In Taiwan, the younger generations of Hakka have largely assimilated into society with the rest of the island because of educational needs. Most Hakka communities don't have high school or colleges, so young Hakka must attend school in bigger cities where they usually end up settling. Older generations of Hakka still live predominately in rural communities outside of bigger cities. While most understand Mandarin, the national language in Taiwan, their heart language is really Hakka, so that's been a barrier in communicating the gospel to them. The Hakka have their own cuisine, architecture and dress.

Ethnic religions are closely tied in with ethnic identity. It’s difficult for anyone to “abandon” the ways of their ancestors, especially in a Chinese context.

There is already a sizable number of Hakka Christians who can reach out to the others in their communities and families.

Pray for hearts and minds that are open to adhering to the ways of Jesus Christ.
Pray for more Holy Spirit anointed believers to go to the Hakka in Taiwan.
Pray for leaders in the Taiwanese Hakka community to open the doors to hearing the gospel.
Pray this will be the decade where there is a powerful movement to Christ among the Hakka in Taiwan.
