Mangrik in India
MAHNG-grik

The Mangrik have traditionally been farmers. Muslim butchers ensure a supply of mutton to the Mangrik since the latter refrain from killing animals. They have attained a high level of literacy, and some have even attented universities in Jammu and Kashmir.

Ministry Obstacles
It may be that the Mangrik people have formed an incorrect view of what Christians believe, based upon observation of nominal Christians in their region.

Outreach Ideas
Even though the Mangrik people may have a fairly high literacy rate, using oral means of communicating the gospel may be the best approach. Films, recordings and stories from Scripture will likely have a favorable result if their hearts are open.

Scripture Focus
"Good and upright is the LORD; therefore he instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in what is right, and teaches the humble his way."  Psalm 25:8-9

Scripture Prayer
Pray for many from today’s people group to have the humility to learn from the Lord and follow His ways.

Prayer Focus
There is no indication that any from the Mangrik community know Christ as Savior. Pray for those that will soon come to know and follow him. Pray they would have nothing to do with the deeds of darkness, living as children of light. Pray they would be zealous to know and follow Christ. Pray for the Lord to multiply the reception and influence of his Word among the Mangrik people, leading them to love him with their whole being. Pray for them to continue to be able to care for their families adequately. Pray for competent village-level leadership.
