Bohra of India Viewing:  July 14, 2010   

Bohra of India
The Bohra claim their origin from the visiting Arab community Qaum-e-Bawahas (meaning a business community, in Arabic). Allah is their only God. The Bohra specialize in the art of cloth-painting. Their attitude towards the higher education of their children is positive. The traditional as well as present occupation of the Bohra is business.

Ministry Obstacles
To follow Jesus, a person in the Bohra community risks losing much that is important, including family, friends, status, and employment.

Outreach Ideas
Sustained, focused prayer for the Bohra community is needed. Pray also for workers to take the Good News to them.

Pray for the followers of Christ
There are a few Christian believers among the Bohra community. Pray they will cling strongly to the truths of Scripture, and grow in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Pray for the entire people group
Pray the Bohra community will learn more of who Jesus truly is, the Son of God, deity. Pray they will be drawn to this Man of peace and life.

"After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb." Revelation 7:9
