Khisa is an endangered language. Most likely no one will be speaking it in 100 years.
Khisa speakers live in Cote d 'Ivoire, and Burkina Faso, West Africa.
They lack medical care, potable water and electricity.
Khisa speakers are 100 Sunni Muslim, but their version of this religion is tainted by the use of traditional religion. Instead of depending on Allah, the god of Islam, they depend on local spirit-beings.
Khisa speakers desperately need to allow Jesus Christ into their lives so he can transform their communities and provide them with abundant life. They need disciplers to teach them the ways of the Master.
Pray for Khisa speakers to have safe, potable water in their homes and electricity.
Pray for open hearts that will respond to the only Savior, Jesus Christ.
Pray for a Disciple-Making Movement among the Khisa people.
Scripture Prayers for the Khisa, Komono in Burkina Faso.
