Via @changethemap - As we head to our various places of worship today, join us in prayer for the 60,000 Nghari Tibetan Buddhists among whom there are no known believers. Please pray for spiritual and societal hindrances to be overcome and for the light of the Gospel to shine brightly. ... .. The first recorded Tibetan church was built by Jesuit missionaries in Lhasa in 1726. Twenty seven baptized converts and 60 inquirers attended the church. "At the end of April, 1742, a new convert named Pu Tsering publicly refused to bow before the Dalai Lama. ... This threw the town into an uproar. Twelve of the Christians were flogged with 20 lashes each. The missionaries fled to Nepal, but their church was attacked by a mob who destroyed everything except the church bell." Today there are no known Christians among the Nghari Tibetans. #pray #prayfortibet #prayforbuddhists #changethemap #missions #worldmissions #prayforupgs
