Elders are the leaders of the Karimojong people in Uganda. They appeal to god on behalf of the people and offer sacrifices to appease the spirits. When elders become Christians they are often ostracised and persecuted because they will not take part in worship at the shrines or ritual sacrifices. As a result, they are seen to put the whole community at risk. Please pray for courage and grace for these elders and that they will be a clear witness to Jesus amid these challenges.
