Western Niger Fulani

The Fulani are the largest nomadic people group in the world. One of the tribes or sub-groups of this large people group is the Fulani of Western Niger. There are an estimated 400,000 Western Fulani and, out of this number, approximately 50 are Christians. Worship services and chronological Bible “storying” are both underway, but no churches have yet been planted among this people group.

Current prayer requests for the Western Niger Fulani:
 
1)  Fulfulde programming continues to go out across the land of the Western Niger Fulani.  Recently a new station near a large Fulani population agreed to broadcast the audio version of the Jesus film on their station.  Pray for the Fulani who will hear this amazing story.  Pray for them to accept this Truth and to have the courage to make it a part of their lives.  Pray for continued success in getting even more Fulani Christian programs on the radio so that even more Fulani can hear.
 
2)  Recently a Western Fulani man from a village south of Niamey heard some Christian programs on the radio.  After listening to the program he wanted to know more about Jesus.  Missionaries to the Fulani were able to meet with him and he has confessed faith in Jesus!  Give praise for this new Fulani Christian.  Pray for him to have courage to live and give testimony about his new faith.
 
3)  Missionary to the Western Niger Fulani, Cherry Faile has started new outreach groups in villages near her village southwest of Niamey.  Cherry reports that one certain village is very spiritually oppressed.  Pray for Cherry to have all of the right words to say to share the Truth of the scripture with these Fulani.  Pray for her safety as she travels to these villages that are all very isolated bush villages.  Pray for the people who hear the Bible stories that God would soften their hearts towards the Gospel.
