East Timorese youth growing up in a newly independent country are hungry for a sense of belonging. Some are finding it in the wrong places. Many young men are joining martial arts groups, some of which have an occultic slant. Members of a popular group have to offer animal sacrifices and wear belts dipped in chicken blood. They also claim to have the power to make others sick. Animism and witchcraft are pervasive in this nominally Catholic country.
P R A Y:
For the light of God to dispel the blindness that is in the hearts of many Timorese.
Ask Jesus to manifest Himself to God-fearing men and women who don't yet have a personal relationship with Him.
Intercede for local Protestant churches to be spirit-filled witnesses for the Kingdom.
