The Alehemir people group live in the Nuba Mountains in the state of South Kordofan, in Sudan.
They are rural farmers growing sorghum and corn and raising cattle, sheep and goats. They practice a special type of dancing and wrestling.
All of the Alehemir people identify as Muslims.
Services among the Alehemir are quite limited with water collected from boreholes. They have no schools or health care facilities.
Pray for their needs to be met by God’s provisions, and for them to be grateful to him.
Pray for the Lord to give Alehemir family leaders dreams and visions of the righteous Lord and for them to share their experience with others.
Pray for loving and dedicated workers to go to the Alehemir people.
Pray for disciples to make many more disciples.
Scripture Prayers for the Alehemir in Sudan.
