Rendille of Kenya
The Rendille have lived a nomadic life in north central Kenya. They now live in large semi-permanent villages of married men, women and children and move two to three times each year. Harassed constantly by the more powerful groups of Oromo and Turkana, they lead an extremely harsh existence. Their religious ceremonies are similar to Old Testament Jewish traditions, providing a basis for discussion of Christ's sacrifice.
Ministry Obstacles
A nomadic people is difficult to contact, and to build any kind of enduring relationship with them.
Outreach Ideas
The religious ceremonies that resemble Old Testament traditions will provide a wonderful basis for explaining who Jesus is, and what He has done for the Rendille.
Pray for the followers of Christ
Pray for the few Christians among the Rendille community, that they will be nurtured by the Holy Spirit, growing in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Pray they will put on the full armor of God, including the shield of faith.
Pray for the entire people group
Pray the Rendille will be able to live in peace and harmony with the neighboring tribes.
