Awlad Hassan in Sudan
OW-lahd hah-SAHN
There are many Arab groups and Arabized tribes in Sudan, but one of them stands out. It is the Awlad Hassan. Their ancestors were Yemeni merchants who controlled the desert trade routes hundreds of years ago. Later the Awlad Hassan imposed themselves on the local Berbers in North Africa. The Awlad Hassan live as successful businessmen and merchants in Sudan. They are deeply engaged in the commercial activities of the cities in Sudan.
Ministry Obstacles
The Awlad Hassan have deep roots in the Islamic religion. At this point, they would not consider a different way of viewing the world, nor would they turn away from the religion of their ancestors.
Scripture Focus
"Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus." Revelation 14:12
Scripture Prayer
Pray that the Lord grants endurance to the believers in this people group and that they are faithful to share the good news.
Prayer Focus
Pray for a spiritual hunger and thirst among the Awlad Hassan that will lead them to find the savior no matter what the cost.
Pray for Holy Spirit directed workers to go to them with the gospel.
Pray for a movement to Christ to sweep through all Awlad Hassan families.
Pray for the end of violence in Sudan.
