Xiaoliangshan Nosu in China

Xiaoliangshan Nosu in China

pronounced: Shaow-leung-shan Nor-soo

Prior to 1949 the Xiaoliangshan Nosu practiced a system of slavery. "Even today, Xiaoliangshan Nosu society is a very complex system of castes, tribes and clans. In 1957 80% of the Nuo were slave owners. The remnants of these class tensions are still an undercurrent in Nosu society today." There are only a few Xiaoliangshan Nosu believers scattered over a widespread area.

Pray for the Lord to multiply the reception and influence of His Word among the Xiaoliangshan Nosu people, leading them to love Him with their whole being.
