Ministry Obstacles
Bhutan is not as closed to the outside world as it once was, but access is still limited. But the larger obstacle is the mindset of the prevailing religion.

Outreach Ideas
Sustained prayer is needed to prepare the hearts of the people of Bhutan to understand the message of Christ, and to believe.

Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray for the followers of Jesus among the Bhotia community, that their faith in Christ will be strengthened by regular fellowship together. Pray for an accurate understanding of the grace offered by Christ, and that they will desire to be obedient to Christ's teachings.

Pray for the entire people group
Pray for the Bhotia to escape the bondage of their current religion. Pray for hunger to find a solution to their sin problem.

Scripture Focus
"Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples. For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised." 1 Chronicles 16:24-25
