribes.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to thrust out workers to the Abiyi Mararit people. Pray that they will have a thirst for the water of life that only Jesus can provide. Pray for the Lord to provide the Abiyi Mararit people with adequate rain for their crops as a testimony of his goodness and love. Pray for a movement to Christ that cannot be stopped.

Summary

Logol people live in the Nuba Mountains. They have their own language, Logol, within the Kordofanian language group. Because there are about 100 languages in the Nuba region, most also speak Sudanese Arabic as a trade language. Logol people raise livestock and grow grain, similar to the practices of the people around them.

Obstacles

Logal people must deal with the consequences of constant fighting in Sudan. Such a situation brings about internal "war" as they deal with death and destruction. In some cases, these situations give people greater spiritual hunger. In other cases, they blame God and want nothing to do with him.

Pray for p g

Pray that the uncertainty of life will drive Logal people into the loving arms of the only Savior. Pray for the Lord to give dreams of the victorious Christ to their elders and fathers. Pray for the Lord to meet the physical and spiritual needs of the Logol people and that they will respond with gratitude and faith. Pray for the Lord to send out workers anointed by the Holy Spirit to the Logol people.

Summary

The five Daju groups include the Shatt people. The Dajus make up some of the oldest communities in western Sudan and eastern Chad. Shatt women are subordinate to the men. A woman's responsibilities include sowing the millet and sorghum, grinding the grain, preparing the meals, buying dry meat in the marketplace, selling chickens and eggs, and bearing as many children as possible. They expect wives to please their husbands and to raise the children without the help of their husbands. Shatt women have many unique beauty customs. They whiten their teeth with sticks; tattoo their eyelids, gums, and lips with acacia thorns; and often remain bare breasted among relatives.

Obstacles

Many Shatt people are hostile towards Christians since there is much animosity between them and Muslims in Sudan.

How reach

Yet there are some Christians among the Shatt who can reach others for Christ.

Pray for p g

Pray for Shatt believers to have hearts that are ready and willing to take the name of Jesus to Muslims throughout their region. Pray for the Shatt people to have hearts that are open to the abundant blessings of Jesus Christ. Pray for their families to prosper financially and spiritually as they experience a relationship with Jesus Christ. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Shatt that will spread joy, peace, and salvation to other peoples in East Africa.

Summary

There are places in Sudan that are predominantly Arab, and further south, the culture and the people are sub-Saharan African, but blended with that of the Arabs. There are many sub-Saharan tribes in Sudan that we describe as "Arabized." They look like sub-Saharan Africans and retain a certain degree of their original culture, yet they began adopting the traditions and practices associated with Arabic Islamic culture. One of these is the Karko, who are now “Arabized.”

Obstacles

One of the things that is unique about the Sudanese Arabs is they don't have any Christian tradition like Arabs do further east and north. Not only that, but there is often armed conflict between Christianized and Islamized people in Sudan. For this reaso

How reach

Sudanese Christ followers who want both physical and spiritual peace to reach their land can actively seek meetings with members of the Sudanese Muslim community.

Pray for p g

Pray for workers, filled with the love of the Holy Spirit, to go to the Arabized Kadaru people. Pray for the Arabized Kadaru people to crave pure spiritual milk and find it in the word of God. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Arabized Kadaru people.

Summary

For centuries, the area of the Nuba Mountains, located in Sudan's South Kordofan Province was also a refuge for various people fleeing oppressive governments and slave traders. This created a situation where there are nearly 100 different dialects. One of these dialects is Katla, spoken by a people of that same name. Although the people are collectively referred to as "Nuba," the term is used as a regional designation. Because most of the Nuba tribes initially fled to the mountains for refuge, they generally dislike and mistrust outsiders. Katla elders make decisions for the entire group.

