Beja of Northern Africa

(BEE-ja) –

More than 20 years ago, Bible stories were told and children were cared for and valued. Now those children are adults, and some are wanting to hear the rest of the story. God says that His word “shall not return to Me void” (Isaiah 55:11 NKJV). There is beauty in the desert where the Beja live, with its various earth-toned dunes, rocks, and hills. This color palette turns to various hues of green after seasonal rains that produce grasses and desert plants. Those plants then produce seeds, some of which lie dormant in the ground while others fall into the soil and replenish the supply for the next cycle. Pray for Beja adults who have experienced seeds of God’s truth planted in them for many years. May those seeds of truth take root, grow, blossom, and multiply. “Lord, send Your laborers into these fields, ripe unto harvest. May Your Spirit cause growth, producing more seed and more growth. We believe that You are able to accomplish this by Your Spirit and for Your glory.”
