Unreached of the Day
Pray for the Huichol in Mexico
Joshua Project presents unreached to the day as we travel to Mexico to pray for the 61,000 Wecho, also known as the "Wehareka" or simply people. Historically, the western Sierra Madre accidental mountains insulated them from outside influences. Today, the Wecho will integrate the general Mexican society and economy. Most Wecho will provide for themselves by growing and raising their own food and extended families lived together in Rancho settlements. The Wecho believe in shamanic power or the spirits and follow shamanic traditions. They believe that when a person dies, the soul embarks on a five-year journey through the underworld. After the journey, the soul returns to earth and is captured by a shaman in the form of a rock crystal. The crystal is placed on the family altar to be anointed with blood and offered food. Today, there is an unprecedented opportunity to reach the Wecho with the New Testament and Jesus' film available to them. Amen. As the prophet Zechariah prophesied, "Let's pray the Wecho will join themselves to the Lord, and many nations shall join themselves to the Lord in that day and shall be my people. Pray that God would give Wecho believer's boldness to share the love of Jesus with their own people." Thanks. I'm Arcordic.
