Unreached People Group: Miao

Welcome to the mountains of Southwest China! As the wind blows across the tall green grass, we will climb up the side of the mountain past towering pine trees toward that big maple tree. Do you see it? That’s the middle of the Miao (pronounced mee-OW) village hidden far beyond roads and cities. Miao families are animists. This means they believe in spirits and think the created things around them are alive and could either help or hurt them. Life is hard in this hilly land where crops can’t grow on the side of steep slopes and water must be carried from far away. And the gospel hasn’t reached this village yet where a six-year-old girl lives with her family.
