Akhdam people mostly live in big city slums in fierce poverty and discrimination. Men work as street sweepers, women collect cans and bottles, and beg. There is little justice for them, nor education for their children.
Sometimes people who have known only severe poverty cannot see past their circumstances to a better future. There is no written Bible for them, although audio and visual resources are available in Arabic, a language that most of them understand.
Every kind of practical help, education, and resources are needed within this poverty stricken, unreached people group.
No believers are known to exist among the Akhdam people. * Pray for many to seek and find Almighty God.
* Pray for signs and wonders to confirm His Word.
* Pray for many Akhdam families to be blessed spiritually and financially as they allow Him to transform their community.
