The Kimyal Tribe Receives the Word

0 Comments

Yesterday, Joshua Harris closed his sermon (part 6 of “Nehemiah: When God Revives His People”) by showing a video of the Kimyal Tribe of West Papua, Indonesia, receiving an airplane load of New Testaments—for the first time, translated into their own language. We post the video here courtesy of World Team, the mission organization that produced it.  World Team exists to establish reproducing churches focusing on the unreached peoples of the world.

The Kimyals are sustenance farmers who were untouched by the outside world until World Team missionaries Phil and Phyliss Masters brought the gospel to their area in 1963. Phil Masters and fellow missionary Stan Dale were killed by the Yale tribe in 1968. Read more about the Kimyals at WorldTeam.org and kimyaltribe.com.
