Residing in the Pamir Mountains, they have kept their language and culture fairly isolated. The land is harsh, so this agricultural community grows only what they can eat and practices small-scale animal husbandry. Sarikoli Tajik families are composed of multigenerational households, with strict roles and traditions. For centuries, they have lived in tribal and clan structures with the tradition of following Shia Islam. Like the Uighurs and Kyrgyz, they have been victim to the Chinese government's crackdown on ethnic and religious minority groups.</p> <h4>Ministry Obstacles</h4> <p>There are few believers among the Sarikoli Tajiks, and they do not have many ministry resources. Their language is not written and differs from the Tajik language, so they must use the Uyghur language to communicate to outsiders. Nearly all Sarikoli Tajiks adhere to the Shia sect of Islam.</p> <h4>Outreach Ideas</h4> <p>Agricultural development workers who are equipped with the understanding of Christ would have an opening with the Sarikoli Tajiks.</p> <h4>Scripture Focus</h4> <p>"Once you were not a people, but now you are God鈥檚 people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy."  1 Peter 2:10</p> <h4>Scripture Prayer</h4> <p>Pray for the Lord would to extend His mercy to this people group and that many of them become God鈥檚 children.</p> <h4>Prayer Focus</h4> <p>Pray that soon-to-be Christians would continue to seek the knowledge of the true God. Pray that Sarikoli Tajik hearts would crave their key role in God's redemptive plan. Pray for a Disciple Making Movement.</p> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-md-4 center"> <h4><a href="https://joshuaproject.net/people_groups/18692">Sarikoli Tajik</a> in <a href="https://joshuaproject.net/countries/CH">China</a></h4> <center> <table class="table-upg-of-day"> <tr> <td>People Name:</td> <td><a href="/people_groups/18692" title="Click for a listing of Countries this People Group lives in.">Sarikoli Tajik</a></td> </tr> <tr><td>Pronunciation:</td><td>sar-ree-KOR-lee TAH-jeek</td></tr> <tr> <td>Country:</td> <td><a href="/countries/CH" title="Click for a listing of all People Groups in this Country.">China</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td>10/40 Window:</td> <td>Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Population:</td> <td>44,000</td> </tr> <tr> <td>World Population:</td> <td>44,000</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Language:</td> <td><a href="/languages/srh" title="Click for a listing of all People Groups speaking this Language.">Sarikoli</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Primary Religion:</td> <td><a href="/religions/6" title="Click for a listing of all People Groups with this Primary Religion.">Islam</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Christian Adherent:</td> <td> 0.01% </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Evangelical:</td> <td> 0.01% </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Bible:</td> <td>Translation Needed</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Ministry Resources:</td> <td> No </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Jesus Film:</td> <td> No </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Audio Recordings:</td> <td> No </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Status:</td> <td><a href='/listings' style="color: #770000;">Unreached</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="vertical-align: bottom;">Progress Level:</td> <td> <div id="gauge_container"> <div class="data gauge_wrapper"> <div class="gauge_colors"> <a href="#" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#progressScale"><img class="prog_img" src="/assets/img/gauge/gauge-1.png" alt="Progress Gauge" class="btn" trigger="hover" /></a> <div class="modal fade modal-standard" id="progressScale" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="basicModal" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="modal-dialog modal-scale"> <div class="modal-content"> <div class="modal-header"> <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true"><img src="/assets/img/btn-close-modal.png" /></button> <span class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">Progress Scale</span> </div> <div class="modal-body center"> <div> The Joshua Project <a href='/global/progress'>Progress Scale</a> is an estimate of the progress of church planting among a people group, people cluster, country or language.
