The Hima of Uganda, also known as the Nyankore, have a population of about 300,000. They are located in the southwestern corner of Uganda, bordering Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Although there has been an evangelical presence among the Hima in Uganda, and there is a written Scripture in their language, there are no missionaries specifically working to get the gospel to the Hima. There are less than 50 known believers among the Hima, and no known Hima churches.
All the (Hima) will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name. Come, and see God’s deeds O (Hima) — awesome work on your behalf. He turned the sea into dry land. Rejoice in him for he rules by his might forever. His eyes watch you O (Hima people)! Don’t be rebellious and rise up against him. (Psalm 66:4-7)
