The Razu are a landowning caste. They claim to be descendants of Rajput princes and army officers who served the various empires and dynasties of North India. The Razu received land for their military service. The Razu work as business owners and government administrators in law enforcement and as members of the Indian Armed Forces. They also own tracts of land that are frequently cultivated by lower castes. Rajput parents encourage their sons and daughters to graduate from universities and to enter into good paying professions.

High status is a barrier to the gospel in India. Most Christians are from modest backgrounds, and Hindus do not want to be a part of a lower social group.

Pray that the Lord humbles the Razu and they see their need for a savior.
Pray that the Lord will start a movement of Razu families experiencing God's blessings.
Pray for workers to sow God's word into Razu families, healing and strengthening households with God's blessings.
