HAN CANTONESE/DAN PEOPLE

HAN CHINESE CANTONESE PEOPLE GROUP

These number over 65 million and are largely concentrated in Guangdong province and Hong Kong, they are open to the gospel as they have been evangelised for over two hundred years, ever since Robert Morrison landed in China in 1807. Please pray that this openness would continue.

Many churches have been formed amongst them , but there is much formalism and legalism. Please pray for deep and powerful revival to vibrate through the Cantonese church and may they become more mission minded.

Cantonese have moved to many countries especially Singapore, UK, USA and Thailand. Here they are open to the gospel, please pray that they would be reached in these countries and active churches formed.

DAN PEOPLE GROUP

These people also live in Guangdong province and are called the Boat people, as they live on the water. They number around 4 million  and have only a few thousand Christians amongst them.

As they travel around by water, it is very difficult to establish fellowships and do discipleship amongst them.

There are ministries located in Hong Kong that specifically target these people, they will enter the boats and share the gospel. Please pray that this would lead to the forming of church family groups and that relevant and dynamic resources, would be available, they are able to understand both Mandarin and Cantonese.
