Youth Trained for Ministry in Volatile Area

Young Christians from isolated people groups are being equipped to reach their communities with the gospel. In a volatile area of southern Bangladesh called the Hill Tracts, tribal groups that culturally identify as Christians have faced a triple threat: Government forces, anti-government paramilitary groups and Islamist groups all regard them as enemies. The threats have driven these people groups out of their homes and deep into the jungle, making access to them nearly impossible. As a result, front-line workers have been discipling and training young people from these tribes, equipping them to return to their people as gospel ministers. Pray for the success of this outreach and for courage and wisdom for these young people who have committed to serving the Lord and their people.
