This month, we will start with Buddhist peoples in this region where Guatama Buddha taught his disciples. Buddhism was intended to be a reform movement within Hinduism, but it split off and became more entrenched in East Asia. However, there are many Buddhist people groups in South Asia, mainly in the strongholds of the Himalayan Mountains. The peoples in this part of the world are suspicious of anything foreign, so the gospel must come to them within a language and culture that doesn't feel foreign to them. One group that you will pray for this month was eager to hear the gospel via cassettes once they noticed that the message was in their language.
