The Rehar are a scheduled caste of India who live in the state of Himachal Pradesh. They speak Gadiali and other local languages of Himachal Pradesh.
The Rehar used to make ornaments of base metals but now their main work is agriculture. They have several clans related to their ancestry.
Hinduism is their religion. They worship family and village gods along with some of the gods of the Hindu pantheon.
The Rehar people need to allow God the Father to direct their lives so they can experience life to the full.
Pray that Indian believers will lead the Rehar into a Christ-ward movement. Pray that gospel materials will help them come closer to the Savior. Pray for faithful intercessors and workers. Pray for a disciple making movement.
Scripture Prayers for the Rehar in India.
