Pray for the Gujar (Hindu traditions)

Pronunciation: GOO-jar  

Gujar are comprised of three very closely related groups that are known collectively as the Gujar Rajasthani. Gujar castes are broadly divided along religious and geographic lines into two groups: the Muslim Gujar and the Hindu Gujar. Gujar nomads who live in the state of Jammu and Kashmir are often cheated by the middlemen, who take their agricultural products to the city markets and sell them as their own. Gujar Muslims are seasonal nomads who live in windowless, one-room houses during sedentary growing seasons, whereas the Hindus are settled farmers who live in the same place all year.

Ministry Obstacles: Gujar are primarily concerned with improving their economic situation. They typically neglect their spiritual lives or settle for traditional Hindu rituals.

Scripture Focus: "Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up; God is our salvation. Selah"
- Psalm 68:19

Prayer Focus: May today’s people group allow the Lord to carry them in His powerful arms. Pray for the Lord to prepare loving and tenacious servants to go to Gujar to share Christ. Pray for a movement to Christ that would spread throughout South Asia. Pray that God will encourage the small number of Gujar believers and give them a vision to reach their own people.
