Eastern Maninka in Guinea

The Eastern Maninka are the second largest people group in Guinea. They are the descendants of the Mande of the once-great Mali Empire. The empire amassed a fortune taxing the trade of gold and ivory in the region. Before becoming a part of the empire, the Mande were credited with revolutionizing agriculture in the area. They discovered the use of millet, one of the most important grains in the West African diet today.

Ministry Obstacles

Almost no Eastern Maninka have taken the step to follow Christ, partly because they think doing so will alienate them from their families and friends.

Scripture Focus

"I know your works. Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name." Revelation 3:8

Scripture Prayer

Pray for a wide-open door for the gospel to penetrate the culture of this people group.

Prayer Focus

Ask the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers to the Eastern Maninka. Ask the Holy Spirit to grant wisdom and favor to mission agencies focusing on the Maninka. Ask the Lord to bring forth a strong and growing Maninka church. Pray for the effectiveness of the JESUS Film among the Maninka. Pray for the few believers among the Eastern Maninka to take their role as Christ’s ambassadors seriously.
