E in China
erh

While this group call themselves "E", the Chinese call them Wuse, a derogatory name meaning "five colors." The E celebrate the traditional Chinese festivals, the most important of which are the Spring Festival and the Chinese New Year. The north-central part of Guangxi Province has long been a crossroads for various ethnic groups, including the E. Interaction between Han Chinese and minority groups has led to the intermixing of ethnic groups, including the Mulao, Maonan, and Zhuang. Although they have been classified as part of the large Zhuang nationality, the E cannot speak the Zhuang language. These groups have many Chinese customs and linguistic influences.

Ministry Obstacles
There are no known Christian fellowships or believers among the 19 E villages in northern Guangxi. The E still await the arrival of the gospel for the first time. They will have to hear the gospel from someone outside their community.

Scripture Focus
"Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you."  Psalm 89:14

Scripture Prayer
Pray that today’s people group will seek and find His righteousness and justice. Pray that they will be thankful for His unfailing love.

Prayer Focus
Pray for the Lord to intervene in the daily lives of their families, which will result in many of the E learning about the Lord. Pray for their hearts to be drawn to the Lord of lords. Ask God for loving workers to serve among the E, especially through a church planting movement. Pray these churches will spread in their communities and throughout Guangxi Province.
