Nosu, Yinuo in China

Nosu, Yinuo in China

pronounced: Yee-nuoh Nor-soo

The Yinuo Nosu took slaves and fought against the Chinese authorities and other Nosu groups for centuries, until they were disarmed and the slave system abolished by the Communists in the early 1950s. Still today, the Yinuo Nosu remain an aggressive and fierce people. The various branches of the Nosu have a detailed legend of a great flood.

Ministry Obstacles

Intimidating mountains, rugged terrain, and cultural and linguistic barriers have prevented the Gospel from spreading to the Yinuo Nosu.

Outreach Ideas

The flood legend in their culture can be used as a springboard to introduce them to Scripture.
