 2007 and a complete Bible translation was not available until 2012. The Jesus Film and audio Gospel recordings are also available in their heart language, but there is not yet a radio broadcast reaching out to them. There are no known churches or believers among this people group. They desperately need missionaries to go to them to live among them, earn the trust of the local leaders, and courageously share the gospel there.
* Ask God to call Christian workers who are trained in the Chechen language to take the Gospel to the Chechens in Austria.
* Ask God to soften the hearts of the Chechen people in Austria, especially the local elders, so they would be receptive to the Gospel.
* Pray for peace between Chechnya and Russia.
* Ask God to bring salvation to the Chechens and provide opportunity for strong local churches to be planted among them.
