Northern Uzbek in Uzbekistan


Northern Uzbek in Uzbekistan

The earliest ancestors of the Uzbeks, the Central Asian Turks, aided Genghis Khan in his conquest of Eastern Europe in the 1300s. Eventually, as unity between the Turks and Mongols faded, numerous warring kingdoms formed. It was from several of these kingdoms that the Uzbeks descended.

Ministry Obstacles

Proselytizing is forbidden in Uzbekistan. Families may feel their way of life threatened as relatives follow Jesus.

Outreach Ideas

Many younger Uzbeks are looking for a belief system to satisfy their deepest spiritual hunger. They need workers to sow God's Word into Uzbek families, healing and strengthening households with God's blessing.

Scripture Focus

"If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting,"  2 John 1:10

Scripture Prayer

Pray that todays’ people group rejects false teachers and false doctrine.

Prayer Focus

Pray that believers among the Uzbeks would be effective at engaging their families and communities in discussing Bible stories and experiencing God's blessing. Pray for the families and communities in this large people group to discover and embrace the truth about the prophet Isa (Jesus), about whom the Koran teaches, and whom the Bible reveals in fullness. Pray the Uzbeks would understand that Jesus desires to bless their families and neighborhoods.
