Introduction
The Mamasani people are a subgroup of the Luri people of Iran. They have been nomads for hundreds of years. Most of the Mamasani people live in Buyer va-Kohkiluyeh Province in western Iran. The Mamasani people are mainly nomads who migrate to find enough water and food for their livestock. Others work as rug weavers.
Ministry Obstacles
The Mamasani people are entirely Muslim. There is no one to tell them that their eternal destiny is determined by their relationship with Jesus Christ.
