The Matangi of India are an unengaged, unreached people group numbering 950 who practice Hinduism. They are primarily a Telugu-speaking people living in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The term “Matangi” originally referred to a virgin dedicated to the goddess Matangi, and the Matangi was an institution of these people and their children. As the official institution gradually declined, the term was used instead to refer to this people group. Please pray that God will send believers to this people to share the gospel with them, and ask that their hearts will be receptive to receive Christ. Pray that the Matangi will be dedicated to the Lord as His children. Pray that churches will be planted among them and that many Matangi will one day be before the heavenly throne, praising Jesus. “You shall be holy to me, for I the LORD am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine” (Leviticus 20:26 ESV).
