The Lokono are an Arawak people who live primarily along the northern fringe of South America. Though the largest number is in Guyana, they also live in French Guiana, Suriname, Venezuela and the United States.
In the United States, the Lokono Arawak blend in with other Latin American groups.
Traditionally they had a flexible way to deal with spiritual matters. A Lokono Arawak can associate with their traditions, or they may chose not to. This has affected the way they view the Christian faith. The Lokono Arawak are most highly reached with the gospel in Guyana, but there is a strong Christian presence among them in all the other nations where they live except French Guiana.
The Lokono Arawak need to put all their trust in Jesus Christ, King of kings.
Pray for Lokono Arawak Christ followers to disciple others in the ways of Jesus Christ and to teach them to do the same.
Pray for a Holy Spirit revival in their churches, leading many to the abundant life promised by the Lord.
Pray for the Lord to provide for all their physical needs according to his mercy and glory.
