Susu, Soso of Senegal

Susu, Soso of Senegal
Family is very important in Susu society, and Susu often live as extended families. Although good social relationships are valued, there are often conflicts with neighbors. Although Western clothes can be obtained in the markets, most Susu women seem to prefer African dress. The Susu are strongly Muslim but combine their Islamic faith with traditional beliefs, such as the existence of spirits who inhabit certain areas, and the belief in sorcerers who have the power to change into animals, cast evil spells on people, or heal people from ailments.
Ministry Obstacles
The Muslim Susu honor Jesus as a prophet but not as the Son of God.
Outreach Ideas
The New Testament is available in the Susu language, as are other good resources such as the Jesus film. Pray for workers to take these to the people.
Pray for the followers of Christ
There may be a handful of Christians among the Susu of Senegal. Pray for these and those who will soon join their numbers. Pray they live holy lives, and learn to walk in the power of God's Spirit.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray for improved medical facilities, and for clean drinking water for the Susu people.
Scripture Focus
"Through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations." Romans 1:5
