Mamasani in Iran

The Mamasani are a subgroup of the Luri of Iran. They have been nomads for hundreds of years. Most of the Mamasani live in western Iran. They are mainly nomads who migrate to find enough water and food for their livestock. Others work as rug weavers.

Ministry Obstacles

The Mamasani are entirely Muslim. There is no one to tell them that their eternal destiny is determined by their relationship with Jesus Christ.

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

Pray for Farsi speaking Christ followers to take the eternal gospel to the Mamasani. Pray for the development of gospel-related stories and skits in their language. Pray for disciples to focus on the Mamasani and for prayer warriors to intercede on their behalf. Pray for Mamasani elders to have dreams of the risen Christ.
