The Nachhiring people are also called the "Nachiring Khas" or "Nachiring. They are an ethnic group in Nepal with their own language which is part of the Tibeto-Burman branch of languages.
They have always been farmers who grow rice and raise livestock, specifically chickens, goats and buffalo.

Pray for the Nachhiring culture to be renewed and enhanced by a work of the Holy Spirit and shaped into a God-centered and God-honoring mold.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to move among their family and community leaders to seek his face and enjoy his blessings.
Pray for the Lord to thrust out workers who will be compelled to nurture a disciple making movement among the Nachhiring people.
Pray that soon the Nachhiring people will have faith that will lead them to live honorable lives that will draw others to the savior.
