Raddi in India
RAH-dee

The Raddi people are very family oriented; they prefer marriages between cousins. When the father dies, the oldest son takes charge of the family. The Raddi are mostly farmers, and they are vegetarians, which possibly indicates high status.

Ministry Obstacles
Hinduism is their religion, and they worship many gods and goddesses, none of which can benefit them. Turning to Christ would involve a supernatural encounter with the living Savior. Their community leaders need a "Saul of Tarsus conversion."

Outreach Ideas
They would best be led to Christ in a people movement involving entire families and communities. There are Bibles and Bible resources available to them in their language. They need evangelists to lead them to Jesus Christ.

Scripture Focus
"And he brought him outside and said, Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number them. Then he said to him, So shall your offspring be. And he believed the LORD, and he counted it to him as righteousness."  Genesis 15:5-6

Scripture Prayer
Pray that members of today’s people group will understand that they can become part of God’s holy family and experience His goodness.

Prayer Focus
Pray that the few believers among the Raddi people would be zealous for Christ and his kingdom. Pray for believers to be emboldened by the Holy Spirit to study the Word and be filled with a burning desire to share what they have learned with the Raddi people. Pray for an entire people movement to the only Savior, Jesus Christ.