Obstacles

Village communities are organized by clans or extended family sections. The authority of the village is left in the hands of clan elders. Each community usually has a large, stone mosque. Most villages also have Islamic schools where boys and girls study the Koran. Thus, children are indoctrinated with the ways of Islam early in life. It will be difficult to share the gospel.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Holy Spirit to give Katla elders and clan leaders dreams of Jesus as King of kings. Pray for an enormous harvest for the Katla, and that they will understand God's provision for their needs. Pray for a Holy Spirit-directed movement to Christ among the Katla, leading them to God's abundant blessings.

Summary

The Lafofa people live in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. Though this people group speaks its own language of Lafofa, many of them now speak Arabic to match neighboring communities within Sudan. Similar to other people groups, the Lafofa farm and herd livestock as their primary source of income.

Obstacles

The primary religion practiced by the Lafofa is Islam, a monotheistic religion founded on observing the Quran and the messages revealed to the Prophet Mohammad. The Lafofa adhere to following the expectations of the Sunni Branch of Islam, which the majority of Muslims globally follow. Muslims in Sudan are taught at a young age that their religion holds the perfect law and the ways through which Allah wants them to live. Muslims believe that Christians adhere to following a corrupted holy book that is not as accurate as the Koran.

Pray for p g

Pray for a spiritual hunger to arise among the Lafofa people, leading them to look to Jesus Christ for spiritual answers. Pray that the believers among the Lafofas will be both salt and light to their neighbors, receiving the truth, as they joyfully share his ways with everyone. Pray additionally that continuing discipleship may occur so that the Lafofa people can effectively spread the gospel.

Summary

Farming and livestock production are important economic activities for the Maba, and markets are widespread places of trade. Although the women help the men work in the fields, the men alone are responsible for clearing the land and doing other heavy work. The men also tend the animals, trade at the local markets, and make important family decisions. The women are responsible for milking the animals, brewing beer from millet, and preparing a daily millet-based porridge. They also keep up with the domestic duties such as caring for the children. Some of the Maba live in large towns. There, they live in huts that are clustered tightly together. Many others live in compact rural villages.

Obstacles

Sudan is a country where there have been violent conflicts between Christians and Muslims for decades. The Muslim Maba people are not likely to listen to Christ followers.

How reach

There are very few Christian resources in the Maba language, but Christ followers can take them gospel recordings and audio recordings.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to bless the Maba in practical ways and that they will understand he loves them and wants them to become part of his family. Pray for the Lord to thrust out workers into the Maba harvest. Pray for Maba leaders to open the door for Christ to bless their families and communities. Pray for a powerful movement to Christ among the Maba this decade.

Summary

The name Swahili literally means "coast," and is the name given to several people groups that share a common culture (Uswahili), language (Kiswahili), and religion (Islam). Today, the Swahili are scattered along Eastern Africa and the Persian Gulf, from Saudi Arabia to Zambia. A smaller number have migrated inland to Sudan.

Obstacles

Prosperous, prestigious people like the Swahilis are far less likely to look for new spiritual answers than those who are poor.

How reach

Perhaps businessmen from other parts of Africa can share Christ with the Swahili people.

Pray for church

Pray that the Holy Spirit will show the Swahili people in Sudan the way to the cross.

Pray for p g

Ask God to raise up prayer teams to break up the soil through worship and intercession. Pray for spiritual hunger.

Summary

The Sagolle group is a large tribe farming and raising livestock in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. Originally, they were thought to be a clan of the Korongo tribe; the survey team confirmed with the tribal paramount chief and elders that they are not a clan, but a tribe. They cultivate sorghum and corn. The Sagolle identify themselves as Muslims, but they retain traditional religious practices, as well. They have no known schools or healthcare facilities.

Obstacles

Imagine living among people with no Christians. None of your neighbors is Christian. How will you hear of Christ's saving grace? The significant remoteness of the Sagolle impacts their ability to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Sagolle to seek and find the only Savior, Jesus Christ. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give them the desire to seek the truth regardless of the cost. Pray for compassionate and dedicated workers to serve among the Sagolle. Pray for Sagolle leaders to have dreams of the risen Christ and share those dreams with others.

