Jebala in Morocco

Jebala in Morocco
The word Jbala comes from Moroccan Arabic Jbel, which means mountain. Thus Jbala means mountain people. A man or boy is called a Jebli while a woman or a girl is called a Jebliya. They traditionally have lived in or near the Rif mountains in northern Morocco. The Jebala favor pointed-toed leather slippers, and reed hats are traditional. Their musicians sometimes perform Sufi trance music.
Ministry Obstacles
Access to these people is limited. Pray for creative ways for Christians to minister to them.
Outreach Ideas
Gospel radio is very helpful in this region that is difficult for outsiders to access.
Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray for the few followers of Christ to cling strongly to Jesus and not be discouraged as they face trials. Pray they will learn to speak to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray the Jebala community will be able to care adequately for their families, and for good schools for their children.
Scripture Focus
'Again he says, "Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people." And again, "Praise the Lord all you Gentiles, And let all the peoples praise Him." Romans 15:10-11
