Kanuri, Yerwa, Beriberi in Nigeria

Kanuri, Yerwa, Beriberi in Nigeria
Initially pastoral, the Kanuri were driven from North Africa by the Arabs, moving to the area around Lake Chad in the late seventh century. The Kanuri became Muslims in the eleventh century, and the area became a center of Muslim learning, reaching its height in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The Kanuri were later divided under the rule of the British, French and German African empires.
Ministry Obstacles
Their present faith acknowledges Jesus as a prophet, but denies his place as deity, the Son of God.
Outreach Ideas
Nigerian believers of other tribes may be able to communicate the Gospel message accurately and well to the Kanuri.
Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray for the believers among the Kanuri, that they would be united around the truth of the Scriptures. Pray for pastors and teachers to lead them well in the faith.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray for each Kanuri individual to soon hear the Gospel message in their own tongue, and in an accurate and understandable manner. Pray the Lord prepares them to understand and receive.
Scripture Focus
"Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, Who alone works wonders. And blessed be His glorious name forever; And may the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen." Psalm 72:18-19
