Introduction

The Najdi tribe straddles what we call Arabs and what we call Bedouins, so we call them Bedouin Arabs. They consider their traditional homeland to be the Arabian Desert; however, some Bedouin groups have migrated north into the Negev Desert region. Today many Bedouins still live in Jordan, one of the first lands their ancestors inhabited, primarily raising sheep and goats. Nadji Bedouin Arabs have a relatively harsh existence. They have no permanent homes but live in portable, black tents made from woven goat hair.

Ministry Obstacles

Little or no Christian witness exists for them, nor any example of living Christianity for the Najdi Arabs to see or experience.

Outreach Ideas

Pray for the Followers of Christ

Pray for the Entire People Group

Pray for these remote Muslims to have dreams and visions of the risen Savior and be drawn to him.
Pray for workers who are willing to endure hardships, learn a difficult language, and produce gospel materials for these people who need to hear good news.
Pray for the rapid spread of the gospel among the Nadji Bedouin Arabs.
