Baloch, Eastern of Pakistan
Balochis are Caucasian primarily of the Mediterranean
branch, meaning that dark hair, dark eyes, and an olive complexion are
common. Baluchi customs and traditions are conducted according to codes
imposed by tribal laws. These strong traditions and cultural values are
important to Baluch people and have enabled them to keep their
distinctive ancient cultural identity and way of life with little change
to this day. Baluchmayar, or the "Baluchiway," is the honor code by
which the Baluch live. These principles include extending hospitality
and mercy, dealing with each other honestly, and offering refuge to
strangers. These principles are preserved through songs and poetry. They
are Sunni Muslim.Ministry Obstacles The Baluch have been isolated for many years due to harsh climate, the difficulty of communicating in mountainous terrain, and their reputation as bandits. Outreach Ideas Pray that God will reveal himself in dreams and visions to the Baloch and send messengers who will share more about Jesus. Pray for the followers of Christ There very well may be no followers of Jesus Christ today within this large group. At best there are very few. However, please pray for those whom the Lord will soon call to himself. Pray they will clearly understand that eternal salvation is God's gift to them, and in gratitude they are to live a life of obedience to Christ. Pray for the entire people group Please pray for peace throughout Pakistan, and also for those within the Baloch community who are indigent, unable to care for themselves. Pray especially for children without parents and who have no proper home. Scripture Focus "Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples. For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised." 1 Chronicles 16:24-25 |
