The Kurmi Mahato people live in West Bengal, Odisha and Bihar. They speak Oriya, Bengali and Hindi.
The Kurmi Mahato work in agriculture and are generally well educated. They like dancing. Marriages are arranged by family leaders. They allow for divorce and remarriage. On the death of the father, sons inherit the property with the oldest son taking charge of the family.
Almost everyone in this community is a Hindu. As Hindus they worship whatever god they believe will offer them protection and prosperity.
The Kurmi Mahato people need the eternal blessings of Jesus Christ.
Pray that Indian believers will help them to begin an unstoppable movement to Christ. Pray for spiritual discernment and hunger. Pray for their leaders to open the door to their communities seeking and finding Jesus Christ.