Summary

For many centuries, the Nuba Mountains served as a refuge for peoples fleeing oppressive governments and slave traders. Perhaps this best explains why there is such a variety of Nuba groups and languages. Nuba peoples like the Ngile are industrious farmers, and their livelihood is based primarily on agriculture. Sorghum, the staple crop, can either be sold or made into beer. They also grow millet, sesame, peanuts, and tobacco for personal consumption. The Ngile also gather forest products and sell them as some of the region's exports.

Obstacles

Because the Nuba tribes originally fled to the mountains for refuge, they generally dislike and distrust outsiders. Therefore, anyone reaching out to the Ngile people is likely to face suspicion.

How reach

Though there is a lot to be done among the tribes who live in the Nuba Mountains, the gospel is in that region.

Pray for p g

Pray for Ngile believers to have hearts that are ready and willing to take the name of Jesus to Muslims throughout their region. Pray for the Ngile people to have hearts that are open to the abundant blessings of Jesus Christ. Pray for their families to prosper financially and spiritually as they experience a relationship with Jesus Christ. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Ngile that will spread joy, peace and salvation to other peoples in East Africa.

Summary

The Lamira are a small tribe in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They grow their own corn, sorghum, and millet. They raise cattle, sheep, and goats, and consume the meat and milk of the livestock. They have no known schools or healthcare facilities. The Lamira are Sunni Muslims and follow the teachings of the Koran and tribal beliefs. The primary language spoken by the Lamira is Sudanese Arabic. The Lamira place a strong importance on family and hold to traditional values. Households tend to be multigenerational.

Obstacles

Roads are almost non-existent in this area, and transportation of goods and services is a challenge, especially in the rainy season. How can Christ's ambassadors get to them? It will take those who are willing to live in discomfort to reach these Muslims.

Pray for p g

Pray for their needs to be met, and for them to be thankful to the Lord for his goodness and love. Pray for Lamira disciples to encourage many more of their people to become disciples of Jesus Christ. Pray for compassionate and dedicated workers to desire to serve the Lamira. Pray for the Holy Spirit to open the hearts of the Lamira to accept the message and teachings of Jesus Christ.

Summary

Sometimes a tribe is defined by its language. That is true of the Jomang, AKA, Talodi in Sudan. Most speak Sudanese Arabic, so this language might not last for more than two more generations. They live in southern Sudan where there is hostility between Muslim and Christian tribes.

Obstacles

Muslims like the Jomang speakers are often at odds with the Christianized peoples in Sudan and South Sudan. Christians are viewed as enemies, mainly because of conflict over land rights and political issues. How will people like the Jomang be willing to hear the gospel, since they view Christians as enemies?

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to make a way for the Jomang to hear and respond to Jesus Christ with their hearts and their heads. Pray that they will embrace Jesus Christ no matter the cost. Pray that the Lord will show himself powerful and loving to the Jomang. Pray for the Holy Spirit to give Jomang teachable and understanding hearts. Pray for Arabic gospel materials to become easily available to every Jomang family. Pray for Jomang family leaders to have dreams and visions of the risen, victorious Christ.

Summary

The Mirisia Zuruk live in ten main villages in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They speak Sudanese Arabic. Some remain nomadic, but these people are being forced to settle. They farm sorghum, corn, beans, and ground nuts. They also raise cattle, sheep, and goats. The Mirisia Zuruk have one primary school, which is not enough for their needs. Their livestock, which is their livelihood, is suffering from a lack of food and water. They are having trouble adjusting to sedentary lives.

Obstacles

The Mirisia Zuruk are Muslim. They believe in Allah for salvation, but in their daily lives, they put their faith in the spirit world. They do not understand the centrality of Christ. It would be a strange notion to them.

Pray for p g

Pray for an abundant blessing of Mirisia Zuruk families and communities as they are drawn to embrace Jesus Christ. Pray for a powerful awakening that draws their hearts to Christ, and that will enrich the Mirisia Zuruk community. Pray for spiritual openness to Jesus Christ, unhindered by traditional spiritual beliefs that may stand in the way of the living faith in Jesus.

