Arora (Hindu traditions) in India
uh-ROHR-ah

There have been many times in history when the Arora have been violently persecuted. Their people were slaughtered during both the Arab and the Mughal invasions of the Subcontinent. These are resilient people, and they managed to become an influential community in both India and Pakistan. Today, many of them are prominent in business, education, medicine, finance, technology, engineering, manufacturing, entertainment, and the armed forces. Why do they seem to rise to the top? Most likely, it's because of their rigorous work ethic. It could also be because of their insistence on ensuring that their children receive a higher education.

Ministry Obstacles
When there are no Christian followers in a community, it becomes very difficult to start a movement for Christ. However, they are noted for their religious tolerance and willingness to visit sacred places of other religious communities.

Scripture Focus
"The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."  Psalm 19:1

Scripture Prayer
Pray that many from today’s people group will look to the sky, see God’s artwork, and commit themselves to following this awesome savior!

Prayer Focus
Ask God to make a way for prominent Arora from all three religious communities to find Jesus to be the only way to eternal life. Ask God to raise up Arora believers as his ambassadors to those without Christ throughout the subcontinent. Pray for a movement to Christ among the Hindu Aroras throughout South Asia.
