 Unreached of the Day: Silti of Ethiopia

Silti of Ethiopia
A considerable number of Silt'e live in Addis Ababa, Adama and other cities and smaller urban centers of southern Ethiopia where they make a living as merchants or keepers of small shops. In the countryside, the Silt'e practice mixed farming and cultivate ensete. They inhabit today's Silt'e Zone which is part of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples Region. The name Silt'i is derived from the alleged ancestor Gen Silt'i. The modern ethnonym 'Silt'e was chosen in memory of this ancestor and as a reminiscence of the old Islamic sultanate of Hadiyya the Silte, whom people claim a historical relation to. Almost all Silt'e are Muslim.

Ministry Obstacles
Spiritual opposition can be expected when Jesus is presented to a person or to a people. Workers should be prepared for this by being constant in prayer.

Outreach Ideas
There are wonderful opportunities to show the love of Christ to the people of Silti especially in areas of health and education.

Pray for the followers of Christ
Followers of Christ among the Silti need prayer support. Pray they will live holy lives, honoring Christ in all they do.

Pray for the entire people group
There are wonderful opportunities to show the love of Christ to the people of Silti, especially in areas of health and education. There is a need for addressing poverty, human development, rural development, food security, capacity building, greater commercialization of agriculture, enhancement of private sector development, and industrial development.

Scripture Focus
"...that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord is God; there is no one else." 1 Kings 8:60