Summary

The Tochos have extended families, and the elders arrange marriages. A Tocho man might have multiple wives, but only if he is wealthy. Children with the same parents grow up together, being raised by their mother in their younger years. Respected elders resolve family disputes. They have their own language (Tocho), but most also speak Sudanese Arabic, the local trade language. Tochos consume dairy products from their cattle and legumes such as fava beans. They also forage for wild roots, fruits, and berries. Aradeab is one of their favorite beverages. It comes from the baobab fruit. When the Tocho have social gatherings, they drink spiced tea and coffee.

Obstacles

The vast majority of Tochos are Muslim, and they live in a part of the world where there is violent strife between Christians and Muslims, so any Tocho person who would consider following Christ would likely be considered a traitor to his tribe.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to give the Tocho the spiritual hunger to embrace Christ, no matter the cost. Pray for the Lord to send laborers to the Tocho community. Pray for peaceful relations between Muslims and Christians in Sudan and South Sudan.

Summary

The Kuwala live in seven main villages in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They cultivate sorghum, corn, and beans, while also raising cattle, sheep, and goats. The Kuwala have two primary schools and a secondary school, but their villages are otherwise impoverished from decades of regional war. The Kuwala primarily speak Sudanese Arabic. Their religion is Sunni Islam, following the teachings of the Koran.

Obstacles

As folk Muslims, the Kuwala believe that Jesus is only a prophet, not the only way to salvation. They seek daily benefits from the spirit world, not understanding that it is God who can provide for all their needs.

Pray for p g

Pray for a movement of the Holy Spirit to help the Kuwala believe in Jesus Christ. Pray for peace in the Kuwala homeland. Pray for an abundant blessing of Kuwala families and communities as they embrace Jesus Christ, the Lord of lords. Pray for spiritual openness to Jesus Christ, which false teachers cannot hinder.

Summary

The Fanda live in nine villages in Dilling County, located in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They speak Nding and Sudanese Arabic. They cultivate sorghum and corn and raise cattle, sheep, and goats. During and after the rainy season, the Fanda have special access to fresh cow's milk, which they drink hot, fresh off charcoal fires. They have no known schools or health facilities.

Obstacles

The Fanda are entirely Muslim. Few, if any, know a Christian in this country where Christians are considered enemies.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to send dreams and visions of the Lord to Fanda family leaders. Pray for loving workers to be thrust out into each of the three Fanda villages. Pray that soon there will come a day when Fanda Christians will disciple others. Pray for them to encounter Christians who demonstrate the love and mercy of the Lord in practical ways.

Summary

The Antiti live in 10 large villages in the Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They speak Sudanese Arabic. They grow sorghum, sesame, corn, and peanuts. They also raise cattle, sheep, and goats for meat and milk. The Antiti are Muslim. They have two primary schools but no secondary schools.

Obstacles

If you had been taught by those who believe that the Koran is 100 percent accurate and the Bible is corrupted, would you be likely to read the Bible? Believing in the gospel of Jesus Christ is difficult when they have been taught to believe that the Koran is foolproof and accurate.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Holy Spirit to instill in the Antiti the desire to seek the truth of the one true Savior, Jesus Christ, regardless of the cost. Pray for compassionate and dedicated workers to serve the Antiti. Pray for Antiti leaders to have dreams of the risen Christ and to share those dreams with others. Pray that soon Antitis will find their way to the cross and spread Christ's fame to other Muslims throughout Sudan.

Summary

Traditionally, the Baggara tribes have raised cattle and are somewhat nomadic. Today many have become more settled than before. They inhabit the portion of Africa's Sahel mainly between Lake Chad and southern Kordofan. Baggara tribes have ancestry from the Juhaina Arab tribes who migrated directly from the Arabian peninsula or from other parts of north Africa. Various Baggara tribes have been deeply involved with recent conflicts in Sudan and Chad. The common language of different Baggara groups is known to academics by various names, such as Chadian Arabic, taken from the regions where the language is spoken. For much of the 20th century, this language was known to academics as "Shuwa Arabic".

