Arora (Hindu traditions) in India

Arora (Hindu traditions) in India

pronounced: ah-rohr-AH

There have been many times in history when the Arora people have been violently persecuted. Their people were slaughtered during both the Arab and the Moghul invasions of the Subcontinent. Arora Hindus and Sikhs had to flee with nothing but the clothes they were wearing during the bloody Partition of India in 1947. These are a resilient people, and they managed to become an influential community in India. They have a rigorous work ethic, and they insist on making sure that their children get a higher education. A recent Prime Minister of India, Manmohan Singh, is from the Arora community.

Pray for the Arora community to be given the gift of conviction of sin, that they will know their need for a Savior. Pray their hearts will be prepared.
