Details: Praise God for the many opportunities their ministry friends and church family had to share Christ during the Christmas holiday. The idea of God choosing to come to earth, to live and to die on their behalf in order to have a relationship with them is such amazing news in Japan where so many pray to idols of stone, who are unable hear their prayers and with whom no relationship is possible. Please pray for their ministry friends and church family as they are given opportunity to share more truth with those who came to Christmas events. Gujarat, State of India (Asia). An anti-conversion law was passed in 2003 that makes evangelism and church planting very difficult to do legally, but no such constraints are placed on aggressive Hinduization of tribal Christian groups such as the Dang. Pray for a government that will promote intercommunal harmony and true freedom of religion. While some tribal peoples are responding to the gospel, much need remains. There are nine districts and 128 subdistricts that are less than 0.1% Christian. There are also 19 peoples, each with populations over 100,000, who are unreached and as yet unengaged by Christian ministry. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010, www.operationworld.org