Obstacles

The Baggara tribes have been Muslim for many generations, and remain strongly committed to their religion and their way of life.

How reach

Sustained prayer is greatly needed for all of the tribes of Sudan. Little can be accomplished without sustained prayer.

Pray for church

It is unlikely there is a single follower of Jesus today among this small Baggara tribe. Few of these people have had an opportunity to hear who Jesus truly is, deity, the Son of God. If there are any believers they need our prayers.

Pray for p g

Please pray for growing spiritual hunger among the Baggara tribes, hunger to know the living God and to experience his power and righteousness in their daily lives. Pray they will be given faith to believe that Jesus is deity, and that he died and rose again.

Summary

The Kujriya live in 10 villages in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They are farmers and also raise livestock. On their farms, they cultivate sorghum and corn. There are no known schools or healthcare facilities in their villages. The Kujriya speak Sudanese Arabic. The primary religion practiced is Sunni Islam, following the teachings of the Koran.

Obstacles

There may be no Christ followers among the Kujriya. There are likely no Christians among their neighbors, either. How will they hear without a preacher? The remoteness of their villages and their dedication to the Islamic religion present significant obstacles.

Pray for p g

Pray for the Lord to send compassionate and dedicated workers to the Kujriya. Pray for the Lord to give the Kujriya family leaders dreams of the holy and risen Christ, and that they will share their dreams with many others. Pray that there will soon come a day when Kujriya will accept Jesus Christ as their savior and encourage others in their tribe to accept the teachings of the gospel. Pray for Christians to establish schools for the Kujriya, and that this will help encourage them to follow Christ.

Summary

Teda culture has little respect for those who do agricultural work. Their property system favors mobility and military strength over securing land and farming it. Because of their lack of interest in farming, most of the Teda are herdsmen. About one third are nomads; the rest are semi-nomadic. Livestock is the main source of wealth in Teda society. Camels and goats are their most common livestock. The oldest man in a Teda family has authority until his death. Marriages involve the payment of a substantial bride-price, which consists of livestock. Polygamy (having more than one spouse) is permitted, but rarely practiced. Most Teda communities have only a few hundred inhabitants. Rough sports and violence are a regular part of life among the Teda. Although the man is usually the family leader, the wife may beat him if he challenges her authority in certain matters. Women usually carry daggers, and the men do not interfere in a fight between two women.

Obstacles

It is very difficult to reach out to people who are nomadic. Anyone who wants to reach the Teda people will need to be willing to move with them. They will also need to be tough enough to endure the violent lifestyle without getting caught in the middle. This is especially true for the Teda people who live in war-torn Sudan.

How reach

The Teda people live in places where life is cheap, and there is no gospel witness. Those who want to see them reached for Christ will need to regularly pray for them until there is a change of heart in this violence-prone community.

Pray for church

There are no followers of Christ among the Teda people in Sudan, so pray for a miracle. God can reach them and give them the gift of faith even without believers living nearby.

Pray for p g

Ask the Lord to raise up additional workers to join the few who are already working among the Teda people. Ask the Holy Spirit to grant wisdom and favor to mission agencies focusing on the Teda. Ask God to raise up an army of prayer warriors who will stand in the gap for the Teda. Pray that strong local churches will be raised up among the Teda that will penetrate their communities in Sudan, Chad, and Libya.

Summary

The Kudur group lives in nine rural villages, farming and raising livestock in the remote Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, Sudan. They are also called Fanda. They cultivate sorghum and corn for a living. The Kudur are Muslim; they follow the teachings of the Koran. Their primary language is Sudanese Arabic. The Kudur lack schools and health care facilities.

Obstacles

The Kudur are Muslim, following the teachings of the Koran. All they know is the Islamic religion and traditions. They most likely view Christians as those who oppose their people. How likely are the Kudur to give Jesus the chance to change their lives under those circumstances?

Pray for p g

Pray for the Holy Spirit to move mightily among the Kudur. Pray for compassionate workers to serve among them.

