Dharkar of Nepal

Dharkar of Nepal A scheduled caste, the word dharkar connotes their occupation of rope or cane making. They sell bamboo products directly in the daily market for cash. They accept food and water from the Rout, Gond, Teli, and Kumbhar. Their literacy rate is very low because their children are engaged in wage labor. Ministry Obstacles The literacy rate is quite low for this tiny community in Nepal. The Gospel of Christ needs to come to them in story or recorded form. Outreach Ideas Pray that Christians in tribes near the Dharkar community will be led by the Lord's Spirit to take the Gospel to the tiny Dharkar group. Pray for the followers of Christ There are no known believers in the Dharkar community, in either India or Nepal. But pray for the ones the Lord will soon call to himself. Pray they will be accurately taught the ways of Christ, and will not mix their former belief system with the purity of the Gospel of Christ. Pray for the entire people group Pray this small group in Nepal will be able to find employment and sales of the goods they produce.
