Description: The origin of the Aoka is obscure but it is believed that they descend from Hmu tribesmen who migrated to Hunan province long ago. They are officially included under the Miao minority people cluster in China. Their language is a blend between Miao and Xiang Chinese.
Prayer Points:
• Although the Scriptures are available to the Aoka in the literary form of the Xiang Chinese language, most cannot read. Pray for the production and distribution of audio scriptures in their unique dialect.
• There is yet no permanent missionary work among the Aoka. Pray that God would raise up a team of believers from Hunan province to reach out to the Aoka and establish a long-term presence among them.
• A few Aoka have come to Christ in recent years. Pray for their organization into a church, and for the training and development of an Aoka pastoral and evangelistic ministry.
A Prayer: Heavenly Father, may the Aoka put their hope in your son Jesus and exalt him as King and Lord over all. Open the eyes of their hearts so they might see your glory and majesty and be delivered from all darkness.
Every year 3,000 Aoka die without Christ, many of whom never hear the gospel in their lifetime. Let's do something to change that.