Summary

Most of the Bokoruge are farmers, and their economy is primarily based on grain production. Their staple crops include millet, sorghum, and corn. From the forests they gather other foods such as cereals, grasses, berries, honey, and wild fruits and they also hunt for wild meat. The homes in Bokoruge villages are usually round and have cone-shaped roofs. Town homes are generally rectangular in shape, with mud-brick walls and flat roofs. Boys and girls of the villages become members of social groups and work groups. They perform community chores such as keeping the villages clean and organizing village dances.

Obstacles

There is much animosity between the Muslim and Christian communities in Sudan. It will be difficult for this Muslim people to embrace to the gospel.

How reach

Agricultural experts can help the Bokoruge achieve greater harvests while telling stories of the risen Christ.

Pray for p g

Pray for abundant rain and a huge harvest for the Bokoruge people as a testimony of the Lord's love and kindness. Pray that the Lord will thrust out workers to the Bokoruge people in Sudan and Chad. Pray for Bokoruge leaders to have a thirst for the living water that only Jesus can provide. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Bokoruge that cannot be stopped by any effort.

Summary

Between 1987 and 2002, the Nuba Mountain region in northern Sudan, where the Tima live, was a battle zone in the second Sudanese civil war, and the area was continually devastated. Due to wars, instability, and the isolation of the region, research has rarely been conducted and has only been possible within brief periods. During the past 50 years, the Tima have undergone many cultural, religious, social, and political changes. Many parts of Tima society are changing, such as its language, dances, songs, games, and religious beliefs. Islam has largely replaced their traditional religion.

Obstacles

The Nuba Mountain area, where the Tima live, is not easy for outsiders to enter. Additionally, the Tima language lacks scripture and any other Christian resources.

Pray for p g

Pray for peace with South Sudan, and for all tribes and peoples to gain an interest in knowing and following Jesus Christ. Pray for the entire Nuba Mountain region to be stable and safe, and for the tribes in the area to prosper. Pray for the Tima to hear from the Holy Spirit and be drawn to Jesus Christ, the only Savior.

Summary

The Fongoro people in Sudan are also called Gelege and Kole. Since the 18th century, they have been pushed into a remote, desolate area by the expansion of Arab and Fur peoples. At this point, the Fongoro speakers are being assimilated with the Fur peoples. Some who speak this language are hunter-gatherers. Others are fishermen who catch and dry fish for food. Some of them farm sorghum. Their land has poor soil, there is not enough water, and they suffer from the tsetse fly.

Obstacles

The Fongoro live in a part of Africa where few missionaries would dare live.

How reach

The Fongoro people need the chance to earn a living. Farming, hunting, and fishing are not enough for them to get enough to eat. They especially need help from outsiders who can help them eradicate the tsetse fly. Christ followers with the right background can help them with these practical needs.

Pray for p g

Pray for God to shower his abundant mercy on these suffering people. Pray for the Fongoro speakers to find a way to thrive economically and spiritually. Pray for them to have the chance to hear and respond to the gospel. Pray for a disciple making movement to emerge among Fongoro speakers.

Summary

The Tulishi are one of the Nuba Mountain peoples, often called “Nuba” because of their location. They are hard-working farmers, and their livelihood is based primarily on agriculture. Sorghum, their staple crop, can either be sold or made into beer. They grow millet, sesame, peanuts, and tobacco for personal consumption. They also gather forest products and sell them as some of the region's exports. Even the women have small vegetable gardens in which they raise vegetables such as onions, okra, beans, and maize. The Tulishi also keep cattle, sheep, goats, and chickens. Millet porridge is a main part of the Tulishi diet. They serve it with a sauce made from meat, okra, or kidney beans. Dura, a thin, coarse bread, was introduced to the area by the neighboring Arab groups. Today, it has become one of their staple foods.

Obstacles

Because most of the Nuba tribes originally fled to the mountains for refuge, they generally dislike and distrust outsiders. Anyone who comes to them with the gospel will be held under a cloud of suspicion.

