Ternate in Indonesia
Cloves, a special attraction for European colonial powers, have a long history on Ternate Island in Indonesia. In addition to cloves, Ternate cultivates nutmeg, coconuts, rice, and vegetables. Sailors from Ternate are famous for their competence and strength. Ternate villages are usually built along roads running parallel to the beach. Houses in rural areas are made from woven grass. The island's forest and ocean resources are abundant; however, the Ternates need more effective processes to foster benefits.
Ministry Obstacles
Most Ternate are Muslim. As followers of Islam, they believe they will be judged based on their knowledge of the Koran and their deeds during life on earth. Salvation by faith is a foreign idea to them.
Scripture Focus
"From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the LORD is to be praised! The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens!" Psalm 113:3-4
