Sula in Indonesia
Most Sula live on the island of Sula, while some of them live on Mangole Island and in other parts of the Sula archipelago. The Sula language has developed into three dialects. The inhabitants of Sula make a living by hunting, fishing, and gathering sago, an edible starch from palm trees. Coconut trees are key to their economy; their primary export commodity is copra (coconut that has been dried to be processed into coconut oil). Other goods include products from the forest, spices, and saltwater fish.
Ministry Obstacles
There may be no Christ followers among the Sula, so they will need to hear the gospel from outsiders.
Scripture Focus
"And one called to another and said: Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!" Isaiah 6:3
