Pray for Yadava of India


Yadava of India
The Yadava believe they are the descendants of king Yadu, from whom Krishna descended. Their traditional occupation is animal husbandry. They have expertise in oral traditions like sevagaridi, i.e. group singing in praise of Lord Vishnu. They freely share wells, roads, schools, crematoria, temple, etc. with other villagers.

Ministry Obstacles
Our natural human pride often prevents us from humbly accepting the free gift offered through faith in Christ.

Outreach Ideas
Christians need to build bridges of friendship with the Yadava. Their interest in oral traditions suggests an oral approach to the presentation of the Gospel message.

Pray for the followers of Christ
There are few if any believers among the Yadava today, but pray for the fellowshipping believers that will soon emerge from this community. Pray they will be zealous to know and serve the one who created them and redeemed them.

Pray for the entire people group
Pray for the Yadava community to have good schools available for their children, and for good employment opportunities.

"And those who lead many to righteousness [will shine] like the stars for ever and ever." Daniel 12:3
