Kulisusu in Indonesia
Although little has been written about the Kulisusu, it is known they have been settled in their present location for at least the past 400 years. They are located on the northeastern area of Buton Island, and live on the narrow hilly peninsula which juts southward separating Koro Bay on the west from the Banda Sea on the east. Most Kulisusu families have their own farmlands and work together in cultivating the land. Some Kulisusu are traders who travel to other islands in and around Indonesia or work on merchant ships. Because of the strong extended families of the Kulisusu, each working adult will share at least a part of his/her salary with the larger family. Honesty and hard work are valued among the Kulisusu people and they have an extremely low crime rate. They have been Muslim since around the 17th century.
Ministry Obstacles
No scripture or other Gospel resources are reported as available in the main language of the Kulisusu.
Outreach Ideas
Pray that the Kulisusu who travel to other islands for work may encounter God's messengers who will be drawn to share the Good News with them.
Pray for the followers of Christ
There are no known followers of Jesus today among the Kulisusu. However, please pray for those whom the Lord will soon bring to himself. Pray they will become firmly established in the faith, not doubting or drifting away.
Pray for the entire people group
Inexpensive medical care and medicine are needed in rural areas. Because of financial obstacles and other factors, the Kulisusu only seek medical help in cases of emergency. Please pray for improved medical care which is affordable.
Scripture Focus
"Thus it is written, that the Christ would suffer and rise again from the dead the third day, and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations." Luke 24:46-47
