The Opo people of South Sudan and Ethiopia speak Opo.
We have little or no information about their lifestyle.
In Ethiopia they are mainly Christian, but their Christianity is blended with traditional African religion. They are far more reached in Ethiopia than they are in South Sudan.
The Opo people in Ethiopia need disciplers who will teach them the ways of Christ.
Pray for Opo disciplers who will make more disciples.
Pray for Opo leaders to put all their faith and hope in Jesus Christ rather than their traditional gods.
Pray for spiritual hunger that will lead many to reading the Bible and obeying it.
Scripture Prayers for the Opo in Ethiopia.
