The Jula, one of the largest people groups in Burkina Faso, live along historic trade routes in the southwest. Islam is deeply ingrained into their life and culture. Several years ago, a pastor in Burkina Faso discovered there were no known believers among the Jula. Moved by the Holy Spirit, the pastor began telling Bible stories among the Jula, and now many have put their trust in Jesus and meet regularly to story through the Bible.
“Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ.” (Colossians 4:2–3a ESV)
