Sarki of NepalThe traditional and primary occupation of the Sarki was shoe-making, but nowadays only a few among them are occupied as leather-workers or cobblers. They have family deities and a village deity. Some of their deities are Santala Devi, Maidevta and Dat Kali. Their witchdoctor is called lama or jhankri.Ministry ObstaclesThe worldview of the Sarki is very different than those of a monotheist, who believes in one God who is creator of all.Outreach IdeasThe Lord is building His church in Nepal. His Spirit is active. Pray that Christian workers will include the Sarki community in their outreach.Pray for the followers of ChristThere are some Christians among the Sarki community. Pray they become more than cultural Christians, instead becoming zealous disciples of Christ, trusting Him fully with their lives.Pray for the entire people groupPray the Sarki community will be dissatisfied with worshipping the gods of this age, but rather will hunger to know the creator God and His Son who came to give them life.Scripture Focus"And the gospel must first be preached to all the nations."
