A Prayer a Day for East Asian Peoples

When a Southeastern Luoluopo dies, the family organizes a “dance of the spirits.” The ceremony is meant to help the person’s soul find its way to the place where ancestors rest. Before death, members of this people group are plagued with the question, “Have I done enough, or will the spirits be angry about something I have forgotten?” To relieve some anxiety, each Southeastern Luoluopo home contains an altar to the spirit of the house and an ancestral altar, both in prescribed places. There are no known Christians among the Southeastern Luoluopo, and they have no gospel recordings or Scripture in their language. Overlooked by the world, their minds have been kept in the dark. But God knows them.

Pray they will know Jesus, whose finished work on the cross is enough for them.
