 Unreached of the Day: Cia-Cia, South Butonese of Indonesia

Cia-Cia, South Butonese of Indonesia
The Cia-Cia people are found throughout the southern part of Buton island, generally in the more rural areas. They also inhabit the remote island of Batu Atas (south of Buton) as well as the eastern half of the island of Binongko in the Wakatobi island chain. The Cia-Cia make their living as farmers or fishermen, depending on where their village is located. Almost all Cia-Cia people have identified with Sufi Islam, but the Hindu and animistic traditions of their past are very active. According to their teachings, they practice meditation in order to receive visions from God, or to find hidden truths far beyond their own reasoning.

Ministry Obstacles
Scripture is not reported as available in the Cia-Cia language, but Gospel recordings are available.

Outreach Ideas
There are many evangelical Christians in Indonesia, in other tribes. Pray some of these will be given an interest in the Cia-Cia people, and will be obedient to help disciple the Christians already in this tribe.

Pray for the followers of Christ
Please pray the few Christians in the Cia-Cia tribe will be accurately taught the ways of Christ. They need teachers to help them.

Pray for the entire people group
Please pray this tribe will not be exploited by those who would take the minerals on their land from them.

Scripture Focus
"Thus it is written, that the Christ would suffer and rise again from the dead the third day, and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations." Luke 24:46-47
