Prayer Points

There has been no indication any of the Moger have come to follow Jesus Christ. However, we can have confidence there will be believers someday among the Moger, and we can pray for them even now. Pray they will be zealous to know and serve the Lord.

Pray the Moger people will come into contact with Christian believers in other communities who are real disciples of Jesus, people who will demonstrate the love of Christ to them.

Pray for the Moger people to have the spiritual hunger it takes to seek and find the Lord of lords.
