The Abai Sungai primarily reside in Sabah, Malaysia, and are concentrated mainly in one village. The primary occupation of this community is fishing.
Ministry Obstacles: There are no Christian materials in the Abai Sungai language, which means that they must hear the gospel message in someone else's language. That could make the gospel appear foreign to them.
Scripture Focus: "And all the people gathered as one man into the square before the Water Gate. And they told Ezra the scribe to bring the Book of the Law of Moses that the LORD had commanded Israel."
- Nehemiah 8:1
