Northern African and Middle Eastern Unengaged Peoples

Lostness is tangible among the Kujarge people of Chad. The Sudanese Arabic word “kujarge” translates as “sorcerer.” The Kujarge people are known for their witchcraft. “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone” (Isaiah 9:2 ESV). Pray for the light of the gospel to shine in their communities and for the Kujarge people to turn from darkness to the light. This small population of 3,500 people speak the Kujarge language. Their language is becoming extinct, and there are no Scripture resources available in Kujarge. There are, however, Scripture resources as well as gospel recordings and broadcasts in Chadian Arabic, Sudanese Arabic, and other languages in the vicinity of the Kujarge people. Pray for the Kujarge people to have access to God’s Word in a language that they can understand. Pray for them to walk into the light.
