Pulaar Fulani in Senegal


Pulaar Fulani in Senegal

Most Pulaar Fulani call Senegal home. As rural people, they excel at farming, fishing and animal husbandry. They divide society into four main social classes, each with twelve castes. The Pulaar proudly acknowledge themselves as the first black Africans to convert to Islam although spiritism and magic play a significant role in daily life. They also believe themselves to be defenders of the Muslim faith. Islamic tradition, as well as the climate, influences clothing styles and other lifestyles.

Ministry Obstacles

These people have a strong commitment to their current faith and have not been open to the gospel.

Outreach Ideas

Stories from Scripture, coupled with gospel films and recordings, would likely communicate effectively to the Pulaar, who remain mostly an oral culture. There is a need for sustained prayer for the Pulaar.

Scripture Focus

"For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ."  2 Corinthians 10:3-5

Scripture Prayer

Pray for the Holy Spirit to give new believers among today’s people group victory their spiritual battles.

Prayer Focus

Pray for the few hundred Pulaar Christian believers and for others who will eventually find Christ. Pray also for discipling that leads to maturity for these believers and for rapid multiplication of home groups that leads to a strong movement to Christ. Pray for these people to increasingly understand that Jesus is deity, the Son of God. Pray they would desire to know him and follow him. Pray they would understand that salvation is found in no one else.