How reach

Christ followers can take culturally appropriate music and stories to them. As story tellers, they can also be gospel bearers.

Pray for p g

Pray for an enormous harvest for the Tulishi people, and that they will understand it as God's provision for their needs. Pray for spiritual hunger that will lead Tulishi leaders to seek and find the only Savior. Pray for the Lord to thrust out steadfast workers to the Tulishi and other peoples of the Nuba Mountains. Pray that the few Tulishi believers will live as salt and light to their families and communities. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Tulishi people, leading them to God's abundant blessings.

Summary

The Gule are a sub-group of the Shilluk, a tribe of South Sudan. The original homeland of the Shilluk was near Rumbek, but as their population and herds increased, they migrated northward. By the late 1400 's, they had reached their new location along the banks of the White Nile River. Throughout the 1800 's, the Shilluk and other tribes in southern Sudan were raided for slaves and ivory. Slave stations were established in many territories, but the Shilluk were well organized and able to deter many of the raiders. The Shilluk, including the Gule, are primarily herdsmen. The Gule possess a unique style of dress and tribal markings that set them apart from neighboring groups. Very little clothing is worn by either males or females. In addition, six of the lower teeth are removed at a young age. The Gule are primarily Sunni Muslims, but most of the other Shilluk groups follow traditional animistic beliefs.

Access to this small tribe is difficult, and outsiders are generally not welcome.

How reach

The Shilluk tribe of South Sudan has many Christians. Perhaps the Lord will give these Christians a desire to take the good news about Jesus to the small Gule tribe in Sudan. But there will be serious obstacles to this. It will require perseverance.

Pray for church

It is unlikely any of the Gule tribe know hardly anything about Jesus. Pray the Lord will soon give these people an interest in Jesus, or Isa, as he is known in the Koran.

Pray for p g

Pray for adequate rainfall and good crops for the Gule tribe, and pray for educational opportunities for the children.

Summary

The Baygos are one of the large Daju peoples of Sudan. They had their own language, Baygo, but it is being replaces by Sudanese Arabic. They are being Arabized, and there is a good possibility that their culture will be absorbed by the more powerful Arabs in the decades ahead.

Obstacles

The primary religion practiced by the Baygo people is Islam, a monotheistic religion built around the teachings of the Koran and of the prophet Mohammad. Muslims are taught at a young age that their religion holds the perfect law, and the ways that Allah wants us to live. Christians, by contrast, have a corrupted holy book that is not as accurate as the Koran.

How reach

It will take faithful prayer to break through to the Baygo people. Then some people who love the Lord more than their lives will have to go to them with the gospel.

Pray for church

There are no followers of Christ among the Baygo people, so pray that this will be the year when the Holy Spirits calls many of them to the Savior of all peoples.

Pray for p g

Pray for a spiritual breakthrough among the Baygo and other Daju peoples in Sudan that will lead to a disciple-making movement.

Summary

The Nuba people claim to be the original inhabitants of the Nuba Mountains in Sudan. For centuries this area was also a refuge for various people fleeing oppressive governments and slave traders, creating a situation where there are nearly 100 different dialects. One of these is Krongo, spoken by the Krongo people. Millet porridge is a main part of the Krongo diet. They serve it with a sauce made from meat, okra or kidney beans.

Obstacles

The Krongo people are Muslim and allow Islamic law to shape their daily lives. The laws of Islam bind the Nuba peoples together in education, dress, diet, family life and spiritual life. They are not open to spiritual change.

How reach

Jesus said, “Blessed be the peacemakers.” Christ followers can help bring peace in the Nuba Mountains by intervening in tribal disputes.

Pray for p g

Pray for an enormous harvest for the Krongo people, and that they will understand it as God's provision for their needs. Pray for spiritual hunger that will lead Krongo leaders to seek and find the only Savior. Pray for the Lord to thrust out steadfast workers to the Krongo and other peoples of the Nuba Mountains. Pray for a Holy Spirit directed movement to Christ among the Krongo people, leading them to God's abundant blessings.
