| Unreached, Hidden Tribe Found Deep in Peruvian Jungles |
|
Source: Christian Aid Mission Missionaries with Segadores (Reapers) in Peru recently learned of a hidden tribe of people who have never been reached by anyone from the outside world, much less Christians bringing the gospel.
In order to reach these people, travelers must go through areas where they put themselves at risk to venomous snake and spider bites -- or where they might be shot at with bow and arrows. Even so, Segadores is preparing to send a team through miles of dense tropical forest, down unfamiliar rivers in hopes of finding this unreached people group. Looking for a way to protect the missionaries, the ministry has a prototype of an electrical device that is proven to neutralize the poisonous venom of snakes and spider bites, but needs help in perfecting and manufacturing the instrument. Vest-like shields are also being developed to be worn once the missionaries think they are near an area of danger from arrows. The missionaries will also be learning special strategies for winning the trust of the natives once contact with them has been made. |
