Kalota are engaged yet unreached. They are part of the Rajasthani people cluster, which has traditionally been unwilling to accept Jesus' lordship on his terms. This people group is only found in India. Traditionally, Kalota were warriors who now live in Madhya Pradesh. The Kalota speak Gujarati and Hindi and read and write in Devanagari. They work mostly in agriculture. They only marry as adults. The Kalota allow for divorce and remarriage. Widows receive some of the property, which is unusual in Hindu culture. They have specific elders who settle disagreements for them. They are vegetarians who eat wheat and sometimes rice.

Ministry Obstacles: There are probably no Christ followers among the Kalota. Very few who speak the Hindi language have bowed their knees to Jesus Christ. There is a high number of atrocities reported in the area, presenting danger to missionaries who would attempt to enter this community with the gospel.

Scripture Focus: "The princes of the peoples gather as the people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God; he is highly exalted!"
- Psalm 47:9

Prayer Focus: Pray that the Lord will find honor and worship from today’s people group. May they understand that they belong to Him. Pray that Indian believers will help them to begin their own movement to Christ. Pray that gospel materials will be easily available to them. Pray for faithful intercessors and workers to go to the Kalota. Pray for spiritual openness when they hear of the claims of Christ. Pray for the physical and spiritual safety of the evangelism teams.
