The Koria are a Scheduled Tribe, which means they have low status. They live in Rajasthan and speak Hindi as a trade language. Their heart language is different.
Most are farmers who grow rice and maize. They also hunt wild game, fish and gather food from the forest.
They Koria people have their own music, folk dances and art.
These Hindus have their own religious practices which are an attempt to have a good harvest.
They need the Holy Spirit to open their eyes so they can see Jesus as he is.
Pray for many from this unreached people group to understand both God’s judgment and his majestic glory.
Pray for loving workers to go to the Koria people, and for their hearts to be ready to receive their savior.
Pray for a chain reaction of families reaching families that result in thousands of new disciples who share their faith with others.
Pray for grace and truth expanding into their entire society as all believers learn to love others.
