Moger in India
The traditional vocation of the Moger was hunting and gathering, and the name Moger is derived from a Tulu word meaning rabbit. At present, many are employed as agricultural laborers. They are Hindus and worship spirits such as Panjurli, Kallurti, Guliga, and Bobbariya. They accept water and cooked food from those considered to be high castes. They are divided into several matrilineal clans. They marry across clan lines but not outside the Moger community.
Ministry Obstacles
Most Moger live in Karnataka, described as South India's most spiritually needy state. They face the threat of militant Hindus in that state.
Scripture Focus
"Ascribe power to God, whose majesty is over Israel, and whose power is in the skies. Awesome is God from his sanctuary; the God of Israel—he is the one who gives power and strength to his people. Blessed be God!" Psalm 68:34-35
Scripture Prayer
Pray for many from today’s people group to tell of God’s power and goodness to others.
Prayer Focus
Pray that the Moger will come into contact with Christian believers in other communities who are real disciples of Jesus, people who will demonstrate the love of Christ to them.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to open their spiritual eyes.
Pray for nearby Christians to become burdened to take the good news of Jesus Christ to the Moger.
